Our Primary Termite Treatment Product - Termidor SC
Suffolk Pest Control utilizes the most effective form of termite treatment and control, Termidor SC. a liquid soil treatment. The treatment objective is to treat the soil under the house where the termites must travel to reach the home.
This method requires drilling holes into the foundation wall made every foot or every other cement block. Termidor SC is injected into the holes and drains down into the foundation soil.
The Termidor SC creates a chemical barrier in the soil under the home that, if breached by termites, will cause them to die within days. The chemical works in much the same way as a disease, with infected termites transferring the chemical to others they come into contact with.
Our goal is to provide our customers with the most efficient and effective termite treatment available to protect their valuable investments. Call us today!
Three Methods of Termite Control Treatment
Treatment Method #1 treats homes with a crawl space by drilling and chemically treating the foundation wall and the soil beneath it with Termidor SC.
Treatment Method #2 is called Trench and Rod. This treatment is mostly used on homes that have a slab foundation with no crawl space. This treatment requires digging a 6 to 8” trench around the foundation and then filling it with Termidor SC which seeps into the ground around it.
Treatment Method #3 is a combination treatment using a rod to get the chemical closer to the center of the house. A long rod is attached to the chemical pump and additional Termidor SC chemical is pumped under and around the center of the house.
You Can Help Prevent Termites
There are a couple of very important things you can do right now to prevent a termite infestation so you never have to get to the point of requiring termite removal.
- Reduce or eliminate as much moisture as possible in and around your home or outbuilding will deprive termites of the moisture they need to survive. The wetter your building is, the more likely the chance you will require termite control. Having adequate drainage and directing water away from your building is paramount in termite prevention
- Eliminate ground-to-wood contact,
maintaining a gap of at least 18-20 inches between the ground and any wood on your building is another important method of preventing termites. Plan new buildings with a brick or masonry foundation. Where practical, trim back siding and skirting away from the ground, or remove piled up or sloping soil and debris from the foundation of your structure.
