Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

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

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may often transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Since termites can’t detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much reduced.

The often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the home by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar way, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the house design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
