Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor locations can not be treated due to access difficulties, then termites may identify the breaks and gain access via them.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

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

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even though 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.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the house design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
