The Sentricon® Termite Colony Elimination System just keeps evolving. Dow AgroSciences is excited to share the latest innovation to the Sentricon System — Always Active™ technology. New bait technology, annual monitoring and LID (Locate and Identify) technology combine to give business owners even more power and flexibility.


Recruit® HD termite bait is immediately available to termites in every Sentricon station at installation. Termites begin feeding on Recruit HD termite bait as soon as they find the Sentricon station and share it with others, beginning the colony elimination process and offering constant property protection from termites. Highly durable Recruit HD termite bait contains a revolutionary bait matrix that extends durability. It also contains 2.3 times more active ingredient than Recruit IV termite bait, more than enough to eliminate a typical termite colony. In termite palatability tests, Recruit HD termite bait was preferred 4-to-1 over wood and became even more preferable and palatable over time.


In April 2010, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency granted Dow AgroSciences annual monitoring for Recruit® HD termite bait. Authorized Operators can choose the service interval that best fits with their business model. However, the Sentricon System with Always Active technology can help Authorized Operators increase route efficiency and reduce labor costs since they are only required to service the Sentricon® System on a yearly basis.


LID technology is a labor-saving enhancement that helps technicians service sites with no worries about missing Sentricon stations covered by grass or landscaping. LID technology uses a radio-frequency identification (RFID) sensor in the top cap to give each Sentricon station a unique identity.


The Sentricon® System with Always Active™ technology is a unique offering, patent pending by Dow AgroSciences, that helps Authorized Operators differentiate their offering for a competitive advantage in the marketplace. For more information on the Sentricon System with Always Active technology, contact your Dow AgroSciences account representative or call Dow AgroSciences at 800-352-6776.

Using state-of-the-art technology to monitor for the presence of termites, Halo™ Electronic Termite Detection does not treat termites with baits or liquid chemicals, but it can make customers aware of termite activity. Halo Detection can help grow your business and provide your customers with a value-added service. Termite monitoring can help you increase revenue potential with current customers and expand your customer base.


Here’s how Halo Detection works: Halo monitoring stations are installed around a structure and monitored for activity by matching the probes on the Halo hand-held indicator to the rubber contacts on the Halo™ contact housing. There’s no need to open or disturb the Halo monitoring stations until the Halo hand-held indicator receives an "Inspect Station" signal. If termites are foraging in the area, they’re likely to find the food source inside the Halo monitoring station.


Although Halo monitoring stations do not attract termites, if the termites have disturbed the Halo™ monitoring station, the Halo hand-held indicator will light up red and make an audible signal, alerting you to an Inspect Station alert. Once termite activity is detected, homeowners will likely choose a termite treatment that fits their needs. If your company offers termite treatments, Halo Detection can help you close the sale. Even if you don’t have a termite license, Halo Detection can still benefit your business. Partnering with a pest control operator in a referral arrangement can help you meet business and customer needs.


Halo Detection can be used as either an add-on or stand-alone service, depending on your company’s and customers’ needs. Offering this unique technology differentiates you from the competition, provides new sales opportunities and allows you freedom to control service schedules and price strategy.1 Termite monitoring is fast because there’s no need to open stations to monitor for termite activity, so you can move quickly around the site. This also allows you to work it into existing routes and service more customers. It’s accurate because the electronics signal actual termite presence in the Halo™ monitoring stations.2 Halo Detection also is professional, using high-quality, cutting-edge components that enhance your company’s image. Halo Detection requires minimal training and, in most states, no licensing or regulatory hurdles. It can be easily installed and monitored by any technician, salesperson or other employee.3 To learn more about Halo Detection or to find a distributor, visit www.PMPBusinessBuilder.com.


1Please read Halo Detection Installation and Monitoring Guidelines for recommended station spacing and monitoring intervals.

2Halo Detection allows quick site monitoring, indicating the presence of termites in Halo monitoring stations following a positive signal with 98 percent accuracy.

3Although Halo Detection does not contain a regulated pesticide, always follow state or local regulations pertaining to termite monitoring.

Shockwave™ Fogging

Concentrate

Stop The Toughest Insects

Dead In Their Tracks

Shockwave™ Fogging Concentrate delivers the highest level of immediate insect control in the toughest situations — due to the stopping power of its five active ingredients.


Shockwave, as its name implies, delivers a devastating combination of two killing agents, two synergists, and an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). The synergists disrupt the insects ability to detoxify insecticides and the dual killing agents overwhelm the insects nervous system – resulting in the highest level of immediate control. The IGR component interferes with later emerging insects’ growth and development. The overwhelming force of the multiple modes of action may also reduce the likelihood of developing resistant populations.


Shockwave is the ideal clean-out application for the toughest situations.

Where there are heavy insect populations

When there are hard to kill insects


Shockwave is labeled for use in and around food and non-food areas — including food processing and handling, stored food warehouses, food service facilities, homes, horse barns, poultry houses and many other areas. Shockwave can be used indoors as a ULV and space spray, contact spray or a thermal fog to control more than 75 insects. Shockwave can also be used outdoors around structures.

For more than a decade, hexaflumuron, the active ingredient in Shatter™ termite bait, which is used in the Hex-Pro™ Termite Baiting System, has provided effective, environmentally sensible control of termites. It’s considered environmentally sensible because it uses a minimal amount of Shatter termite bait to treat the termite colony only where termite activity is discovered or expected.


Here’s how the Hex-Pro System works: First, a professional inspection of the home for signs of termites is completed. Then, Hex-Pro termite stations are placed in the soil in prime termite-foraging areas around the property. Hex-Pro termite stations are then monitored regularly for signs of termite activity. When termites are found in the Hex-Pro™ termite stations, they are transferred to a bait cartridge that replaces the wood monitors. Termites feed on the bait cartridge, which contains Shatter termite bait, and tunnel back to their colony, sending their nestmates back to feed on the bait. Generally, after several weeks, the termite colony declines and eventually is destroyed. After the termites have been controlled, used bait cartridges are replaced with wood monitors. The pest control operator continues to check for signs of new termite activity as long as the service agreement continues. The Hex-Pro System provides peace of mind for the homeowner.


The active ingredient in Shatter termite bait received registration from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Reduced Risk Pesticide Initiative, which is based on its low impact on human health; low toxicity to birds, fish and plants; and low potential for groundwater contamination compared with other commercially available alternatives.


The Hex-Pro System is a product from Dow

AgroSciences — a recognized leader in termite solutions and the first company to develop a monitor/bait system nearly 15 years ago. With the visible Hex-Pro termite stations and ongoing monitoring by a pest management professional, homeowners are reassured their homes are protected from subterranean termites.
