Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise these gaps and gain access.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the potential for termite ingress via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not 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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for children and pets
• Ecologically Smart
