Q&A: What Sentricon®, the Standalone Termite Solution, Means for You

February 5, 2020 by CORTEVA AGRISCIENCE Insights

Year after year, the Sentricon® system is the standalone termite solution Certified Sentricon Specialists® (CSS) rely on to ensure total colony elimination and customer satisfaction. For CSSs who use a variety of treatment solutions, we answered some of the questions you might have about the benefits of using Sentricon as the only termite solution.

What is a “standalone” termite solution?
For colony elimination, the Sentricon® system is the only product you and your customers need for any termite situation. The Sentricon system with Always Active™ technology is for both active infestations and preventative situations, making it a standalone termite solution that guarantees 24/7/365 protection of structures. Research continues to prove that the Sentricon system eliminates termite colonies, with 70+ scientific studies reinforcing the efficacy of the Sentricon system. These studies are true of both in-ground and above-ground Recruit AG FlexPack™ stations, which provide additional solutions for aerial colonies and other hard-to-reach infestations. Regardless of where termites are active, the Sentricon system has a complete solution for the infestation, and you have an effective solution for your customers.

What are the business benefits of using Sentricon as a standalone solution?
A proven standalone termite solution is better for business. The Sentricon® system enhances your profit potential through recurring revenue, higher margins and an industry-leading 92% customer retention rate. A standalone solution may also reduce the need for specialized termite service crews, saving pest management professionals (PMPs) on costs by allowing technicians to completely service clients using only the Sentricon system. Lastly, the Sentricon system can be bundled and cross-sold with general pest services, which creates higher long-term value for your business.

Why is the Sentricon® system the ideal solution for my customers?
According to customers, no name in the termite elimination business carries as much weight as the Sentricon® system. Consumer research shows that the Sentricon system is the most ideal termite solution and the No. 1 brand in termite protection. ,2 Additionally, homeowners value the Sentricon system because it functions similar to insurance against future termite attacks — hence why 5 million structures are already protected by the Sentricon system, and why 9 in 10 homeowners choose to continue protecting their homes with Sentricon. Together, these benefits make the Sentricon system the most effective and trusted standalone solution available to customers, which translates to valuable profit potential for your business.

Why is a standalone solution better than other termite barrier treatments?
Baiting with the Sentricon® system makes the most sense. Studies show that compared with other solutions, revenue growth is projected to continue for termite baits, and the Sentricon system is the leader in that category. The Sentricon system also reduces liability risks and eliminates labor costs necessary for alternative termite solutions. In addition, the label for Always Active™ technology only requires once-per-year servicing, creating further labor-saving options for you and your team.

Recruit AG FlexPack™ bait stations are a further Sentricon standalone benefit. With Recruit AG FlexPack, you’re able to treat above-ground colonies in high and hard to reach spaces both outdoors and indoors. This allows you to spot-treat infestations where they occur, beginning the colony elimination process immediately.

What does a standalone termite solution mean for me?
Ultimately, the Sentricon® system is the strongest termite elimination solution because it provides industry-leading business and customer benefits in a single standalone product. No other alternative solutions provide the same powerful combination of proven protection, colony elimination and business potential in one package.
