Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor some areas cannot be treated as a result of access issues, the white ants can identify those gaps and attain ingress via those areas.

The most widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated areas, the potential for termite access through untreated gaps is far lower.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to 8 years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your dwelling by placing bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are eating. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be exterminated, 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 may 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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
