  • Asked by Anna from Clovis, Ca

    Q
    Can I do a soil drench around the drip line of a deodora tree with a Premise?
    A
    Most termiticides like Premise Pre-Construction Insecticide are only labeled to be used adjacent to a structure.  Termites do not normally attack live, healthy trees so you most likely will not find any products that will work as a ground barrier around the trees.  Most people are primarily concerned with protecting the big investment, their home.  For treatment around a tree you could use a product like Dominion that is labeled to be applied in more areas.

  • Asked by Andy from Los Angeles, Ca
    04/09/2017
    Q
    Will Premise Pre-Construction Insecticide kill existing termites in the wood?
    I'm doing some repairs on a structure with Termite damage. Would this product be suitable for treating the affected wood, to prevent termites damaging the new wood I'm installing as part of the repairs?
    A

    Premise Pre-Construction is used for the prevention of termites around the perimeter of your home. This product binds with the soil. We would recommend treating the wood directly with something like Boracare or Timbor. These products should only be used on raw wood only. Be sure to use a sealant or paint on the wood after application. This will last for the life of the wood once this has been done.

  • Asked by Melissa
    04/23/2021
    Q
    Can Premise Pre-Construction Insecticide be used on general ants?
    A

    Premise Pre Construction Insecticide is not a product we would recommend to use for ants or general insect control. That being said the Premise Product Label goes over extensively and in great detail how to use this product for ants in multiple paragraphs should you wish to use it for that purpose. If you use the Ctrl + F search function when opening document/label and type in "ants" as the key term, you can see all of the areas of the label that it refers to use instructions. That being said, this product is very rarely used for that purpose. If you want a product that would be recommended instead for ant control both indoors and out, Temprid FX would be an ideal choice.
