The Unmatched Benefits of TermiMesh Stainless Steel Termite Barriers
Discover why architects, commercial builders, and property owners rely on TMA725 proprietary stainless steel mesh for permanent, chemical-free exclusion of Eastern subterranean and Formosan termites.
Unyielding Physical Defense for Lifetime Structural Protection
Traditional chemical soil treatments fade, wash away, and degrade over time, leaving homes vulnerable to subterranean termite invasion. The TermiMesh system provides an unyielding, non-chemical physical barrier engineered to protect building foundations for the entire life of the structure against both native Eastern subterranean termites and invasive Formosan colonies.
Manufactured from the superior TMA725 proprietary stainless steel, TermiMesh installs during pre-construction around high-risk entry points, including slab plumbing penetrations, control joints, and perimeter footings.
"The fundamental benefit of TermiMesh is permanent, mechanical exclusion. Chemicals lose potency and wash away, but TMA725 stainless steel mesh creates a physical boundary that termites cannot chew through or squeeze past for the lifetime of the foundation."
: Joel Roehling, General Manager of TermiStop USA
TermiMesh vs Traditional Chemical Soil Barriers
| Benefit Category | Traditional Chemical Soil Treatments | TermiMesh Stainless Steel Barrier |
|---|---|---|
| System Lifespan | Degrades over time, requiring re-treatment | Permanent (lasts the life of the structure) |
| Species Coverage | Chemical breakdown gaps allow entry by native & invasive species | 100% Exclusion of Eastern Subterranean & Formosan species |
| Environmental Safety | Uses synthetic chemical termiticides | 100% Non-toxic and chemical-free |
| Physical Integrity | Disrupted by soil shifting or landscaping | Embedded, solid, superior TMA725 stainless steel |

Customer Testimonials
It’s always good when your customers have something nice to say about you. Read what architects, builders, pest management professionals, and homeowners say about Termistops and the Termimesh System.
“Termimesh is the only practical and permanent non–toxic termite treatment on the market. It is also a critical component of our efforts to promote ‘real and relevant’ green building. Specifically, it preserves the quality of the groundwater and reduces the chance for indoor air quality problems – both associated with traditional chemical based treatments. It is the ONLY system we use on ALL of our homes in Texas, and would welcome the ability to specify it for all of the residential and commercial projects throughout the United States.”

” I’m a huge fan of Termimesh, and I’ve used it exclusively for the past seven years. This technology will prevent termite infestations for the life of the houses I built; it does not harm the environment and is cost-effective. It’s a winning combination.
“Green building’s first and foremost tenant in my mind is ‘do no harm.’ When we compare the Termimesh System to traditional chemical-based termite measures there is no comparison. This is a static system that will last the life of the house and has zero environmental impact. I love Termimesh.”

“These are exceptional products that help to impede/prevent termite infiltration into the house’s wood framing for a 100 plus years. No yearly termite service costs, no poisons around your house. I wouldn’t even consider not using Termistop or Termimesh in any construction project that would benefit from these products as part of the termite prevention system.”
