How It Works: Mode of Action
Termex is a non-repellent contact and systemic insecticide. Its structural use relies on termites encountering the treated zone.
- Treated zone: Label-directed application places the diluted product at the building treatment site.
- Nerve action: Imidacloprid acts on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors involved in insect nerve signalling.
- Termite control: Exposed susceptible termites stop feeding and die.

How to Apply: Best Practices
- Plan the work: Identify the termite activity and whether the building needs pre-construction or post-construction treatment.
- Measure accurately: Dilute 2.1 ml product in 1 L water. Do not use the concentrate undiluted.
- Use suitable equipment: The treatment equipment is a hand knapsack sprayer or foot sprayer.
- Follow the site programme: Keep treatment placement, solution volume and access restrictions matched to the supplied label.
