Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

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

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years following treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this manner, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the position of the colony 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 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 especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
