Termite Control: Transfer Effect Versus Domino Effect
Why is Termidor Much Better than Premise?
Subterranean Termites swarm and travel every spring to recreate and spread out according to well-known Entomologist Gregg Henderson. Dr. Henderson PhD is a leading authority in the area of Entomology and often contributes both to publications and talking engagements at market conferences as you can see from exactly how often his name is on the schedule in the link to the 2014 National Conference on Urban Entomology. Entomology is the study of bugs and insects in general, yet Dr. Henderson has ended up being an extremely quotable image in the business particularly with termites. He just recently led a research on the Transfer Effect vs. the Domino Effect.
The "transfer effect" is the industry's preference and the reason for the research. It is the result that originates from the use of the termiticide Termidor. The "domino effect" of a termiticide, referred to as Premise, is an extremely comparable pesticide for eliminating termites. Nevertheless, as Dr. Henderson and his associates emphasized, more pest control businesses choose Termidor over Premise in spite of it being a much older termiticide. The analysts wished to know why the market didn't switch to Premise. From previous researches, they found out that Termidor was more efficient. However they wished to comprehend why it was moved by termites more frequently than Premise, leading to even more fatalities.
Both kinds of termiticide are liquid-based sprays that are intended to thrill the termites' nerves then trigger the termite to pass away of over-excitation. It's kind of like providing the termites crack. They then spread out the love around the nest and even more termites are impacted by the toxin. Both are basically odorless and undetectable to the termite. So the termite gets the toxin and spreads it to its friends back at the nest. Thus, the names "Transfer Effect" and "Domino Effect." Though both kinds of termiticide deal with the exact same physiological path, it had formerly been discovered that Termidor did spread out around the nest more and eliminate a considerably bigger part of the nest.
But why? Premise works too swiftly. According to the research, within 9 hours of exposure, the initially affected termites stop moving and begin "resting." Their antennae will begin to sag and they stop interacting, and they dig less. Simply put, they begin to look ill. Since they look ill, the remainder of the nest stays away from them. As a result, the "domino effect" does not occur to very many in the nest.
Termidor, on the other hand, revealed more thrilled termite workers; they are moving more, digging more, and interacting typically. Simply put, these creatures appear like they're not just healthy workers, they're the "life of the party" workers. They appear to have the most energy. This makes it easy for them to basically make friends and win over other termites. Then, after spreading out Termidor around the nest, the initially-contaminated termites go from active to dead. So yes, Termidor is much better than Premise. See the complete clinical research post to learn more: Transfer Effect vs. Domino Effect.
Dr. Henderson concludes the post with a closing idea. These termiticides work best when put as near the nest as possible; near the established termite traffic locations. Licensed Termidor Technicians at Magic Pest Control can provide a complimentary termite evaluation and ensure that, if there are indications of a termite nest, Termidor is being put properly.
