Taurus SC is not labeled for fleas, nor is it allowed to be used anywhere fleas would be an issue. It cannot be sprayed indoors at all, and it cannot be sprayed beyond 2 feet of the structures foundation. It would be more harmful to use this outside of its label than it would be to use two different chemicals on the same property for two different purposes. Talstar P is a very widely used insecticide for lawn treatments of fleas, ticks, and similar insects and can be applied monthly if needed to the lawn. Pets need to be out of the direct treatment area while application is being made, and until all the surfaces have dried. This is usually around 2 hours or so after spraying.
Yes, in order to have a complete preventative barrier, trenching is necessary and so is treating the backfill with your solution of Taurus SC. If you do not treat the trenched area, you risk leaving gaps that are not treated where termites could pass through and not be affected by the chemical. Please review our Subterranean Termite Treatment Guide for further tips and information that may fit your needs.
Taurus SC Termiticide can only be applied right up against a structure and not broadcast over a large area as directed on the product label. We are unable to provide a rate for or advise on off label usage.
We apologize but cannot comment on that other than to say to use as directed on the Taurus SC Termiticide product label. Every county has a list of approved insecticides to use inside schools and daycares. You should contact your local department of agriculture to get a copy of the approved product list for your county and ap. We apologize but are unable to make a recommendation for this reason
