Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify these gaps and could potentially gain access.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated areas, the chance for termite access via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the residence by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

The entire colony may be eliminated in this manner, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a building will make it hard to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
