Can Taurus SC Termiticide be applied in a trench that is more than 6 inches away from the house?

There is a pvc pipe underground that runs right next to the house where I need to do the trenching and apply the solution. Should I trench further away (more than 6 inches from the house) past the pipes or is it ok to trench right above the pipes?

Answer:

No, per the product label, you cannot trench more than 6 inches away from the foundation. If the pvc pipe that runs right next to the home, is a french drain, and is within or right below the 6 inches being dug for the trench, the best method will be to do a backfill treatment with Taurus SC. The backfill method instructs you to trench and place the soil that was removed onto a tarp, pour 1 gallon of diluted solution per 1 cubic ft of soil, mix thoroughly, return soil to trench.
