There are different types of termite situations so the best treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they will going to apply one of two general termite protection strategies. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Termite pest control in Bexley residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys can have some distinct benefits that cannot be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites will recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they will not steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, white ants will pass through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual insects will pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they identify no difference between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to eliminate termites from your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

In this fashion, the colony may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
