Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

The regularly frequently utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites can often transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the chance for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The commonly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to eight years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which produces a compounding result.

In this fashion, the colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a structure will make it challenging to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
