Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites as 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, termites may recognise these gaps and gain access.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a flow on effect.

In this way, the entire termite nest will 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 Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a structure will make it hard to have adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets
• Eco-friendly

• ‘Mud Tubes’ on the wood, floor boards, ceilings, brickwork or in underfloor areas
• Trees show signs of colonys & mounds
