Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide good protection in treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise those gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. In addition, termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the timber that they have been eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
