PROTHOR 200 SC Termiticide

The protector providing a professional standard for protecting buildings against termites.

NOW WITH FIVE YEARS GUARANTEED PROTECTION

Key Features

• Innovative Formulation; Ensystex have taken the formulation of imidacloprid as a termiticide to the next level. With a micro-fine suspension concentrate ensuring particle sizes of less than 5 microns for better soil penetration and viral transfer. PROTHOR is also blended to protect it better from degradation in your vehicles.
• PROTHOR is undetectable; Some soil treatment termite control products do not kill termites, instead they repel them. These products are effective when applied in a perfect and continuous gap-free termite barrier, but if there are any gaps in the barrier through which termites can enter, its ‘hello termites’. 
• Minimal impact on the environment and you;  Studies have shown that during applications of PROTHOR, airborne residues of PROTHOR in the structure are minimal. This means it is safe to remain at home while PROTHOR is being applied under and around your home. This is unlike some other termiticides which require you to vacate your home while they are being applied.
• PROTHOR is easy on the nose; In fact PROTHOR is almost odourless since it is a water-based product.
• Non-sensitising; This means no unpleasant sensations as often caused by other termiticides.
• Safe to plants and rapidly metabolised; Indeed the active in PROTHOR is widely used on agricultural food crops, in orchards, nurseries and in products applied directly to pets.
• Approved for post-construction and pre-construction treatments; For pre-construction PROTHOR should be applied through a reticulation system.
• Employs Ensystex’s unique Microbial Protection Blend™; To ensure the product remains fresh out in the field and in the back of your truck.

Performance

When applied to soil at recommended rates, PROTHOR is undetectable by termites as they tunnel through it. Since termites can’t detect PROTHOR treated soil, they can’t avoid it and are killed by their contact with it. We call this the PROTHOR Termite Defence Zone™.

When termites unknowingly tunnel through PROTHOR treated soil, they accumulate PROTHOR on the outside of their bodies. PROTHOR does not immediately kill termites exposed to it. The delayed toxicity of PROTHOR allows contaminated termites to interact with non-exposed termite nestmates. This interaction can take place over three days. This ensures greater transfer and kills more termites than similar products. Non-affected termites that clean and groom other termites recently exposed to PROTHOR are themselves secondarily exposed and killed. This transmission of PROTHOR from termite to termite which cannot be detected or avoided by termites is referred to as the PROTHOR Viral Effect™.

The active ingredient in PROTHOR has some very special and unique soil binding properties. Chemists call these properties Hysteretic Binding. This unique chemistry means that PROTHOR is relatively slow to bind to soil particles, but once it does bind, it grips very tightly to ensure the PROTHOR Termite Defence Zone remains in place for a long time to keep on killing termites. This hysteretic binding effect is important because it ensures that the PROTHOR Defence Shield™ created around your clients home is as complete and continuous as possible.
