It's
not too good to be true. |
|
It's
just in a different league from every other termite solution on
the planet. |
|
Termites
are a concern for homeowners in 49 of the 50 states. In any given
year termites damage more homes than fire. The cost of termite damage
is about twice that of storm damage.

| One
of the most tested termite solutions in history
Before
Termidor* was made available to American homeowners, it was subject
to some of the toughest tests in history. For eight years, grueling
USDA-Forest Service ground board and concrete slab trials in four
states tested Termidor. At every application rate and every last
location,
Termidor proved 100% effective. |
| How
Termidor's "Transfer Effect" works
 |
|
The
active ingredient in Termidor is fipronil and it works quite differently
from other termiticide active ingredients. Most termiticides are repellents,
which means they keep termites away from a treated area, rather than
killing them. These repellent termiticides also kill termites. However,
since the termites are repelled when they come in contact or just
before actually contacting pyrethroid treated soil, the 'killing power'
is less dramatic and if anyone took the time to count dead termites,
less efficient. Termidor is non-repellent. Termites can't detect it.
Since they don't know it's there, they forage freely in a treated
area.
Like other leading
liquid termiticides, Termidor is lethal to termites when they ingest
it (which they do readily since they don't know it's there). But,
unlike all other termiticides, Termidor is lethal by contact as well.
Once a termite comes into contact with Termidor, they carry it back
to the colony on their bodies. Every other termite it contacts will
itself become a carrier, contacting and infecting others. This is
known as "The Transfer Effect". |

- 100% Results After Six Years
With
Termidor, termites are killed, dead. No excuses, and a lot less waiting
around. Government and other tests in the US and abroad have
shown that in 8 years there has been no break or reduction in Termidor's
effectiveness.
Bottom line, you
can count on at least 5 year's worth of 100% termite protection when
you choose Termidor. |
Termidor
is a responsible, low dose treatment
Termidor is effective at very low application rates. Typically, when
it is applied Termidor, the active ingredient fipronil will be just
0.06%. That's a lot lower than old-fashioned termiticides and less than
most insecticides. Termidor also binds to the soil, so there's no leaching
from rainfall or irrigation. |

Question:
What makes Termidor different from other termite treatments?
Answer:
Termites can't detect it. They forage freely in a treated area. Termidor
is lethal to termites that ingest or contact it. A termite carries
it back to the colony and infects every other termite they contact.
Question:
How fast will Termidor work once applied properly to a home?
Answer:
In every test, Termidor has achieved 100% control of termites within
three months or less. That's significantly faster than termite baiting
systems, which typically take six to 18 months to control termites.
Question:
How long does Termidor last once applied?
Answer:
Time and again, Termidor is proven to have staying power. In numerous
tests, Termidor continued to provide 100% control of termites for
at least five years.
Question:
Does Termidor have/leave an odor?
Answer:
No, Termidor is odor-free.
