Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise these gaps and can potentially get in.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of as many as 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your home by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been attacking. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the nest may be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not influenced by weather
• No danger for youngsters & pets
• Environmentally Smart
