Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants can recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites cannot detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the design of a swelling makes it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
