Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility of termite access via untreated gaps is lower.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is frequently used to erradicate termites in your property, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Eco-friendly
