What is a Termite Barrier Treatment?

A Termite Barrier is a continuous liquid treated zone installed in the soil around the perimeter of your home. Termites will then have to travel through the treated zone before entering the house. We use Termidor in all Termite Barriers. Termidor is undetectable to Termites so Termites will pick up a lethal dose of Termidor if they pass through it. It will start to affect the Termites within 8-21 days, this will allow the product to spread back to the nest and affect the other Termites. Termites and the colony will then be treated before they can gain access to your home.

Termite Bait System Treatment

Termite Bait Systems are designed to treat Termites before they enter your home also.

These baits are placed around your home usually every 3 meters, These baits are usually serviced on a monthly basis, The active termites are then fed a Termite Bait that contains an insect growth regulator that will allow Termites to feed the product and spread it back to the nest and colony allowing for the Termite nest to be treated before it can attack the house.
