Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise the gaps and can potentially get in.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

Because termites cannot identify non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably reduced.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a compounding result.

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

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
