Ant Transfer Effect™
Termidor® is unique because it even controls ants that never make direct contact with its active ingredient. They need only make contact with other ants that have been exposed to Termidor.
Whenever an ant ingests or touches Termidor, it can become a “carrier,” transferring Termidor to other ants it comes in contact with. These ants in turn can become secondary carriers, behaving normally while they transfer Termidor to other ants they contact—and so on within the colony. Termidor is slow-acting enough to allow individual ants ample time to transfer it to others in the population.
This "Transfer Effect™" means you'll see Termidor affecting ants in one to three days, and most species will be controlled within the first week following the treatment.
A Termidor® termiticide/insecticide application can only be performed by a licensed pest control professional. Users must always read and follow label directions.
