Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Because the termites can not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your house by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently 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 can be utilised in a similar way, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the house design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
