When doing a trench treatment for termites 4 gallons of mixed solution of Taurus SC Termiticide needs to be used to treat every ten linear feet of trenching.
Taurus SC is labeled for roaches. Keep in mind that this product can only be applied outdoors around the perimeter of a home or other structure.
Taurus SC Termiticide can be applied a foot up and a foot out directly against the structure on all sides. It cannot be used in the garage. You must keep all applications outside of the structure. If you would like a product that you can use indoors and outdoors for ants and centipedes, we recommend Talstar P.
Taurus SC Termiticide should not be applied to areas where there are cattle or livestock.
Yes, Taurus SC Termiticide is labeled for yellow jackets and can be sprayed in eaves and around openings to help eliminate them.
Taurus SC does not bond to rock, it bonds to soil, so if the area right up against the foundation is not soil, Taurus SC will not stick to it and it will leave you with that area of completely unprotected surface that the termites could pass through to get directly to your home. While you can do the trench just outside of this rock area, it would still leave the area under the rock closer to the foundation unprotected. If you are able to remove the rock against the foundation and treat several inches of the soil there that would be best and then you can do the more complete trench around the rock once backfilled in.
Taurus SC Termiticide will last for 10 years in the soil just like Termidor.
Taurus SC Termiticide can be used in sandy soil but it would not be recommended to backfill with just sand.
Taurus SC is not labeled for lawn use or any use away from the structure. You would need to apply this product around the perimeter of the structure, one foot up and one foot out. You would mix at 0.8 oz per gallon per 1,000 sq ft and treat once every 6 months. If you have ants in the lawn or inside the structure, we would advise using the other items in our Outdoor/indoor Ant Kit. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Ants for a successful eradication program.
Taurus SC Termiticide can only be applied 1 foot up the side of the structure, 1 foot out into the soil, and around doors and windows of a structure. In any areas outside of that, it is recommended to copiously water those areas in an attempt to diminish the residual and transferability of the product. Taurus doesn’t kill insects quickly, it’s designed for the insect to pick it up on it’s body and transfer it to other insects it comes into contact with, which can be detrimental for beneficial insects like bees and butterflies.
No, Taurus SC Termiticide will not interfere with the water lines going into the home. Use caution when digging the trench to avoid hitting your water line.
Taurus SC Termiticide should not be applied to home lawns or pastures (or other grazing areas). It is intended to be applied around the exterior perimeter of structures and in the soil against the foundation for subterranean termite applications.
Taurus SC Termiticide could only be used as an exterior treatment for roaches, earwigs and black widows and cannot be used indoors. It is not a knockdown kill. For 6 month residual, you will mix at 0.8 fl oz per gallon and for quarterly treatments, you will apply at 0.4 fl oz per gallon. Spray 1 ft to 2 ft up and 1 ft out around doors, windows, vents, pipes, foundation cracks, drilled holes or around any exterior openings where listed pests could enter the structure. Make sure to treat the joint where exterior siding (wood, vinyl, aluminium or other similar materials) meets the cement, brick or block foundation.
Indoors, we would suggest using Temprid FX along baseboards, floorboards, around windows, doors, behind appliances, under cabinets, behind toilets, in closets, etc.
Taurus SC can only be applied directly to an active nest in a tree. As long as the tree is healthy, there is no need to do a preventative treatment.
Taurus SC Termiticide is not labeled for chiggers nor can be used out in the lawn.
Bifen IT is labeled to control chiggers and will work great for this use when applied to areas where chiggers harbor. Treatments for chiggers should begin in May and could need to continue through the summer as new chiggers move into the area. Treating the entire lawn is of little benefit because chiggers avoid direct sunlight and normally will not infest areas that are mowed or otherwise well maintained. Focus treatment on the unkempt areas of the lawn and lawn edge.
Taurus SC Termiticide can be used to spot treat active infestations of ants inside. You must find and directly treat the nest to do so as listed on the product label.
Taurus SC does not require the use of an IGR but one can be used, like NyGuard IGR, if it's being applied for general pest control around the perimeter of your home.
Taurus SC Termiticide would only be applied in a trench along the inside wall of a crawl space if you are treating for an active infestation of termites. Otherwise you would just apply the trench around the pillar/columns.
