Fipforce Dust Termiticide and Insecticide

Fipforce Dust Termiticide and Insecticide contains 5g/kg of Fipronil which is toxic to insects by contact or ingestion.

Fipforce Dust is applied through a hand duster to help in the control of Termites, Nuisance ants and Cockroaches. It has a mineral based carrier which flows extremely well and is less susceptible to moisture than cellulose-based dusts. Less moisture build-up means less clogging of the application procedure.

Fipforce Dust Termiticide and Insecticide Mode of Action

Fipronil is toxic to insects by contact or ingestion as it blocks GABAA- gated chloride channels in the central nervous system. This prevents the uptake of chloride ions resulting in excess neuronal stimulation and death.

Fipforce Dust Termiticide and Insecticide General Instructions

Treat as many termites as possible – 100 mL minimum (depending on species, this is equivalent to around 15,000 workers). Treat infested timbers where termites are active. Treat leads as a last resort as these can be used for monitoring activity. Treat as many galleries as possible. Aggregation containers such as bait boxes and bait stations can be useful in increasing the number of termites that can be treated. To optimise colony decline dust termites each time significant activity is found.

Cessation of termite activity does not guarantee that a structure is protected from attack by other colonies in the area. Termite dusting is not designed as a standalone treatment and should not be used as such. Therefore a continuous chemical treatment such as Fipforce Aqua Termiticide & Insecticide applied to the soil as per Australian Standard 3660.2 should be applied immediately following successful eradication of termite activity in the structure. It is important that a licensed Pest Control Operator carry out regular inspections at least annually.
