Seek Effective and Long-Lasting Termite Treatment in Peoria
Termites are a very real threat. They could already be inside your home. Every year, they inflict $2 billion in damage on American soil. When it’s your property and pocketbook on the line, termite treatment is necessary. So, when signs of termites in your home become apparent, contacting the exterminators at Albert’s Pest Control is crucial. Albert’s Best Control relies on the best termite treatment solutions to drive these pesky pests away and ensure they stay away.
Why You Shouldn’t Ignore a Termite Infestation
If you have the slightest thought there might be termites in your home, contact the termite specialists at Albert’s ASAP. The risks and damages associated with termites are too great to ignore the signs of a potential infestation. Thankfully, Albert’s Pest Control knows where to look for termites and can pinpoint the source of your insect troubles. Otherwise, allowing termites to run rampant in your home can risk:
- Structural Damage – When termites eat away at the wood in your home, they can severely weaken the structural integrity of your structure’s supports and foundation. This can lead to costly repairs or, worst case scenario, complete house rebuilding.
- Decreased Property Value – A termite infestation can complicate matters when attempting to place your home on the market. Damage caused by termites can negatively impact the value of your home. In most cases, you must resolve an infestation before closing a sale.
- Financial Strain – Any costs associated with termite damage and subsequent repairs can add up quickly. You’ll likely spend thousands of dollars to restore your home if a termite infestation is left to fester.
- Health Issues – Although termites don’t directly impact the health of your home’s inhabitants, they can cause allergic reactions, lead to conditions that promote mold growth, and exude methane gas that’s harmful in large quantities.
- Pest Attraction – A home compromised by termites may have ideal conditions to attract other pests. As such, termite infestations can exasperate pest troubles that require further treatment.
TERMIDOR – The Leader in Termite Treatment Products
Although many products promise solutions—from quick fixes to slow-acting baits—Albert’s Termite & Pest Control trusts only one name: TERMIDOR. TERMIDOR is a 100 percent effective termite treatment. No exceptions. TERMIDOR has been tested more than any other termite treatment in history. Time and again, it proves itself to be the industry leader in liquid termite treatment. Its unique ingestion, contact and ‘transfer effect’ manage colonies in 3 months or less.
How Does TERMIDOR Work?
Termites feed each other primarily by passing food from mouth to mouth. They groom each other. They even contact each other as they forage for food. TERMIDOR takes advantage of these social behaviors to “infect” the colony.
A termite will likely pick up TERMIDOR in its food and carry it back to the colony on its body. That means every termite it contacts, feeds, or grooms will also become a carrier. Soon, the whole colony will be affected.
Because the active ingredient in TERMIDOR operates slowly, termites can continue their normal routines long enough to make a sizeable transfer of TERMIDOR. Boom. Three months later, no termites.
Better Termite Treatment Than Baits
TERMIDOR works faster than bait systems, which can take years to control a termite colony. The odds of termites foraging or tunneling through a space treated with TERMIDOR are much greater than a termite running into a bait/monitoring station. Consequently, TERMIDOR manages colonies 2 to 6 times faster than bait systems. Also, TERMIDOR generally costs less than the average bait system—up to half as much. Here are some additional advantages of TERMIDOR termite treatment:
- It’s virtually odorless.
- It works on all types of soils.
- It stays in the soil years later.
- Its active ingredient, Fipronil, is the same ingredient pet owners find in Front Line for flea protection.
