Subterranean Termites infestation has been evident and has recorded a significant rise in new infestation in the past few years, with this new development there has been a need to develop new or and enhance the existing termiticides in the market.

1. Termidor 96SC

TERMIDOR 96SC

Provided by Rafiki Pest Control

Termidor 96 SC is a superior suspension concentrate residual insecticide with contact and stomach action effective for the control of subterranean termites damaging buildings and structures.

Termidor’ Active Ingredient

 Fipronil (phenyl pyrazole) 96g/l.

Fipronil disarrays the normal functioning of an insects’ central nervous system by preventing chloride ion uptake causing excess neuronal stimulation and finally resulting in death.

Termidor 96SC is undetectable by termites and once termites touch it they contact, ingest and spread the termiticide until it eliminates the entire colony. This new termiticide has a unique transfer effect whereby when one termite comes into contact with this chemical, it carries it and contaminates another termite on contact and eventually kills the entire colony faster than any bait method.

Technical Advantages of Metro 200SC

•  This powerful weapon is non-repellent, has neither odor nor color.
•  It has a fast knock-down action and will kill termites immediately on contact. 
•  Metro SC is very undetectable to termites. Stubborn subterranean termites that don’t die immediately on contact will walk and groom through it unknowingly. They will take the termiticide back to the rest of the colony, where it’ll spread deadly soil-borne diseases that will kill the entire colony.
•  Its unique ability to bond firmly into the soil and treated surfaces make it last longer, giving your wooden surfaces and forestry continued protection against termites.
