Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided, they provide good protection for treated areas. However, if not all locations are reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access through them.

The regularly commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the chemical. Because of this, white ants go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the potential for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber that they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

The entire colony can be exterminated in this manner, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home makes it hard to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
