Orange oil is an innovative solution to an old problem. As a treatment for drywood termites it has many benefits including:
- No need to move out of the house
- Far less toxic than many products you already have in your home
- Sustainably produced as a by-product from the leftover rinds of orange juice production
The active ingredient in orange oil is D-Limonene, a product that has many uses from food additive to industrial cleaner to specially formulated termiticide. Its works by penetrating the wood and is able to wick through the natural capallaries, soaking the surrounding area to ensure a thorough and effective treatment every time. Orange oil kills termites on contact and eats away the protective wax layer in their outer shell.
Orange oil is an effective Integrated Pest Management (IPM) method for treating drywood termites, carpenter ants and wood boring beetles.
Orange oil is a “least toxic/reduced risk drywood termite treatment”, created from a renewable resource, with an FDA³ GRAS Rating (Generally Regarded As Safe).
