There is always some risk associated with any pesticide application, but the safety of people, pets, and the environment is our top priority. The pest management professionals at Paramount are expertly trained and certified by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to apply pesticides on Long Island. Our technicians have extensive knowledge of proper dosage, application techniques, and target areas. By using the proper amount of pesticide and applying it precisely where needed, we reduce health risks and minimize the potential for overexposure or unnecessary pesticide use.

It is important to note that while we prioritize safety, homeowners should still follow the instructions and recommendations provided by our technicians. Open communication, proper preparation, and adherence to guidelines can further reduce any potential health risks associated with the treatment process.

In some instances, or by request only. The reason for this is because we have not found “natural” or “green” products to be nearly as effective as synthetics. However, our process and approach to pest control is as “green” as it gets. We only apply materials when necessary to areas of live pest activity based on our inspections and monitoring devices. We will never adopt a “spray and pray” philosophy by arbitrarily broadcasting pesticides all over your home. Effective, preventative pest control is achieved through ongoing inspection, the targeted and judicious application of materials only when and where necessary, and the identification and correction of conditions conducive to pests.

Each HPP service always begins with our technician knocking on your door and/or ringing your doorbell to announce themselves and ask if you would like indoor service. If you are having a pest problem inside your home, just let your dedicated Paramount professional know, and he/she will inspect and safely address the issue.

Indoor service includes visual inspection for evidence of pests, targeted treatment of live pest activity (if necessary), removal of trapped rodents as needed, inspection and/or placement of rodent traps as needed, and inspection/replacement off pest monitors as needed.

Whether or not you request indoor service, your scheduled HPP visits will always include visual inspection and preventative treatment (weather-allowing) for the control of covered pests around the exterior foundation of your home. If you are not home for an HPP visit, exterior inspection and treatment (weather allowing) will still be provided.

The helpful and knowledgeable staff at Paramount will always assist you with the specifications and safety requirements of every pest control treatment.

You can schedule service by calling our office at 516-362-2005 and/or via email at info@paramountipm.com. If you need to schedule or reschedule on short notice, calling our office will give you the fastest response. If you call outside of our business hours, please leave a message and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

If you are on one of our 30-Day Plans, you will receive the included number of services within the dates of your Plan. The goal of a short-term 30-day plan is to quickly control your pest problem safely and effectively.

Paramount understands the nature of termites and the damage they cause.

Knowing the difference between repellent and non-repellent insecticides, and which should be used to treat specific pests, is a significant part of professional pest management. Paramount knows termite behavior, biology, and the proper treatment methods to effectively eliminate and manage termites in any type of structure.

It all begins with an inspection of your property to gather the information we need to design a solution and present you with the options in a pleasant and professional manner. Termite control is one of our specialties and we only use the most advanced methods and materials available today. In addition, all of our termite management programs are backed by a re-treatment warranty protecting your home against re-infestation.

Large bait load, containerized for safety, kills termite colonies, proven track record.

Trelona ATBS is a time tested and proven termite elimination system that is installed around the immediate exterior of your home to provide long-term protection against damaging termites. The Trelona system is a viable alternative to traditional liquid chemical treatments and has far less impact on the environment. Depending on the situation, the Trelona ATBS System can be initially installed as a monitoring system or directly baited from day one.

Termites are constantly foraging in soil looking for food, and their preferred meal is wood…like the wood holding our homes together. Due to its large and innovative station design, termites find Trelona ATBS bait stations fast. Once termites find a station, they begin feeding on the cellulose matrix tablets within the Trelona Compressed Termite Bait cartridges, which termites prefer over the wood that homes are built of. Termites then travel back and forth to the colony in shelter (mud) tubes, sharing the bait containing Novaluron, a fast-acting insect growth regulator, with their nest-mates. As feeding on the bait continues and more and more termites are affected, the termite colony starts to die and is eventually eliminated. As a result, Trelona ATBS achieves on-going structural protection through termite colony elimination.

Trelona Termite Bait Stations are strategically installed around the entire exterior perimeter of your home, typically in the flower beds or soil abutting the foundation. The amount of stations required for proper coverage is determined by the size and layout of the home. Using an electric drill or gas powered auger, your Paramount Termite Specialist will excavate small holes in the soil about 2 feet out from the foundation, and each hole is approximately 3 inches in diameter by about 1 foot deep. After the holes are created, the stations are inserted into the cavities. The termite attractants and/or active bait cartridges are housed inside each station, which is buried in the soil to prevent access by children, wildlife, and pets. Only the top of each station and tamper-resistant cap are visible after installation.

Depending on the situation, the Trelona ATBS System can be initially installed as a monitoring system or directly baited from day one. When initially installed as a monitoring system, stations are checked quarterly for termite activity. When your Paramount Termite Specialist identifies sufficient termite activity in any station, as the label requires, active termite killing bait is placed inside infested stations and monitored until there is no evidence of active termites in the stations.

When initially installed with active termite killing bait, Trelona ATBS are inspected at least once per year. This reduces feeding disturbance and the number of required site visits compared to other termite baiting products that require shorter inspection intervals. The annual inspection label also gives us the flexibility to check the stations more frequently if heavy termite activity is present.

When installed according to the label, most Trelona ATBS termite bait cartridges can remain effective for 2 or 3 years under typical conditions. Aside from actual consumption of bait by termites, the length of time the bait will last in a station largely depends on environmental conditions, which can lead to a shorter life span.

Per the label, when more than 1/3 of the bait matrix within a single cartridge is consumed by termites, or is missing, the cartridge will be replaced. Tests have shown that bait cartridges with certain types of mold and/or fungus can be even more palatable to foraging termites, so the call for replacement for such stations will be made by your Paramount Termite Specialist during routine inspections. However, bait cartridges with excessive mold or fungus will be replaced.

Novaluron is a chitin synthesis inhibitor, also known as an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). Once Novaluron is in an insect’s system through direct contact with the bait, or transferred from another infected insect, it blocks the development of chitin (skin) so that the insect cannot form a new exoskeleton or shed the old one. Thus, affected insects die during the molting (growing) process, leaving no replacement insects to sustain the colony. Adult termite workers don’t live very long, and without new workers, the termite soldiers and reproductives (future kings and queens) soon starve because they rely on workers to bring them food. Novaluron has been proven to be effective against termites as a result of many laboratory and field trials.

As mentioned above, the active ingredient in Trelona Compressed Termite Bait used inside the Trelona ATBS stations is in a pesticide group called Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs). IGRs are considered some of the safest pesticides to use as they only affect undeveloped insects that contact or feed on the material. Even if by some chance the active ingredient leaches from the bait into the soil, it will not have any effect on nearby plants or the insects that visit them. If a pet or child dug up a station and ate the bait inside it will not cause any more harm than eating a piece of paper covered in dirt and fungus.
