Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

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

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to erradicate termites from the dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus creating a compounding result.

In this manner, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a house will make it difficult to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
