Termite Baiting Systems

Exterra

Worlds Number One Termite Protection. Your Exterra termite interception and baiting system is there to protect you from the invasion of termites, continually. Exterra stations are placed around your property to intercept termites. Once intercepted, Requiem™ Termite Bait is added to the large Exterra station. The termites feed on the Requiem and the colony is eliminated easily and quickly, right at the point of termite attack.

The elite Exterra termite interception and baiting system, with its unique termite interception zone encircling your home is the only baiting system that creates a complete termite interception zone around your home. This complete and continuous zone is created by using our patented Focus Termite Attractant™ in each Station so termites are intercepted before they reach your home.

Protect you premium asset and join the Exterra family. The Exterra termite interception and baiting system has protected more than 100,000 homes and businesses in Australia alone, with significantly more across the world - with the number growing daily. The premium quality and proven performance of Exterra makes it the easy and right choice for protecting your most important asset - your home. There is security knowing that many national and international diverse iconic treasures have chosen and rely on Exterra to ensure their ongoing termite protection.

Environmentally Friendly Protection

The safe environmentally friendly way to eliminate termites. It's highly likely that you have a home security system to protect your place from invaders. Well that's how the Exterra termite interception and baiting system can be described. It is there to protect you from the invasion of termites, continually. Other systems rely on the use of toxic liquid chemicals which are sprayed around your home. This can be harmful to the environment and other animals. Exterra is different. A truly safe, environmentally friendly way to eliminate termites, Exterra uses a termites' natural instincts against them, eliminating the attacking termite and their whole colony. Even after the termite colony is eliminated, Exterra Stations guard your home using the natural power of CO2, monitoring for future invasions without the ongoing need to reapply chemicals. By using Exterra, you are establishing a long term termite solution that's easy on both you and the environment.

Exterra and Australian Wildlife Conservancy - Partners for Life. When you install the environmentally friendly Exterra termite interception and baiting system, you will be supporting Australian Wildlife Conservancy and securing vital habitat for Australia's threatened wildlife. More than $500,000 has been donated by Exterra for wildlife conservancy.

A gourmet delight that uses no chemicals!

Caviar and lobster may be the desired treat for a gourmet. For a termite the ultimate treat is Requiem™ Termite Bait. Requiem is the most palatable termite bait in the world, it is truly irresistible to termites. Housed within the Exterra station, it is this greatly superior palatability that makes the Exterra termite interception and baiting system the number one system in the world, all without using a unfriendly chemicals.

Sure protection that is less toxic than salt

This innovative, eco-friendly Requiem termite bait system uses a termite bait containing less than ¼ of a gram of an active ingredient – an ingredient which itself is less toxic than table salt! Rather than problematic chemicals sprayed in your garden or inefficient chemical trenches dug around your home, Exterra uses Requiem Termite Bait in a closed and locked station, ensuring it is kept securely away from your family, household pets and other animals. Lured by natural eucalypt timber interceptors – a termites’ preferred food source - the termites take the bait back to their nest, and the colony is eliminated. Exterra focuses on total termite colony elimination without chemicals, guaranteeing the most effective results without harming the environment, meaning Exterra is safe for you, your family, pets and nature.

Never have another termite again

Treat termites at their source and finish them off. For good. Anything Less than 100% total colony elimination isn't 'Gone for Good'. Even the most widely advertised alternatives to Exterra, liquid applied termite control chemicals, come up short when it comes to the extent of their effect on a termite colony. Sure, they can kill the termites that are in your home now, and a lot of the termites in the ground under it, but they haven't been demonstrated to eliminate entire termite colonies in the ground where they originate. The creation of the Exterra termite interception zone ensures that protection is ongoing, where as chemical deposits age in the soil and breakdown. This means chemicals eventually reach a point where they no longer affect the termites, and once more the termites return to attack your home.

There is not one published, peer reviewed scientific paper demonstrating colony elimination of our economically important local termite species with any liquid applied termite control product on the market today. In fact the performance claims on the registered product labels for these liquid chemicals (claims which have to be supported by trial data for review and approval by leading, independent scientists) make no claim whatsoever regarding colony elimination!

Will the Exterra Stations attract Termites to my home?

Rest easy, the answer is no. The Exterra stations are there to protect your home and will only intercept those termites that have entered into and are actually foraging in your garden. If the stations weren't there, then these termites would eventually seek out and attack your home. With Exterra, stations with Focus Termite Attractant™ are discretely placed around your home. The Focus evolves the gaseous attractant that termites adore over a 2 m radius. Thus, when the Exterra Stations are placed around your home, they link together to form the Exterra Termite Interception Zone™, protecting your home. Exterra then does its job naturally by directing termites to the stations and not to your home, luring them to their "Last Supper".

If you choose another baiting system, the termites are likely to pass between the small stations and again find their way into your home. This is because the termite interception zone that stops termites passing between our stations is unique to Exterra and protected by international patents.

	1. Exterra starts in the ground... The first step of using Exterra is to install In-ground Stations around your property where termites are likely to be foraging for food. The Stations contain eucalypt timber interceptors that numerous, independent, studies have shown are the termites preferred food source.
	2. ...or under the concrete... If your property is surrounded by concrete, then the special Exterra In-concrete Station is used. This has a stainless steel cap that seals flush with the pathway.
	3. ...and inside your home for quick results. Exterra Above-ground Stations are the preferred approach when termites are already in your home. Requiem Termite Bait is placed in the safe and sealed Station when it is installed. Above-ground Stations speed up the process of colony elimination. After the termite colony is eliminated, the Above-ground Stations are removed.
	4. When the termites are intercepted... Termites are easily detected in the Exterra Stations. The unique (patented) design of the Exterra Station allows for termites to be seen without disturbing them. This is very important. And the termites are not disturbed when the REQUIEM Termite Bait is added either.
	5. ...and now the Requiem Termite Bait goes to work. Requiem Termite Bait is added without disturbing the termites. This is vital to achieve quick and consistent results. Requiem is highly palatable to termites and they readily consume it in preference to timber. In fact, local studies show that once termites start feeding on Requiem they stop feeding on the timbers in your home! Requiem is also non-toxic to you and your pets.
	6. Termites can't resist Requiem, leading to the colony's quick demise. The termites feed on the Requiem and take it back to the colony where it is fed slowly throughout the entire colony. Since the termites die gradually, they do not associate the colony's demise with the consumption of Requiem. This ensures that the entire colony is eliminated.
	7. The colony is eliminated. Any remaining Requiem is removed. Fresh timber interceptors are placed in the In-ground Stations, and the Above-ground Stations are removed. To protect you against the constant threat from new termite colonies or other established colonies, the Exterra System works on an ongoing process of 'Peace of Mind' monitoring, baiting and eliminating.
