Ban the use of Sulfuryl Fluoride & Chlorpicrin


Ban the use of Sulfuryl Fluoride & Chlorpicrin
The Issue
Health Effects of Tenting
Sulfuryl fluoride is a central nervous system depressant, and is highly toxic to humans, animals and plants. Sulfuryl fluoride is mixed with a form of tear gas known as chloropicrin. Do you really want this gas in your house ?
Environmental Dangers
When the tent is removed from a home, sulfuryl fluoride rapidly escapes from the home. Though they say this gas no longer poses an threat to the home's occupants, it certainly pose's dangers to the environment. Sulfuryl fluoride is a potent greenhouse gas, and contributes to global warming. This gas stays in the atmosphere for 40 years, and may linger for as long as a century. Even worse, this gas is 4,000 percent more effective than carbon dioxide when it comes to trapping in heat, which could contribute to climate change.
The Benefits of using D-Liminite Orange Oil
It offers a solution to termite problems that is harmless to Humans, Pets & Plants.
Orange Oil
Orange oil is made mostly of d-limonene, which is deadly to termites. The oil is derived from orange peels, and you can buy it from home improvement or garden stores, as well as online. Orange oil causes the exoskeletons of termites to dissolve, which causes them to lose moisture and proteins and then to die. Spray the oil directly onto termites or on areas where you suspect termites to be. You can also spray the oil to deter termites from coming into the area. Therefore, spraying it regularly is a good way to keep your home free of termites, whether you currently have any or not.
Other All Natural Ways of Eliminating Termites
Nematodes
Nematodes are parasitic worms that love to munch on termites. You can buy these tiny worms online or in specialty stores. You can then release them into the area where you know (or suspect) that termites have settled in, and they will go to work for their lunch. The nematodes will reproduce and continue to seek out termites until they are all gone. They are very efficient at getting rid of termites if you introduce enough of them to the colony.
Vinegar
Vinegar is the wonder material for your home. Not only can you use it to clean everything from your kitchen counter to shower, but you can also use it to kill termites. Just mix up a half a cup of it with the juice from two lemons, and you’ve got your termite killer. Put it in a spray bottle and spray the mixture around the area where you suspect the termites. The acidic substance will kill the termites on contact. Make sure you spray regularly to catch any termites you didn’t get with the last treatment.
Borates
Sodium borate, sold commonly as borax powder, can kill termites – as well as wash your laundry. You can either sprinkle the powder around the affected area, or you can mix it with water and spray it into an area that you believe to be infested. As with the vinegar, you will need to reapply the solution to ensure that you are reaching more of the colony.
Wet Cardboard
Termites love two things: Water and cellulose. Spray down a piece of cardboard with water, and you will be setting out an all-you-can-eat buffet for termites. Why would you want to do to this? Well, if you think that termites are already in your house, putting down this cardboard bait will lure them out and onto a specific spot. When you see that termites have settled in for the buffet, you can take the piece of cardboard away and burn it, killing all the termites with it. Repeat the process as often as necessary to draw out term
