1. Local Treatment
Only protects the small area where termites were found.
Does not protect the whole home.
Because of this, experts usually do not recommend it.
A chemical barrier is placed around the entire building.
Gives complete protection against termites entering from the soil.
Premise: protects for about 5 years
Termidor: protects for up to 8 years
A full termite inspection is done first.
A bait box is placed where termites are currently active.
Every 4–6 weeks, the technician checks the box and adds more bait.
Once termites start eating the bait, they stop damaging other wood and the colony slowly dies.
The whole process usually takes about three months.
The bait is safe for people, pets, and garden insects.
Very effective at wiping out the colony.
After the colony dies, it does not stop new termites from attacking later.
To prevent future attacks, baiting systems often include:
Termite monitoring stations placed around the home every few meters.
These stations contain wood and attractants that termites like.
They are checked every 3 months.
If termites appear in a station, bait is added to kill that colony.
Sentricon is a popular system that uses this method. It uses no harmful chemicals and ensures the colony does not move to another part of the house.
