Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain access.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Since the termites can not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain access through gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites from the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a compounding result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a swelling can make it challenging to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
