They do play their part in breaking down wood particles in the forest but, we don't seem to appreciate their input when it comes to our homes!

America's first 100% termite solution...
Termidor is a new type of termite control that for over 5 years has faced the stiffest test that both US and foreign researchers could throw at it.
Without exception, Termidor passed with flying colors. In fact, no other termiticide in history has consistently returned '100% effective' results whenever and wherever it was used.
For you, '100% effective' means that you can now choose a termiticide that not only eliminates termites from your home or business for at least the next 5 years. It also gives you 100% peace of mind.
The most tested termite solution in history....
Before Termidor was made available to American homeowners through Termidor-certified professional pest management firms, it was subject to some of the toughest tests in history. For almost 6 years, grueling USDA-Forest Service ground board and concrete slab trials in Florida, Arizona, Mississippi and South Carolina tested Termidor every which way. At every single application rate and at every last location, Termidor proved 100% effective. No exceptions. No excuses.
Equally stringent Japanese research 7 year tests involved the formidable Formosan termite. Didn't make any difference. Termidor again proved 100% effective. There were no exceptions, and among the termites, no survivors.
Ok, but how about real trials in real homes? Since 1997, more than 100 single family swellings and apartments from New York and Texas to Florida and Hawaii were treated with Termidor. These homes varied widely in size, structure, climatic zone and soil type. The results? You guessed it. 100% control of termites was verified in every case. All within 3 months of application.
Finally, over the past 4 years more than 20,000 homes in France have been treated with Termidor. During this period there has been not a single failure or callback. Not one. Period.
What does all this data prove? Only that if you choose to have your home treated with Termidor, you're 100% likely t be 100% pleased with the results. No exceptions.

How Long Does Termidor Last?
We Have 100% Results
After 5 Straight Years.
And Counting.
With Termidor, termites are killed, dead. That's why there are no excuses.
And a lot less waiting around.
Government and other test in the US and abroad have shown that in almost 6 years there has been no break or reduction in Termidor's effectiveness. These continuously monitored tests have involved all kinds of soil, widely varying climatic conditions (from New York to Hawaii), and several different species of subterranean termites.
Bottom line, this means that you can count on a least 5 year's worth of 100% termite protection when you choose Termidor.
And unlike a bait system, Termidor gives you 100% protection from Day 1. There's no long waiting period where termites are hopefully attracted to the bait, and the building to be protected is left entirely defenseless.
This data does not imply any sort of recommendation by USDA-FS. These are reprinted from USDA-FS reports in various pest management trade magazines.
Its It Safe? Does It Smell?
And Other Vital Questions
Is it safe?
Termidor is effective at very low application rates. Typically, when your pest management professional applies Termidor that active ingredient fipronil will be just 0.06%. That's a lot lower than old fashioned termiticides and less than most insecticides. Since 1995, fipronil has been used globally for flea and tick control on millions of cats and dogs. Fipronil is also used around the world to protect food supplies. And since Termidor bonds to the soil, there's no leaching through rainfall or irrigation.
What does all this mean? Just that we have gone to great lengths to create a termite control product which is responsible, as well as 100% effective. Termidor is fully approved by the EPA, as well as by other government authorities around the world. It can only be applied by a specially trained Termidor certified professional, such as Balogh's Pest Control.
Does it smell?
No. Termidor has virtually no odor (which means neither you nr your family will notice anything.). Since it's applied with water, there's no solvent smell.
