Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much less likely.

A frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
