Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection around treated locations. However, if the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can identify the gaps and access the house.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will often pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the potential for termite access through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years after treatment.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are often installed around 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 intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
