House under attack from
termites.
The first step in the Exterra Management program is a thorough
inspection of your home by a fully accredited and licensed pest manager.
Your Authorised Exterra Pest Manager will determine the nature of the
threat to your property and recommend cultural changes you should make
as well as determining optimal placement of Exterra Stations. |
 |
Exterra Stations are
placed around your property.
Stations are checked regularly. If termites are in your home,
Above-ground Stations are installed. Above-ground Stations allow your
termite problem to be dealt with immediately, right at the point of
termite attack. This can mean a significant decrease in the time to
colony elimination. A hand-held computer and barcode scanner are used to
ensure the quality of your program. |
 |
Termites are intercepted
by Exterra Stations.
Termites are easily detected in the Exterra Stations. The unique
(patented) design of the Exterra Station allows for termites to be seen
without disturbing them. This is very important. And the termites are
not disturbed during bait application either. |
 |
The Exterra Station is
baited with Requiem
Requiem is added without disturbing the termites. This is vital to
achieve quick and consistent results. Requiem is highly palatable to
termites and they readily consume it in preference to timber. In fact
Australian studies show that once termites start feeding on Requiem they
stop feeding on timbers in your home! Requiem is also very low toxicity
to you, your pets and the environment. |
 |
The Termite Colony is
eliminated by the Requiem.
The termites feed on the Requiem and take it back to the colony where it
is fed slowly throughout the entire colony. Since the termites die
gradually , they do not associate the colony's demise with the Requiem.
This ensures that the entire colony is eliminated. |
 |
The colony is
eliminated....
Fresh interceptors are placed in the Stations and 'Peace of Mind'
monitoring continues. Your property always remains susceptible to future
attack from new termite colonies or other established colonies in your
area. To relieve this constant threat the Exterra System works on an
ongoing process of monitoring, baiting and eliminating. This makes its
use ideal as an ongoing early warning system. |
