Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will identify the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The regularly frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the potential for termite access via untreated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, but they’re usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger to children or pets
