Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain access.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they won’t steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites can’t identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The most commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to 8 years following treatment.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. 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 to another area.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar way, however they are usually placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe for all the family including pets
