Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can identify the gaps and again access the property.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites cannot identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

A frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your dwelling by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
