Most of the the home is surrounded by cement and brick. The front lawn and backyard does touch the walls so we will trench that area. How much termidor for treating the perimeter of a 1700 square foot home? Also, do you recommend a "dam" method while trenching; sectioning off portions while waiting for Termidor to make its way into the soil?
How much termidor you need is dependant on the lineal feet around the house, not the square footage. Each 20 oz. bottle of Termidor will treat 60 lineal feet. So every 60 feet around your home you will need one bottle of Termidor. Most homes need 3 to 4 bottles. Please follow the instructions in our How To Do A Termite Treatment article.
