Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will recognise the gaps and could sometimes get in.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of as many as five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after contact with them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access via possible gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to erradicate termites in the property, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus causing a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar manner, however they’re usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Environmentally sound
