Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated locations. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they won’t steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants move over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Since the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is frequently used to get rid of termites from your house, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, causing a compounding result.

An entire nest may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant 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 especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for children and pets
