Of Best Termiticides and More!

Various termite chemicals are available in the market such as Termidor and Premise to name a few. Each one guarantees immediate and complete barrier protection. Debates are always underway - as much about the best form of termite treatment as well as the best termiticide for getting rid of an infestation.

Well, in my professional opinion, it is not like one brand of liquid chemical is better than the other. What matters is how the termiticide is used and if the treatment is done properly or not! For instance:

•    The termiticide should be used in the appropriate quantity as specified on the label. Use too little, and it will prove to be ineffective.

•    Even if the termiticide is diluted with excessive water, it will fail to have the desired effect on the pests.

•    Proper and complete coverage is also crucial. The termiticide should be injected all the way into the basement and all around the perimeter of the house to block all possible entry routes.

This is why it is always better to hire a professional and reliable pest control Matthews, North Carolina service provider to do a proper and thorough job. Tactical Termite and Pest Solutions is staffed by skilled and experienced technicians who can properly identify the type of pest infestation and follow the right treatment procedures to ensure proper termiticide application. They deliver effective, reliable and long-term results always!

How Termite Pre-treatment Varies from Regular Termite Treatment




Termite control brings up various terms such as pre-treatment and treatment. This can get quite confusing for a layperson that is looking to secure his or her home against these silent destroyers.

Pretreatment is a preventive procedure that is carried out before the construction of the house has even begun. A professional pest control Ballentyne, Charlotte, North Carolina firm will apply insecticides in the soil beneath the structure and in the foundation itself to make the house completely termite-proof. The treatment will continue during specific points of the construction, like before and after the cement floor is poured, etc.

On the other hand, regular termite treatment is more like a kneejerk reaction after a termite infestation has reared its ugly head. Here, the termiticides or baits are drilled into or around the structure to either repel or kill the termites and put an end to the invasion. At times, even localized spot application can be used to eliminate termites.

Many homeowners even get termite treatments to protect their house and its belongings from the threat of termites. Post-treatment methods also work to safeguard the house from future termite attacks.

The method of treatment, chemical used and amount applied remains largely the same for pre- and post termite control. It’s only the timing that varies!
