Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect these gaps and again access the home.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the wood that they have been infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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 Baiting Systems are generally installed around 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 white ants before they breach the perimeter.
