Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites can recognise the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites can’t detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which creates a compounding result.

The entire colony may be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, 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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
