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. TOP |
4. How quickly does
Termidor work?
Termites that come in
contact with Termidor will die In 3
months or less. TOP
5. How long does it last?
For 5 years. Your pest
control professional will conduct
inspections annually to make sure that
it's still working. TOP
6. Will it kill all of the
termites, or just some?
Termidor's unique mode of
action achieves 100% control of termites
in 3 months or less. This 'termite
control' is not just limited to the
termites who happen to forage in the soil
treated with Termidor. Termites are
social insects living in large nests,
often underground. Our research has shown
that termites foraging through treated
soil come in contact with Termidor but do
not die quickly, these contaminated
termites contact others in the nest (by
food transfer, grooming or just climbing
over and rubbing against each other) and
transfer Termidor to these other
termites. No other termiticide or
termite-control system has achieved the
same level of efficacy as Termidor. TOP
7. Does Termidor have an
odor?
No, Termidor is odor free. TOP
8. Is Termidor safe?
