    Q
    Can you still power wash outside of home etc after trenching home with Taurus?
    After trenching home with Taurus, will washing/powering washing home with a multi purpose cleaner affect the Taurus treatment. Of course this wil not be performed right after treating but weeks or months later?

    Q
    How long does an application Taurus SC Termiticide last?
    Would we need to treat every year or would it last up to 10 years?
    A

    The residual for Taurus SC Termiticide will depend on which application method you are using.  If you are doing a trenching application, it will last in the soil for up to 10 years. If using as a perimter spray (1 foot up the siding, 1 foot out into the soil all the way around the perimeter, along with around entry points like doors and windows), it will last about 6 months.

  • Asked by Tony from Chesapeake, Va
    11/01/2018
    Q
    I have a new home next to some woods that have termite infested trees. Can I spray the woods with Taurus SC?
    A

    Taurus SC Termiticide cannot be used to just spray woods for termites and there really isn’t much you can do for them there.  They are natures recyclers so should be left alone in that area.  We would recommend trenching around your home with the product so that it is protected.  We have a step by step guide that will walk you through how to do your own termite trenching treatment. You can see the guide by clicking on the link here.

  • Asked by Tony from Harvey, La
    10/25/2018
    Q
    How do I apply Taurus SC Termiticide to a home that's on concrete blocks?
    A

    We recommend that you trench and drill around the structure when applying Taurus SC Termiticide . Please refer to our Termite Treatment Article/Video for more detailed application instructions. It is very important to trench each side of the hollow blocks, even more important than drilling into each block to inject the Taurus SC Termiticide  solution. The problem is that the termites will be still be able to build tubes on the outer areas of the blocks and still access your home. Your treatments will be far more successful if you trench and treat on either side of the hollow block. Bora-Care can be applied 90 days after the Taurus SC Termiticide  application for treatment of the raw wood.

  • Asked by Patricia
    10/16/2018
    Q
    Why can't Taurus SC be applied indoors for ant problem?
    A

    Taurus SC Termiticide is NOT labeled for indoor general pest control. The Taurus SC Termiticide product label only allows indoor applications to wall voids (behind sheet rock), unfinished attics, unfinished basements, and crawlspaces for active termite infestations.  Taurus SC Termiticide could be harmful if used indoors and would be in violation of the product label.

    You can use the companion product Phantom Insecticide for ants indoors.
