I’m a builder, and I’ve seen plenty of termite disasters.

When I saw the DIY TermiteTraps advertised, I thought the simple concept made sense so we put a dozen around our house but nothing happened for months and I wondered.

Then two traps showed the mud signal just as in the website photos. I added a couple of doses of the treatment and that was it! We threw a party, recharged the Traps with cardboard from the beer and pizzas (which cost us nothing) and the Traps are again hard at work, waiting to see if there are any more colonies game to forage in our yard.

I saw a little advert in the Sunday paper and phoned for information. It read OK and I bought a couple of cartons to put around my house and sheds. Within a couple of weeks, termites had signalled their arrival. I ordered some treatment, applied it according to instructions and the job was done.

We have a tractor business near Gatton Q, and, as the tractor business was pretty slow because of the drought and because these traps worked just like they claimed and were so keenly priced, my son Nigel and I reckoned we could use our busy Warrego Highway frontage and BIG signs to flag down passers-by and sell TermiteTraps to support us.

Ion came out to tell us more about termites and help us get started and, well, we’ve sold pallet loads of them. We don’t hard sell, that’s not our style. We just show people, answer any questions... And they buy!

I would like to express my delight at the success I have experienced with your product. There are a lot of termites in our area and I have had the house treated twice in 5 years to be on the safe side.

I installed 8 termite traps around my property and confess to not inspecting them as often as I should. When I did I discovered to my horror that 6 of the 8 were active or had been.

I had been getting a local pest control contractor to poison each trap but this was costly and I doubted the effectiveness.

I came across information about your product and decided to give it a try in the active traps. The termites seemed to have a voracious appetite for it and soon ate 4 or 5 tubs. In one instance I found their tracks in some discarded wood and put a pot of the growth inhibitor on top of it. It was gone in a week!

I now can’t find a termite anywhere! They have been in my firewood and it is covered in their mud tracks but they have all disappeared. All the re baited traps are now inactive and have been for months. It is truly amazing. A short while ago I could have found them under nearly any piece of wood.

Congratulations on a great product!

Kind regards and many thanks.

Dear Caroline and Ion,

Being on the land, I’ve had a bit of experience with termites and also with professional pest controllers who in the main have been decent, well trained blokes. But when it comes to the cost of treatment, your TermiteTrap system is so cost effective compared to professional pest controllers.

Your information pack and your website made it seem easy to do the whole thing myself. But the reason I’m writing this is, when I phoned, you both took the time to explain in simple language the non-toxicity of the treatment and how to check and treat some of the big old gum trees near the buildings.

Now that I’ve actually received my TermiteTraps and ‘planted’ them, I really appreciate the quality, the simplicity and feel very confident and understand why you say... “Paying more money doesn’t kill termites any deader than dead”

In appreciation,

Doug and Pam

Please keep me anonymous as I don't want any buyers to find out termites have been into my house but you were so helpful at the crisis time when i found the termites in the bathroom window frame, I'd like to help you back with this note.

I did just as you told me and stuck the bait feeders on the frame so the termites came out of the wood into the feeders and I fed them every couple of weeks for about 7 weeks until there were no more in the pot.

Also as you suggested, I tapped around and found hollow skirting boards in 2 places in the bedroom next to the bathroom and I put feeders there too.

They stopped feeding in the bedroom pots at the same time as the bathroom and I just want to say thanks again for inventing such a simple product to use— that cost me less than 10% of what I was quoted by the local pest bloke

Our termites must have read your advertising because they did exactly as you said.

We put the TermiteTraps in the garden where we found them burrowing through the bark mulch and eating the old sleepers along the path edge.

It took about 5 weeks for them to block up the hole in the top of the cardboard. What a simple idea to have that hole so i could look at it as I walked past.

Thinking back, I can't believe I was so excited to find termites!

Anyway, I fed them in that first Trap straight away and a few days later another Trap showed the signal so I started that one too. About 6 weeks later they had all stopped feeding.

It's now 6 months ago, and there are no termites anywhere in the mulch and as the termites are no longer eating the sleepers, I won't have to replace them.

Thank you Ion. Nice to know some products do what they claim.

I've become a successful Termite Trapper!

The termites followed the script: found the Traps, ate the bait, disappeared (died I bet) and I've reset the Traps using my own Pizza and wine cartons. 

Waiting to do it all again — if theres another colony game to take me on!

Thanks for your products and your How-To Guide.

I paid my money, received both products and hoped for the best.

I'd really disturbed the termites by ripping out all the damaged timbers before I phoned you but I did as you said and put Traps around the area and hoped the nest would find them.

It took 7 months and I'd given up.

But in November they gave me their what you called their "we've arrived " signal and I've been baiting them for 5 weeks now.

Good on you... and thanks

I have a house built of jarrah and didn't think termites would eat such hard wood but the previous owners had added a walk-in wardrobe using pine which I didn't know about.

Well the termites found the pine and I found the termites when the hanging rail and all the clothes ended up on the floor!  I spoke and you told me what to do using your feeders. I was a bit reluctant because I wanted them gone, NOW!

However I did as you said and the termites have finally gone.

Now I've put the Traps around the house in case there is another nest out there somewhere and I am going to follow your tips on inspecting the whole house every 6 months... just in case.

Thank you for inventing a product so simple and so low in cost which also works. Also, thank you for the clear and illustrated explanations

Can you please send me another couple of cartons of your Termite Traps.

It has been about three years I've been using the first couple of cartons and I've lost count of the number of kills I've had of these big Masto termites.

I've been using fipronil to kill them once they get into the Traps and now I'm sick of losing my mangoes and other fruit trees so this lot are going out into the orchard.

I reckon I'll build a big buffer zone as you call it.
