Devon from Lawrenceburg, Ky writes
Have gravel around the exterior perimeter of the home but the interior is dirt crawl space. Can I just apply it to the inside of the crawl space? Do I still need a trench if the crawl space dirt floor is level with the top of the footer?
Yes, you want to treat the crawl space with Termidor SC per product label instructions. On the exterior wall where there may or not be gravel/french drain, you either have to move the gravel and treat the soil below it, and keep a close eye on the home throughout the year to make sure termites don't sneak through the gravel and bypass the soil, or you can use bait stations a few feet from the foundation past the gravel or within it to monitor for activity. You can treat the soil under the gravel in addition to bait stations around the perimeter as well if you would like to do both.
