Termidor
Termidor is one of the most tested termite chemicals on the market. It has been tested in Australia in all states, and passes with flying colours.
When tests were carried out it was found that control of termites can happen in as little as five to nine weeks. When applied at the correct rate the chemical has a life span of up to eight years (providing the chemical has not broken down).

Advantages of using Termidor
- The control of termites can happen in as little as five to nine weeks.
- When applied at the correct rate the chemical has a life span of up to eight years (providing the chemical has not broken down).
- Termidor is a safe chemical once it has dried and bonded with the soil. It has no odour, and is water based.
- Termidor has been extensively tested under Australian conditions, including the treatment of 22 termite-infested houses across five states under an experimental use permit. The results were outstanding. In every state, 100% control was achieved within 9 weeks.
- When applied according to the label directions, Termidor has minimal impact on the environment.
How it works
As termites are social creatures and live in colonies, when a Termidor affected termite returns to the colony it shares the infection around, other termites become affected and are then doomed.
Through this unique “Transfer effect”, the chemical can cause some of the nest to be killed off or in some cases the entire nest. This process is aided by the fact that Termites may take weeks to die depending upon the concentrate of Termidor that the termites have been exposed to.

When applied the chemical moves through the soil away from the building and creates a buffer in the soil that has a decreased concentration of chemical the further it is from the building in the soil.
