Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor areas can not be treated due to access problems, then termites may identify the gaps and attain access through them.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may often pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Because the termites can’t detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The most commonly used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as eight years after treatment.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a flow on result.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a building can make it challenging to install adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
