When you call in the professionals, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention strategies. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor locations can’t be treated because of access difficulties, the termites will identify those gaps and attain access via them.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

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

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the potential of termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the wood that they were eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this way, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar manner, but they are frequently situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Environmentally Friendly
