Emit EM-2612 Termite Foam Killer 450ml (Water-Based)

This product is a ready-to-use water-based aerosol foam formulation. When sprayed, the formulation expands and generates a wet foam. This product can be used to control insects where they are found or suspected: in nests, galleries, harbourages, and voids. Suitable for use in antique furniture, parquet floorings, pianos, structural and non-structural elements (Roof beams, purlins & rafters) that are subjected to attack by, or provide harbourage to insects.

• TARGETS: Termites (including Subterranean, Drywood & Dampwood) Wood Destroying Insects (Powder Post Beetles, Old House Borer) & Ants.
• CONTENT: 450ml
• FOR USE: Furnitures, antiques, pianos, parquet flooring, damaged wood, harborages between structural elements or within construction voids.
• Ideal for:
  • Controlling Drywood Termite infestation.
  • Kill subterranean, drywood and dampwood termites on contact.
  • Piano treatment

How it works:

• Firstly, it affects the nervous system of termites resulting in sluggish and disoriented behaviour. Termites could not carry on normal functions such as feeding and movement, they die in about five to eight days upon contact with the active ingredient.
• Secondly, through grooming (termites cleanse themselves by rubbing their bodies against each other to prevent fungi-attack), the active ingredient is transferred to others, eventually reaching their queen and destroying the colony.
• ** Note: Do not expect to see dead termites immediately after application. The formulation is designed to get the Active Ingredient back to the heart of the problem and infect as many termites as it can. Termites will avoid oil-based insecticide but not water-based insecticide.

Directions for Usage:

1. Shake Well Before Use.
2. Remove the safety tab. Point away from face. Use this product as a spot, cracks & crevices treatment and apply sufficient foam to treat the known or suspected insect harborages.
3. Drilling multiple 3mm diameter holes may be required to access the known or suspected gallery, harborage, or void for proper treatment. Avoid drilling into water pipes.
4. Insert the injector straw into the hole and Slowly Press Trigger to dispense foam. Hold the tip firmly in place against injection point to allow foam to expand into the galleries, cracks & crevices, and nests.
   1. For large entrances, tight galleries, you may need to use a rag to block off the excess space so that the foam will fully expand into and reach the insects inside. For optimum results, the foam should exit through other holes along the galleries indicating thorough application.
5. *Note: Please cover all fish tanks and bee hives. All Pyrethroid based chemicals are toxic to fish (aquatic life) and bees. Do not contaminate ponds, waterways and ditches.
