GT Plus Termite Toxicant Bait Stations
Instructions
- Typically, SMARTDISC™ locators and monitoring stations are placed
around your home, about every 10 feet. They are inspected on a regular
schedule for the presence of termites. Once termites are found in
a monitoring station, it is replaced with a FirstLine® GT Plus termite
bait station. Each station contains the active ingredient sulfluramid,
which can kill at least 80,000 termites. Unlike other termite baiting
systems, sulfluramid can kill all types of subterranean termites,
including reproductives. The active ingredient disrupts the production
of energy, causing termites to die. In some cases where termites
are found in the soil, a FirstLine® GT Plus termite bait station
(in-ground) may be used right away.
Difference between the Hex Pro Termite Bait System and Firstline Termite Bait System
- HexPro's Shatter termite bait -Hexaflumuronn(chitin inhibitor-same as Recruit's Sentricon System) will also fit in Sentricon's System.
- Shatter's loose pelleted bait matrix provides for easy termite tunneling.
- Hexaflumuron (Shatter) is slower acting than Sulfluramid(Firstline and Terminate) , allowing time for distribution of termite bait through the entire colony.
This results in complete colony elimination.
Stomach poisons such as Sulfluramid(Firstline and Terminate) kill quickly often resulting in incomplete elimination of the termite colony.
- The Firstline system is a stomach poison and is not labeled
for pre treats and the Hex Pro is similar to the Sentricon system which
is an IGR , and is labeled for pretreats (except for the state of Florida).
