Cure For Termite Infestation

Termite Control/Prevention Strategies

There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Fairfield Heights; either the production of a termite barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or places cannot be treated due to access problems, then white ants may identify those breaks and gain access via them.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your structure by placing bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating. This kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even when you do not 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 Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
