Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

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

Because the termites can’t identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain access via breaks.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the wood that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be exterminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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 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 important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
