Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some places cannot be treated due to access difficulties, the white ants can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they do not steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants will go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual termites pass the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites do not identify non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to eliminate termites from the property, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, creating a compounding effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically situated throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• Ecologically Friendly
