Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated areas. If not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access via them.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the property 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 will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a compounding effect.

An entire colony can be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Ecologically smart
