Tips for use

General Pest Control
Fivestar provides quick action and long-lasting protection against pests like ants, cockroaches, fleas, flies, mosquitoes, spiders, ticks, and wasps. It works instantly on contact and continues to protect as pests touch treated surfaces.

Termite Control
Fivestar helps stop and manage termites when used correctly following Australian standard AS3660. It creates a protective barrier in the soil, preventing termites from entering buildings unnoticed. For best results, professional pest controllers should identify the termite species and behavior.

Crops, Plants, and Lawns
Fivestar protects crops, ornamental plants, and lawns from pests. Use it regularly to prevent infestations or treat existing ones. For best results, apply before pest populations grow too large.
