Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided, they provide good protection in treated locations. If not all areas are reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can identify those gaps and gain access via them once again.

The often commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may also transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they identify no difference between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding effect.

In this fashion, the entire nest may be eliminated even when the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

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 especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
