GenEx "Termidor Plus" Treatment
For those looking for the highest quality soil treatment, consider our "Termidor Plus" treatment. This product has shown great effectiveness, far beyond its nearest competitor with control rates approaching 100% in assessments of thousands of applications. The great effectiveness of Termidor is attributed to two factors:
(1) Non-Repellancy
Termidor is nonrepellant in the soil and, therefore, termites cannot detect it and avoid it until it is too late. Most other soil products work by repelling termites away from the structure rather than by killing them. The weakenss of repellant products is that as soon as a small breach appears in the barrier (which is inevitable over time), termites can easily reinfest the structure.
Termidor, on the other hand, actually kills the termites destroying nearby colonies to prevent them from continuing to put pressure on the structure and has an effective lifetime significantlly longer than most other soil products.
(2) The Transfer Effect
 |
The other reason for Termidor's great effectiveness, is its unique "Transfer Effect” whereby a termite which contacts the product passes it on to many other members of the colony, resulting in the death of a substantial number of foraging |
termites, and perhaps the entire colony. Based on the most recent data and studies, this product is considered, across the board, to be the best soil treatment product available.
(3) Low Environmental Impact
Finally, the Termidor product has very little odor and is considered to be one of the most low impact soil products available due to the fact that control can be achieved with a lesser volume of product—usually 8 oz or less of active ingredient for an average size home.
The "Plus" - Our Colony Bait Station System
Even the very best stand-alone treatments are not 100% effective under all circumstances and over time. This is why it is common practice in the industry to require a thorough inspection of your home at least once per year in order to maintain the guaranty. That, however, is just not good enough for us—termites can cause a lot of damage in 12 months.
 |
Instead we install our colony bait station system with every treatment. The bait stations are inspected every three months, and if termites are present, a bait is applied and the stations are checked monthly until the activity stops. This |
 |
provides a far higher level of protection than a mere once per year inspection. |
This dual level of protection greatly reduces the risk of reinfestation in the years following the primary treatment. Termites are relentless, constantly seeking to penetrate into any wood source. With the Gen-Ex dual treatment, you can rest assured as hard as the termites are working to come in, we are working even harder to keep them out.
