Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants can recognise these gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will often transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, providing a flow on and efficient effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they find no difference between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites from your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

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

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Unaffected by weather
