In Northbridge, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ advantages that shouldn’t be ignored.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can detect the breaks and again access the house.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain access through breaks.

The commonly used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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 particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Ecologically Friendly

• Wood which is damaged and crumbling
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on wood, floorboards, ceilings, brick work and in subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying from the colony
