Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection for treated locations. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and get access via them once again.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated locations, the chance of termite ingress via untreated gaps is far lower.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to erradicate termites from your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
