Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or areas cannot be treated due to access issues, then termites can detect the breaks and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in your structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in positions where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the house design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
