Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites will identify the gaps and could potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they don’t steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, white ants move over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated locations, the chance for termite ingress through untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which creates a flow on effect.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a house will make it challenging to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
