Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are several kinds of termite infestations and so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the pros, they are likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access through them once again.

The most widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they won’t stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, white ants move over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites cannot identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

The entire nest can be exterminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a building will make it difficult to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for kids and pets
