When I bought the product, I don't recall it saying to dig a trench. It just said spray it around the perimeter of the house. I'm wondering if it will work. I'm afraid to reapply in that the termites will detect its presence if too strong.
If you are using Taurus SC Termiticide for termite prevention, yes it must be applied in a trench as explained in our guide here as well as on the product label. For just general pests it can be sprayed around the perimeter of the home 1 to 2 feet up and out on the ground but this not effect termites that do not contact the surface. When termites forage they are inches below the soil
