How Does It Work ? DFW Pest Control gives you the best of all the available treatments CUSTOMIZED to your homes exact needs. DFW Pest Control kills termites and protects your home in 2 ways.
First, using Termidor, we kill termites on contact. This protects your home from termite damages over and above what has already occurred.
Second, (optionally) we install termite locators around the outside of your home to establish a feeding connection with the colony. When termites are detected in the termite locators, a slow acting material is placed into it that kills off the worker termite population. This ensures that the termite colony is dealt with along with the chemical barrier protection of your home. 2 ways of killing termites and protecting your home, not just 1.

Outdoors, a shallow trench is hand formed around the exterior of the structure to a depth of 4-6". Termidor is applied into the trench at a rate of 4 gallons per 10 linear feet. The average home requires 80 gallons of Termidor. Next, all attached porches and garages that are a separate pour from the main foundation and have an expanion joint attached to the main foundation are drilled and the expansion joint treated. This is done by drilling a small 1/2 inch hole completely through the cement to allow Termidor to be injected underneath and into the soil. After treatment all cement holes are patched and swept clean.
Indoors, plumbing penetrations, and slab openings (slab foundations), are treated by injecting Termidor foam into the wall voids completely surrounding the plumbing or penetration. The Termidor foam allows Termidor to soak and dissolve into the wood thereby protecting it against termite attack. In some situations, drill holes may be needed to allow injection of Termidor liquid below the slab foundation. All drill holes whether into the walls or cement are patched covered and sealed to your complete satisfaction. |
Once termites are eliminated from your home, DFW Pest Control recommends quarterly inspections of the termite locators and an annual inspection of your home to make sure that termites have not returned. Even though our 5 Star Termite Treatment Plan is the best available, termites have been around for millions of years. Your frequent inspections give you peace of mind in knowing that your home is protected and termites are long gone.
How Is The 5 Star Treatment Plan Different From Bait Only Systems Such As Sentricon ?
First, there are no Universities that recommend using a termite bait system without first using chemicals to kill existing termites. According to Jim Wright, North Carolina Agriculture Commissioner, "termite baits by themselves do not work".
Second, termite baits are not fed to the queens and kings of the termite colony. Anti-molting agents have no effect on mature termites since they do not have to molt. (Texas A&M)
Termite bait only systems (standalone systems) require that the termites find and feed on the termite bait stations. This takes an average of 8 -12 months. The termites then have to ingest as much as 128 grams of anti-molting agent which can take another year or two. Once the immature worker termites have ingested enough anti-molting agent, the immature worker termite population slowly dies off. However - the mature worker termite population still remains. The mature worker termite population has to die of old age and the reproductive termites have to deplete all of the internal food sources before the colony is eliminated. The entire process can take up to 6 years or longer if ever, according to Dr. Roger Gold of Texas A&M University.
DFW Pest Control's 5 Star Termite Treatment Plan uses Termidor - the best of termiticides for a quick kill and long term prevention of termite attack to the structure, and a SUPPLEMENTAL termite monitoring program to locate termites outdoors and kill them.
