I'm seeing termite pellets and wood damage at the bottom of a window. I would drill several holes into the edge of the wood window and inject the foam. How long should I wait before doing the paint prep and applying paint on the treated wood? I will want to paint over the drilled hole/foam to hide the treatment.
Yes, you can use Termidor Foam in the window frame. You will need to drill into the infested area and apply the foam. Termidor FOAM expands rapidly creating a dry foam that can be applied in the voids, harborages, galleries, and nests where insects are found. The foam generated has an expansion ratio of 30:1. In about 5 seconds 1 oz. of a product becomes approximately 1 quart of foam. The foam will dissipate and dry clear, so you could paint anytime after the application has dried.
