Protecting your biggest investment

You’ve worked hard all your life building a dream home for your family. You’ve spent long hours at work taking care of your business and making clients happy. And then, the silent enemies attack. Wooden floors in your start to sag, embarrassing mud tubes line your home office walls, and your guest discovers a pile of fecal pellets on the windowsill.

Subterranean termites can consume your investments – your home and property – from the ground up, turning many backbreaking years of hard work into sawdust. Fact is, termites are more dangerous than burglars and much more likely to occur than fire.

Ela Dillague of Sentricon states, "Our country is home to Philippine Milk termites or "white ants," the most tolerant to chemical treatment and very voracious. They are not afraid of heights! Termites become high-rise tenants, make meals out of prized art pieces, and can devour even your pile of money bills. And, perhaps like their home/property owner victims, they are workaholics, foraging 24 hours a day.

Sentricon Termite Colony Elimination System, a technology developed by US-based leader Dow Agro Sciences, stops the destruction by taking advantage of natural termite behavior and getting termites where they live. The system is perfect for protecting homes and properties because it is effective, has no limitations on structure size (ideal for warehouses, shopping centers and hotels), non-disruptive (Sentricon technicians do not have to drill holes through floors, keeping the landscape pretty much undisturbed), odorless and non-intrusive (it does not upset daily operations, leaving property owners and tenants in peace).

Best of all, the technology is safe (Sentricon monitoring devices have secure child-resistant caps) and environment-friendly. Hexaflumuron, the active ingredient in Sentricon, is specific to termites, which means that non-target organisms will not be affected. Hexaflumuron, the bait material in Sentricon that stops the molting process and causes termites to die, is the first pest control product in the US to receive "fast track" registration from the Environmental Protection Agency in the new "Reduced Pesticide Risk" category. Sentricon was also awarded the US Presidential Green Chemistry Award by the Clinton Administration for its commitment to keep the environment safe.

Sentricon System is not exactly "bargain basement-period" but its clients are not complaining. A golf and country club general manager discloses how after doing some cost analysis, his company discovered that the amount they have been paying an anti-anay company that uses conventional chemical treatments for years added up to so much more than Sentricon. Add to that the cost of repairing major structures damaged by termites that were not effectively exterminated by "spray and pray" techniques.

Even pest control industry experts are saying they have not seen anything like this for decades. Those who admitted being initially, skeptical became convinced after seeing first hand how Sentricon actually delivers its promise of total termite colony elimination.

Dillague explains why Sentricon is excellent for your home and property: "Sentricon makes good business sense because it is an investment that will take care of your bigger one." Call 772-5006-07 or visit the website at www.sentricon.com.
