Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain entry.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the possibility of termite ingress via untreated gaps is lower.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the structures that they were eating previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

In Ground Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather conditions
