TERMIREPEL™®
Termites are undisputedly the most destructive of all
structural pests.
The term repellency means to drive back, ward off, or keep
away. If the termiticide is a repellant, the termite will approach the
treatment and avoid the treated area. Termites generally will not tunnel
through or walk on a repellant termiticide.
We have been working with several bioactives which are
completely non toxic
to humans as well as other animals.
Our approach has been to use Environmentally safe products
which do not enter into ground water resources of poison the environment.
Termirepel ™® is designed to not poison the environment. It
contains no products which are pesticides or insecticides.
The Anti termite masterbatch we have produced functions in this way, It does
not kill insects immediately, instead it repels and disrupts their growth
and reproduction. The product incapacitates the insects rather than killing
them directly.
The masterbatch contains 5% Active formulated in LDPE.
The product is structurally similar to insect hormones called "ecdysones"
which control the process of metamorphosis as the insects pass from
larva to pupa to adult.
The product" Termirepel" ™® has three modes of action on insects: it is a
highly effective insect growth regulator (IGR), a feeding deterrent, and an
oviposition deterrent.
The product is completely non toxic.
Please write to us for more details on toxicology
information & environmental information.
We shall be glad to provide technical information & MSDS of
our product.
