Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

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

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a flow on result.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection against termites
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger for children & pets

• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Nests or mounds below trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony
