Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Because termites cannot detect non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to erradicate termites in your property, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the timber. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, creating a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even when you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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 discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a structure will make it difficult to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
