Ants
http://www.htpestdefense.com/ant-control/
Ants are among the most prevalent and persistent pest encountered around homes and buildings. They may enter your house or property through the smallest openings, foraging for food and water, or harborage. They are generally attracted to sweet based food and protein but will also foray on greased based foods. Once they find a food source, ants will leave a pheromone trail for others to follow.
Ants Infestation
If you've seen a few ants creep in, they might be looking around for food and water. Once they found what they're looking for, they will settle somewhere near the food source for good and others will follow. Once settled they can contaminate food, build unsightly mounds on your property, and cause structural damage by hollowing out wood and textiles for nesting.
Threat
Outdoors, ants play an important role in the environment. But when they move in to your house or property, they are not just a nuisance but may pose a threat to your health as well. They may foray on your favorite food and eventually contaminate them. Aside from being visual annoyance, ants can hollow out wood, destroy textiles by feeding on the soiled portions, left holes on gnawed fabric and rubber goods. Some species such as fire ants inflict painful stings, which can trigger allergic reactions to some people.
Ant Control and Management
Temprid SC
Temprid offers dual mode of action against tough pests by combining the broad spectrum, fast-acting control of beta-cyfluthrin with the systemic residual control of imidacloprid.
Combines with its flexible use pattern for indoor and outdoor use, it has been proven to provide premium performance and efficacy against a broad spectrum of important pests.
HAS Technology
But Temprid is much more than just a mixture. It contains Bayer’s unique “Homogenised Active Solution” (HAS) technology that maximises the performance of both actives by providing:
Better coverage of treated areas
Better insect exposure to both actives
Better suspension in the tank
Fast Knockdown
Temprid’s technology enables up to 2x faster knockdown. This means you and your customers see results fast – even under the harshest of conditions.
Temprid trials on wooden surfaces showed 100% knockdown in 30 minutes, which was twice as fast as other brands tested.
Longer Residual Performance
Temprid lasts. This means you don’t have to spray as often – even when used outdoors.
On exposed surfaces, Temprid has shown 3x longer residual performance against German cockroaches and 2x longer residual performance against houseflies when compared to the standard micro-encapsulated product (well-known for its long lasting effect).
Effective Resistance Management
The two active ingredients in Temprid have different modes of action. This makes Temprid an ideal resistance management tool.
Temprid has shown both better knockdown and 100% control against pyrethroid-resistant cockroaches.
Temprid can be relied upon to control even the toughest pest populations.
Perimeter Pest Management with Temprid
Managing pests around the outside (perimeter) of structures is becoming increasingly important. The goal of perimeter pest management is simple:
To stop pests outside before they enter the home or business.
Perimeter pest management minimises disturbance as well as indoor chemical use whilst providing effective control of many pests at their source.
Temprid is ideally suited to perimeter pest management due to its longer residual properties and control of a broad range of pests.
The flexibility of being able to use Temprid for both indoor and outdoor pests makes it the only product you’ll ever need.
