Termite colony elimination system. This technology uses a bait-system based on hexaflumuron that keeps termites from molting (shedding their exoskeleton), a process they must undergo to survive. It is applied specifically in termite active areas, offering high performance and reduced hazard. Conventional termite control uses large volumes of pesticides in large areas of soil surrounding houses or buildings to create a barrier. These liquid treatments only kill a fraction of termites and the remaining population can move under or around the barrier. This method is wasteful, contaminates soil, and exposes hazardous chemicals to humans.
