Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some locations cannot be treated as a result of access problems, the termites may identify the breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a structure by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

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

In Ground Systems can 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 intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
