Termite Removal/Management Systems

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at them quickly.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain ingress.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since termites can not detect non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

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 white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a structure makes it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
