Termite Removal

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at them quickly.

In Clarendon, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ advantages that shouldn’t be dismissed.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some areas can’t be treated due to access issues, the termites will identify the breaks and gain access through those areas.

The regularly commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they identify no difference between areas which are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which creates a compounding effect.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
