Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided, they provide good protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify those gaps and get access through them once again.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and they don’t stay away from the chemical. Because of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Since termites don’t detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on effect.

An entire colony may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
