TERMITE CONTROL
Termites target the structural wood of buildings and objects that derived from cellulose. Environmental conditions suitable for termite life lead to higher levels of building damage, because termites can grow optimally and reproduce. To counterattack these threats, it is crucial to find products that can protect as well as prevent further damage to your territory. The listed termiticides are the solution just as you need, to your termite problems.
MAXXTHOR 100
Multi-purpose - Approved for Use Indoors and Outdoors.
MAXXTHOR is a termiticide and insecticide formulated as a water-based suspension concentrate. If you could only have one product it would have to be MAXXTHOR. The perfect choice for general insect control and termite management -INDOORS and OUTDOORS.
MAXXTHOR is a long-lasting insecticide that provides control of termites, ants, cockroaches, mosquitoes, flea, bed bugs and flies, when applied in an approved manner by your licensed, professional pest manager.
MAXXTHOR is a pyrethroid insecticide. This means it is modelled on pyrethrum which is a natural extract of the pyrethrum daisy.
Only professional pest control operators have the experience, training and knowledge to protect your home from the threat of termites and other pests. MAXXTHOR was developed and formulated specifically for professional pest management treatments.
PROTHOR 200 Termiticide
Now with FIVE YEARS Guaranteed Protection
When applied to soil at recommended concentrations, PROTHOR is undetectable by termites as they tunnel through it. Since termites can’t detect PROTHOR treated soil, they can’t avoid it. And, when termites do tunnel in soil treated with PROTHOR, they are killed by their contact with PROTHOR.
When termites unknowingly tunnel through PROTHOR treated soil, they accumulate PROTHOR on the outside of their bodies. PROTHOR does not immediately kill termites exposed to it. So when a termite is exposed to PROTHOR treated soil, the delayed toxicity of PROTHOR allows for a period of time after exposure to PROTHOR during which a PROTHOR contaminated termite can interact with non-exposed termite nestmates.
Because termites habitually clean or groom each other as part of their social behaviour, termites that clean termites recently exposed to PROTHOR are themselves secondarily exposed to PROTHOR and killed. This transmission of PROTHOR from termite to termite which cannot be detected or avoided by termites is referred to as the PROTHOR Viral effect.
Termites are cannibals and when a termite dies their nestmates quickly eat them. Because the cannibal nestmates are unaware of the presence of PROTHOR on the dead nestmate they are eating, the nestmates are killed, thereby multiplying the effects of PROTHOR.
The active ingredient in PROTHOR has some very special and unique soil binding properties. Chemists call these special properties Hysteretic Binding. This unique chemistry means that PROTHOR is relatively slow to bind to soil particles, but once it does bind, it grips very tightly. This means better dispersion of the PROTHOR through the soil when it is applied.
ULTRATHOR Water-based Termiticide and Insecticide
ULTRATHOR provides protection against termites and other insect pests, attacking your property together with long-term residual termite control. With its unique mode of action, we guarantee that ULTRATHOR will provide proven protection against termite entry for up to 8 years or more.
ULTRATHOR is non-repellent. This means that insects are totally unaware of its presence around your home. So, they continue their normal activities, totally unaware that it is slowly building up in their bodies, until it reaches a lethal dose. And no more termites or other insects!
ULTRATHOR is toxic to insects by contact or ingestion. It causes death by disrupting their nervous system. It binds to three types of calcium-channels on the membranes of insect neurons, preventing calcium ion influx into the cell. One of these channels is controlled by the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and the other two are controlled by glutamate. The presence of three different target sites accounts for ULTRATHOR’s high potency.
ULTRATHOR displays selective activity due, in part, to the fact that glutamate-mediated chloride channels are unique to invertebrates, like insects and termites. Also, fipronil binds tightly to the GABA controlled chloride channel of insects than to that of mammals or birds. This increases the margin of safety for people, pets and other animals. Fipronil is also non-toxic to earthworms.
ULTRATHOR adsorbs tightly to soil, has low solubility in water, and a low vapour pressure; as do its environmental degradates. Low application rates, combined with ULTRATHOR formulation also reduces the risk of run-off.
