Termidor HP High Precision termiticide receives registration in California

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC, September 9, 2016 -- Termidor^® HP High Precision termiticide from BASF has been approved for use in California. Termidor HP termiticide is the latest formulation in the Termidor family of products, the best-selling liquid termiticide in the U.S., and is designed to work exclusively with the Termidor HP High Precision Injection System.

This groundbreaking injection system provides effective control of termites with a completely different application method that places the termiticide in precise, measured doses around a structure. The system uses less water, minimizes landscape disruption, reduces labor-intensive trenching and rodding, and creates a more uniform treatment zone as compared to conventional liquid termiticides.  

To ensure accuracy and consistency, the Termidor HP High Precision Injection System is equipped with an advanced digital onboard computer and inline mixing system. A computer-generated report provides a detailed record of the treatment for greater homeowner confidence.

“Trusted by pest management professionals for more than 15 years, Termidor delivers the most effective termite control technology and application methods available,” said Antonia Chan, Product Manager for BASF. “The Termidor HP injection system will change the way California pest management professionals work, saving time and dramatically reducing labor.”
