Can I use Termidor SC for ants around a honey bee hive?

I would like to spray it on the ground around hive and also my home. Will it kill my bees? Is there anything better / safer to use?

Answer:

We would not recommend using Termidor SC around a honey bee hive. Instead, we would recommend using Mavrik Perimeter. Mavrik Perimeter is for outdoor use and is known for its immediate control of a variety of insects including mosquitoes, ants, spiders, ticks, springtails, cockroaches and fire ants. With Mavrik Perimeter there is no lingering odor or visible residue and when dry it is non toxic and non repellent to honey bees.
