Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some locations cannot be treated as a result of access problems, the white ants will detect the breaks and gain access via them.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants may also pass these chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites can not identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The most widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is not known.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly installed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
