Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can sense these gaps and once again access the house.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

As termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a flow on result.

In this way, the nest may be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the building design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
