Termiticide Treatment: The Most Effective Termite Control
Which Termiticide Products Are Most Effective?
So Pest Of uses termitcide for our termite control. The brand we use and are accredited to use is Termidor as it is the best product on the Australian market and it is backed by a warranty.
Termidor is a liquid termiticide that provides a non-repellent soil treatment to protect buildings from subterranean termites. It’s highly effective and trusted by over 400,000 homeowners across two decades.
When preventing termites it is vital to use a non-repellent barrier in the soil, ensuring termites cannot detect the treated area and thereby providing effective control of the infestation.
What Are The Environmental Impacts Of Termiticide Use In Australia?
Using termiticides in Australia can have various environmental impacts. It is important to choose products that are specifically designed to minimize harm to the surrounding ecosystem. Proper application is crucial to prevent contamination of water sources and to protect non-target species. Regulations and guidelines provided by environmental authorities should be strictly followed.
A crucial advantage Termidor has over many other products is that it doesn’t repel termites
Unlike older termite treatments, termites cannot detect Termidor. They continue to move through the soil as usual, coming into contact with the product. Termidor eliminates termites through both contact and ingestion.
Even if termites are not feeding, they will still be killed when they come into contact with it. This is because they are unaware that they have ingested or touched the product.
By avoiding detection, Termidor ensures that termites are actively engaging with the treated area, effectively reducing the risk of more termites infesting your home. This makes it a preferred choice for termite control.
The Genuine Termidor Transfer Effect
One significant benefit of Termidor is how termites unknowingly carry it back to their nest. Social insects like termites live in large colonies, always feeding and grooming each other. When termites come into contact with Termidor, they spread it to others in their colony. The affected termites will then transfer Termidor through feeding or contact.
Even though Termidor acts slowly on individual termites, this delay ensures they have enough time to spread it throughout their nest. This process can effectively control entire termite populations more quickly than other treatments. By the time the termites realize what has happened, the damage is already done to the entire colony.
Termidor: Invisible And Unmatched
Termidor‘s unique combination of being undetectable in the soil and its effective Transfer Effect sets it apart from other termite control products. Once termites come into contact with Termidor, they carry it back to their nest and the chemical is spread throughout the colony, affecting even those termites that hadn’t directly interacted with the treatment.
By being undectable, this is what makes Termidor so effective and reliable. The treatment works gradually, giving termites ample time to transfer the chemical to others in the nest, ensuring that the entire colony is reached. Termidor has been used successfully in over 400,000 homes and has earned a reputation for its superior performance.
Key Benefits of Termidor
- Non-repellent: Termites do not detect it, so they do not avoid it.
- Transfer Effect: Termites transfer the chemical to others, impacting the entire colony.
- Proven Performance: Successfully used in over 400,000 homes.
This combination of characteristics makes Termidor an excellent choice for long-lasting and effective termite control.
