TDS for Termites
Termites produce more CO2 than all other living things combined from their digestion of cellulose.
TDS Detects All Species of Termites:
Subterranean, Dry wood and Formosan Termites
The step by step process to detect termites:
With the unit in the HIGH SENSITIVITY SETTING slowly run the probe along the baseboard. If the alarm sounds every time the probe passes a certain point this will indicate termites in that area of the wall. This method is 85%-90% accurate, about as accurate as a Termite Dog.
To be 100% certain of an infestation, you then set the TDS unit to the lower SENSITIVITY SETTING, with the small probe attached, and make a needle size hole at the top of the baseboard in the caulk line where the termites were indicated and insert the probe. TDS can pick up a termite infestation within a five foot area.
If the alarm continuously sounds for up to ten seconds once you insert the probe, you have verified the termite infestation with 100% accuracy. (A dab of caulk after testing will make the needle size test hole disappear).
