Shelf life vs effective treatment life of Taurus SC Termiticide

I see that the shelf life at room temperature is five (5) years. However, the product is effective (foundation trench treatment) for up to eight (8) years. Can you explain why the products works to prevent termites for 8 years but is only storable for five years? AND if I store the product for five years and then re-treat my foundation, will the product still provide the same 8-year protection? Thanks, Dave from Gulf Shores, AL

Answer:

Taurus SC, when applied to a termite trench, adheres to soil particles, shielding the active ingredient, fipronil, from degradation. The soil's stable environment helps maintain the product's potency for up 10 years. Yes, storing Taurus SC for up to five years and then reapplying it to your foundation can still provide 10 years of protection. As long as the product has been stored correctly and is within its expiration date, its effectiveness will remain unchanged.
