Termites

Is Your Home or Commercial Property Under Termite Attack?
Any structure built with or containing cellulose-based materials is a target for termites. Cellulose based materials include wood of any type, wallpaper, sheetrock, MDF and even certain foam building materials. Because of this fact, even steel frame, stucco, or brick and stone structures are vulnerable to damages from termite foraging if cellulose materials are present. Whether your home or commercial structure is new or old, or even if the structure has been treated previously with a liquid termiticide, multiple subterranean termite colonies may be foraging around your structure, potentially locating entry points to enter and cause damage.

What is the Sentricon System?
The Only Termite Protection Your House Will Ever Need™.

The Sentricon® Termite Colony Elimination System establishes a new standard for protecting property from subterranean termites. It's an innovative baiting system that acts like a security system, providing continuous defense. After eliminating attacking colonies, the Sentricon System guards structures by monitoring for future invasions. As a long-term solution that's easy on the environment†, the Sentricon System is the only subterranean termite protection your house will ever need.

Property Protection: A Three-step Process Using ESP™ Technology
The Sentricon System provides property protection through a three-step process: detection of termites , elimination of termite colonies and preventive protection against reinfestation by regular monitoring for new termite activity. A highly trained and specially authorized pest management professional called an Authorized Operator installs inconspicuous Sentricon stations in the soil around the perimeter of your structure. Monitoring devices, utilizing ESP™ or "electronic sensing protection" technology are included in the stations at the time of installation. These devices are then routinely scanned by your Authorized Operator for signs of termite foraging using electronic data recording equipment. When the monitoring devices indicate termite activity, they are replaced with a Baitube™ device containing Recruit™ termite bait.

Proven Success
Extensive field tests have been completed on infested structures by the United States Department of Agriculture - Forest Service (USDA-FS) and by researchers at major universities. More than 30 scientific papers have been published on the Sentricon System and its components. The conclusion of this research is that the Sentricon System has successfully eliminated colonies of all economically important subterranean termite species in the continental United States and Hawaii in a wide variety of environments. With the Sentricon System, you can stop the destruction, or prevent it from ever happening.
