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 areas can’t be treated due to access difficulties, then white ants may identify those gaps and gain ingress through them.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites can not identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the building by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they were attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this fashion, the whole colony can be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house can make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
