Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites will identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

Because termites do not detect non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The commonly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a house by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they were eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, but they’re frequently situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.
