TECHNOLOGIST PEST CONTROL TERMITE CONTROL PROGRAMS
There are various termite treatment options available to homeowners, but how do you determine which is best for your home? This decision should be made thoughtfully, after conducting thorough research and consulting with your trusted termite expert at Technologist Pest Control.
Since each home is unique, termite treatment should be customized to meet your specific needs. By collaborating with your termite specialist at Technologist Pest Control, you can create an effective and tailored termite treatment plan for your property. Below are some of the most common termite treatment options: Conventional Treatment This treatment has been in use for over 50 years and aims to address all potential entry points for subterranean termites. It is considered one of the most comprehensive liquid treatments available. Conventional treatments involve treating the soil on both sides of foundation walls, the voids in cinder block foundation walls, and the soil beneath plumbing penetrations in slabs and bath traps. Drilling is typically required to treat the interior foundation walls, cinder block voids, and plumbing penetration areas. The scope of treatment and the amount of drilling needed will depend on the construction type of your home. |
Xterm™ Termite Baiting System
Termite Baiting System
Termite baits offer a unique approach to termite control. This method involves placing small amounts of toxicant at termite foraging sites, which gradually eliminates termite populations around and within the structure. In some cases, termite baits are used as a standalone treatment, while in others, they are combined with liquid or barrier treatments. Integrating a baiting system with barrier treatments can help reduce the amount of pesticide required. Termite baiting systems are an effective and intelligent way to protect your home. They take advantage of the termites' natural foraging behavior to control the entire colony. The bait, which contains insecticide, is placed at feeding sites, where termites consume it and carry it back to the nest. They share it with the queen and other colony members. The delayed action of the bait ensures it spreads throughout the colony before the termites realize anything is wrong, ultimately leading to the colony's demise. |

Termite baiting systems are the smart way to protect your home from termites. They utilise the termites’ own foraging behaviour to gain complete colony control. Highly attractive bait containing insecticide is placed at termite feeding sites. Termites feed on the bait and take it back to the nest and pass it on to the queen and nest mates. Its delayed action means it gets spread around the colony before the termites realise anything is wrong and death of the colony is assured. More...
Termidor® America’s #1 Termite Defense Product

Termidor® termiticide/insecticide is a professional termite defense product effective on native subterranean termites, Formosan termites, and drywood termites. It utilizes an advanced nonrepellent, or “undetectable,” liquid technology that termites cannot see, smell, taste, or avoid. Instead, they contact, ingest, and share Termidor, completely unaware that doing so will inevitably kill them.
General Pest Control
Crawling and Flying Insect Control
Our technician will begin by thoroughly inspecting your home for signs of crawling and flying insects, such as cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes, bedbugs, ticks, fleas, rats, and mice. During this inspection, we will also address any concerns you may have regarding pests on your property. The service involves treating all cracks and crevices with a flushing agent designed to eliminate pests found during the inspection. Key areas such as windows, skirting boards, tile cracks, and kitchen cupboards will be thoroughly treated. In addition, a gel bait will be applied to areas where pests are likely hiding. The bait attracts the pests, which feed on it and are rendered unable to reproduce, eventually leading to their demise. If necessary, a powder treatment will also be applied in your roof void. Typically, a follow-up visit will be scheduled 10 to 14 days after the initial treatment. The chemical treatment consists of a combination of herbal and chemical insecticides, which are carefully sprayed into every crack and crevice to ensure all hidden pests are eradicated. |

Cockroach Control
Cockroach populations thrive in environments where food, water, and shelter are abundant. Therefore, effective cockroach control begins with reducing or eliminating these resources from your home. While complete eradication may be difficult, it is possible to achieve a high level of control, ensuring that very few cockroaches are visible.
Cockroaches have remained largely unchanged for over 400 million years. As scavengers of decaying plant matter, they primarily prefer carbohydrates, though they will eat nearly anything when food is scarce.
Before beginning treatment, our technician will conduct a thorough inspection of your home to check for signs of cockroach activity and discuss any concerns you may have. We will treat all cracks and crevices with a flushing agent designed to kill any roaches found during the service. Common areas treated include windows, skirting boards, tile cracks, and kitchen cupboards. In addition, a cockroach paste will be applied to attract and eliminate hiding roaches. The paste renders them unable to reproduce and eventually kills them. If necessary, powder treatment will be applied to your roof void. A follow-up visit is usually scheduled 10 to 14 days later.
Gel Treatment
Gel treatment is an advanced and highly effective method for controlling cockroaches. This non-smelly, non-messy treatment has revolutionized pest control, allowing for treatment without having to remove items from the kitchen.
How the Treatment Works: Small amounts of gel are applied in strategic locations using a syringe, mainly in areas where cockroaches are most likely to be found, such as the kitchen and pantry. The gel is also applied in the toilet and throughout the premises.
How Gel Works: The gel contains a product that is highly attractive to cockroaches. Once they consume the gel, it has a cascading effect, as the contaminated cockroaches spread it to others, resulting in a significant reduction of the cockroach population. The gel can also be applied to sensitive areas like electrical control boxes, kitchen appliances, and computers.
Chemical Treatment
Chemical treatment involves spraying a combination of herbal and chemical insecticides into every crack and crevice throughout the premises to ensure all hidden cockroaches are eliminated. All chemicals used are certified and approved for indoor/domestic use.

Rat Control
Unlike cockroach control, which can often be managed by spraying chemical agents around the home, rat control requires a completely different approach. Rats are highly intelligent animals that can detect and avoid potential dangers to stay alive. Effectively managing a rat problem can be challenging without the right strategies in place.
Step 1: Sanitation, Inspection, and Exclusion The first step in rat control is a thorough inspection. By identifying where rats are active, you can determine the best locations to set traps or place bait. Next, exclusion is key to preventing further entry. Sealing potential entry points is crucial in keeping rats out of your home or building. Rats are easier to exclude than mice, but any opening larger than 1/2" should be sealed to block rat entry. For mice, seal openings larger than 1/4". Step 2: Trapping or Baiting Once the inspection and exclusion steps are completed, trapping or baiting can be employed as the next effective strategy for rat control. |
