Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants may identify these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after exposure to them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because termites don’t identify non-repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated places, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

The regularly common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger for children & pets
• Eco-friendly
