Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The Sentricon™ System

No. Termites find Sentricon™ stations through their relentless search and continuous foraging for additional food sources. Once they discover the stations, inside they’ll find the patented and highly desirable lethal food source the termite workers readily feed on and take back to the colony to share with their nestmates. Termites die off but are not able to identify the cause. This leads ultimately to the death of the colony and the queen.

The Sentricon™ system starts protecting a home as soon as it is installed. The Sentricon system begins working once termites feed on the bait found within the station. How quickly termites find an in-ground Sentricon station depends on the termite pressure in your area — but if termites are present, they will find the stations. Unlike liquid termiticide treatments, Sentricon eliminates the entire colony. Colony elimination is the most effective way to protect your property. If active termite feeding is visible, your Certified Sentricon Specialist™ can install specialized above-ground stations to initiate immediate feeding. The faster worker termites get to the bait used by the Sentricon system, the faster their colony will be eliminated.

Label directions for Always Active™ technology allow your Certified Sentricon Specialist™ to perform service once per year, though some will come more often. This flexibility allows a service schedule that meets the needs of your property and provides you with maximum convenience. You do not even need to be home when the stations are serviced.

No. The Sentricon™ system is a stand-alone technology that is fully effective.

Liquid treatments are antiquated efforts to keep termites away and can be very disruptive to your property and lifestyle. But the Sentricon™ system is an entire system based on the science of natural termite behavior. The award-winning, patented technology in Sentricon uses the termites themselves to destroy their entire colony and kill the queen.

Yes. The active ingredient in the Sentricon™ system is not systemic and will not be taken up by the plants, and the potential for leaching is extremely low.

Service with the Sentricon™ System

There is a basic cost to have the Sentricon™ system installed and then an ongoing service fee to maintain the protection. The cost may vary depending upon the service program you and your Certified Sentricon Specialist™ agree to.

To ensure your home continues to be maintained by the No. 1 brand in termite protection, you must reactivate the service agreement. It is best to find the pest management company that had previously serviced your home as they will know the property’s history.

No. The Sentricon™ system is registered for professional use only according to governmental regulations and may only be sold and serviced by a Certified Sentricon Specialist™ according to manufacturer requirements. Termites are serious pests and the extreme damage they can do to a home requires specialized training and materials. If you have a concern or question, the best thing you can do is to call your Certified Sentricon Specialist and ask him or her to come out and assess the situation.

Subterranean Termites

A queen termite can produce a million or more offspring in her lifetime. Termite colonies usually range from the tens of thousands of individuals to multiple millions. And it is not uncommon for multiple colonies to attack a home at the same time or to have multiple colonies on your property.

Swarming is a natural process that usually occurs in warm weather after a rain shower, as termite reproductives seek to start new colonies. If you see termites swarming, or merely find a collection of their discarded wings, call a Certified Sentricon Specialist™. It could be ants. It could be termites. It’s important to get an expert inspection.

Worker termites are constantly foraging for new food sources, even if there is an ample supply present. In fact, termites can forage distances greater than 100 yards as they search for new food sources. The Sentricon™ system is designed so the bait stations intercept the random foraging patterns of the workers.
