Why Termidor is Our Preferred Choice for New Home Termite Protection

At Detecta Pest, we are committed to using effective termiticides. We use trusted termiticides in our reticulation systems. This is for new constructions. Termidor is a leading product. We frequently recommend it. Termidor is a highly advanced termiticide. It is non-repellent. It is renowned throughout Australia. It has an exceptional ability to eliminate termites. It provides long-lasting protection to new homes.

Here’s why Termidor is ideal for your new home builds:

  • Termites cannot detect Termidor. This ensures they readily move through the treated soil.
  • The “transfer effect” ensures the termiticide spreads. It spreads throughout the termite colony.
  • Termidor binds tightly to the soil. This provides years of dependable protection. It protects the home’s foundations.
  • It is effective against all major termite species. These species are prevalent on the NSW North Coast.
  • Termidor has a long and successful history. This history is in termite control for new constructions.
  • Application within the reticulation system is non-disruptive. This is during construction. It doesn’t disrupt your building schedule.

Why Termite Protection Matters

1 in 3 homes on the NSW North Coast will experience termite damage.
The cost of repair can be $10,000 to $50,000+, and insurance won’t cover it.

If it’s been over 12 months since your last inspection, or if you don’t know whether your home has a termite barrier, don’t wait. Check your meter box for a pest control sticker — no sticker usually means no protection.

Every homeowner in this region should have a termite barrier in place.
