What Chemical does Action use to eliminate infestations?   

Termidor controls termites both through ingestion and contact. Because fipronil, the active ingredient in Termidor, is nonrepellent, termites can't smell it, see it or feel it. As a result, termites forage freely throughout the treated zone and eat the termiticide or unknowingly pick it up and carry it back to the colony on their bodies. From then on, every termite these "carriers" contact, feed, or groom will itself become a carrier, spreading the termiticide to others.

Furthermore, because fipronil is slow acting, it allows the carrier-termites to remain active long enough to transfer the Termidor to a large number of other termites in the colony before dying. Through this "Transfer Effect™" a single termite spreads Termidor to a large number of other termites who have never been near the treated area. The result is 100% termite control in three months or less—up to six times faster than bait/monitoring systems.

In eight years of testing, Termidor has built an extraordinary track record of successful termite control. Termidor has repeatedly proven to be 100% effective against subterranean termites, including Formosans, in even the most challenging situations, climates and environments throughout the continental United States, Hawaii, Europe and Japan. To date, Termidor has been used by pest management professionals to successfully treat more than 700,000 U.S. homes infested with termites—making it the leading liquid termiticide in America.

What is a Subterranean Termite?
Subterranean termites are native to all fifty states excluding Alaska. A colony sometimes reaching several million inhabitants feeds on cellulose-based material. Colonies may be as far as twenty feet underground and still your home or business is vulnerable.

Royal Cell

The Queen, which may live up to 25 years, is seen here in a Royal Cell with the King. Thousands of eggs may be laid over a lifetime.

Termite Eggs

Eggs are cared for by workers during a two week incubation period prior to becoming nymphs.

Termites eat wood which in their natural state is helpful to the process of breaking down fallen logs, debris, and stumps off the forest floor. However, your home must be protected from termites who gain access to your home through mud tubes.
 

Nymphs will mature into one of the following: Soldier, Worker, Winged Reproductives, or Supplementary Reproductives.

Nymph Stage

Moisture, low light, and low air is a combination which is tolerant to the existance of termites. A minute space around a pipe or a crack on the foundation of your home is all they need to gain access to your home.

Soldiers and Winged Reproductives

Soldiers defend the colony from enemies, especially ants, using their armored heads and strong jaws. Winged Reproductives are the termites associated with swarms.  The swarm from a well developed colony to form new ones.

Workers

Workers are the most numerous in a colony. They are blind and sterile and forage for the colony's food.  Workers cause the most damage to your
home.

Supplementary Reproductives

 

Supplemenatry Reproductives are the replacements for the Queen if she dies. They may also produce additional eggs to increase the colony size

Termite treatment is a cost which is necessary to keep the integrity of your home intact. The longer you delay treatment, the more expensive repairs can be. Nevertheless, the most important choice you will make will be the one to decide which company will take care of your home and environment.
