Typically, in Villawood, termite experts will use a chemical treatment as the preferred form removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific benefits and should also be considered.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access via gaps.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber that they have been eating previously. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony 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 can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
