Soil Application
For the first time ever, it is possible to destroy subterranean termite colonies. The Sentricon® System eliminates the colony, while being non-disruptive to property owners and tenants. It provides proven, long-term protection against termite damage.
The Sentricon® System takes advantage of natural termite behavior. Worker termites constantly forage far and wide, looking for wood to feed the colony. When they find food, like the monitoring device in a Sentricon® station, they leave special scent trails to lead their nestmates to the food source.
When your authorized PCO - pest control operator - discovers termites feeding in the station, the monitoring device is replaced with a Baitube® device containing Recruit®II termite bait. With this action, the PCO initiates the exclusive Self-Recruitment procedure, which relies on the termites' natural behavior to spread the bait throughout the colony. The bait contains a substance that stops the molting process so termites can't grow. In time, the termites in the colony are affected by the bait and die.
Sentricon® treats your building and grounds more sensitively than traditional control methods. When installing Sentricon®, the PCO will not need to drill through the floor or foundation, and is not likely to disrupt landscaping.
Installation, monitoring and baiting can usually be achieved without entering your building. As a result, Sentricon® will not disrupt daily businesses or tenants.
The Sentricon® System will protect any kind of property.
