Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain entry.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of as many as 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and people which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The commonly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to 8 years following treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding effect.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in places where there is termite activity.

An In-Ground System is used in a similar fashion, however they’re frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
