Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can identify these gaps and can potentially get in.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated places, the chance for termite access via untreated gaps is much lower.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites from your structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the timber. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus creating a compounding effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
