Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection in treated locations. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and get access via them once again.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites can also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

As termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

A frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are often used to get rid of termites from the dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, causing a flow on result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.
