Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The regularly commonly utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The often used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of up to eight years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a flow on effect.

In this manner, the whole nest may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently 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 location.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
