Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for protection around treated areas. However, if the treated places are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect these gaps and again access the house.

The regularly commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated locations, the chance of termite ingress via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to erradicate termites in the property, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a swelling can make it tricky to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
