Tangong Villa, located in Shanghai, is an old residential area covering more than 47,384.6 square meters. Constructed between 2004 and 2005, this upscale villa complex features low-rise residences and row villas, with paved concrete surfaces providing natural barriers that reduce the risk of termite propagation. Due to these conditions, no significant termite issues were reported in the years following its construction.

However, in June 2024, a homeowner in Villa No. 23 reported termite swarms within their property. Upon inspection, the termites were identified as Coptotermes formosanus (Formosan subterranean termite). The house had been vacant for some time, which allowed the termite colony to grow undisturbed, resulting in extensive activity. Key findings included visible mud tubes and wood damage in specific locations.

Termites cause extensive damage to buildings each year, often requiring costly repairs. However, finding evidence of termites is not an immediate cause for alarm. It typically takes several years of termite feeding for a building to become structurally weakened. In this article, we will share with you various professional termite treatment methods.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the Pestman in-ground bait station in controlling Coptotermes formosanus. The results showed that the monitoring wood pieces of the Pestman in-ground bait station had good termite-attracting ability when the average daily temperature was above 19 °C. The underground plastic bait stations were designed to ensure continuous feeding by the termites. Hexaflumuron, the insecticide in the bait stations, exhibited strong killing activity against C. formosanus. The colony in the artificial fir and camphor mixed forest at Taolin Hotel in Changde City was successfully eliminated with a total consumption of 150 g of hexaflumuron.

This study, conducted by Pestman's technical staff, examines the effectiveness of a 10% hexaflumuron bait for eliminating colonies of Coptotermes formosanus (Formosan subterranean termites). Field trials were designed to determine the optimal dosage and treatment duration to eradicate termite colonies infesting trees. Results showed that the bait achieved complete colony elimination within 28–42 days with dosages ranging from 100 to 200 grams per colony. The findings highlight the potential of this bait to serve as an efficient method for termite control in shorter periods compared to traditional baits.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Pestman In-ground Termite Bait station in controlling subterranean termites (Reticulitermes). The experiment was conducted across different seasons by installing bait stations at sites with termite activity, followed by regular maintenance and monitoring of bait consumption and termite mortality. Among 229 valid cases, 207 stations successfully attracted termites, while 19 stations showed signs of recurring termite activity after initial colony elimination. The findings suggest that Pestman In-ground Termite Bait station effectively controls termite infestations, though its long-term efficacy and thoroughness need further observation.

Termites that attack living trees are called Formosan subterranean termites. They enter the tree at its base and eat their way through the inside from the ground up. If you've recently spotted signs of termite activity around one of your trees, don't panic! In most cases, you can save the tree and get rid of the termites within a few days. In this article, we'll walk you through a variety of options—both natural and chemical—for treating a tree infestation.

Pestman's technical team conducted a test to observe the effectiveness of using a bait containing 10% hexaflumuron to attract and kill termites. Pestman® hexaflumuron termite bait mixed with attractant and pesticide. Lured by the bait, termites feed on the Pestman termite bait and take it back to the colony. Then they will feed the bait to other termites. Eventually the entire colony termites will be eliminated.

Termites, the tiny creatures that can bring down an entire house. They might not be as glamorous as big scary pests like cockroaches or rats, but when it comes to property damage, they are the silent destroyers. One moment, you think your wooden beams are perfectly solid; the next, you find out termites have turned them into a hollow mess, leaving nothing but a pile of dust and regret. If you've ever had a close call with termites—or worse, dealt with a full infestation—you know the sheer panic that comes with realizing these little guys are feasting on your home.

But don't worry—Pestman’s technical staff has the solution, it’s Pestman Hexaflumuron Bait.
