Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the structure. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a flow on result.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in places where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are typically installed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
