KNOCKOUT – Termite Technology is Getting Better
September 10, 2010
Nobody has to tell me that Bed Bugs aren’t the only pest in the New York area. Here at Knockout Pest Control we get thousands of calls a month regarding a host of insect, rodent, bird, and wild animal problems; and we handle them all. And when we do, we always follow a practice called Integrated Pest Management, which is a multistage approach to pest control. And we always do our best to be as GREEN as possible and stay on the cutting edge of the latest technology. I guess this is a good time to tell EVERYBODY about the NEWEST thing coming in 2011! Dow AgroSciences is introducing a NEW GENERATION of the Sentricon Termite Colony Elimination System – it’s called ALWAYS ACTIVE. The monitoring will be the same, but require fewer checks. The active ingredient is still the same and effective as ever. But the formulation and delivery system have been improved. It stays in the ground and will keep doing it job for more than a year. Wood monitors/attractants will no longer be used, but upon installation the active ingredient will be immediately available in every station so that the very first termites to feed at the station will begin the “process of colony elimination”, thus speeding up the time for total colony elimination. For those of you who do not know, the Sentricon System can be used in conjunction with traditional methods of Termite elimination, (liquid termiticides), although not needed or recommended, but in cases where traditional treatment may be difficult because of physical barriers or inaccessible areas. The Sentricon System not only baits & kills Termites, but Termites bring the active ingredient back to the colony to eat, thereby killing the entire colony, including the queen. PLUS the professional placement around a structure, like you house or commercial building will attract and kill the Termites BEFORE they get to the wood support structures of your home or business. At Knockout, we’re very excited about this new technology. Hey, we’ve been part of this revolutionary Sentricon technology with Dow ArgroSciences since 1995. They’ve selected to partner with only 500 pest control companies in the nation, and there are tens of thousands of pest control companies out there. We are proud to be recognized as one of a select few that meet Dow’s highest standards of quality and professionalism. We plan to begin using the New Technology very soon and will begin with NEW SENTRICON CUSTOMERS. We will be asking our current Sentricon users if they want to switch to the new ALWAYS ACTIVE System and discuss with them the upgrade and one time conversion fee. AND here’s a ANOTHER NEW FEATURE from Knockout Pest Control… For a Limited Time… if you refer someone to use Knockout Pest Control’s Dow ArgroSciences NEW ALWAYS ACTIVE Sentricon Technology… and they purchase this improved Sentricon System from Knockout… then we’ll, thank you with a $50.00 discount coupon for showing your confidence in Knockout Pest Control. And what would an offer be without restrictions, (ask our ad people), the referral is for NEW Sentricon customers only and only in Knockout Pest Contro’ls service area. This offer is for a limited time and can be withdrawn at any time, without notice. (Gee, I hate these ad guys… nothing is ever easy with them).
