Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify the gaps and gain entry.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

The commonly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a residual life of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

In this way, the entire termite colony 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 are 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 especially useful when the residence design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.
