Termite Control/Prevention Processes

Termite treatments alter in terms of their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are 2 main termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that try to make a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated places are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and again access the house.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of as many as five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite ingress through untreated gaps is much lower.

A frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be erradicated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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