Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites can identify these gaps and could potentially get in.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a house by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. 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 positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
