Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may often transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

Since termites can’t identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The most commonly used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as eight years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony can be exterminated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, but they are generally installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are useful when the construction of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.

• The presence of "mud tubes" on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the dwelling
• Termite nests & mounds in trees close to the house
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the nest
