Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some places cannot be treated because of access difficulties, then termites may detect those gaps and attain access via those areas.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites will also transfer these chemicals to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

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

The common used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites from your structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding result.

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

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 white ants before the perimeter is breached.
