    Q
    Will Termidor have any effect on white grubs?
    A

    No, Termidor SC is not labeled for white grubs. You can use Dominion 2L Termiticide instead if you are looking for a liquid or Merit 0.5 G Insecticide Granules if you are looking for a granule. Both will work, just depends if you prefer to apply with a spreader or a sprayer.

    Q
    I have termites along the bottom of the wood fence around the backyard. What is the best way to treat this?
    A

    Termidor SC works best if applied in a trench around the fence post.  Another option will be using BoraCare. Boracare will penetrate into the wood and last for the lifetime of the wood if applied to raw unpainted wood. Once the Boracare has been applied to the fence, you will need to seal/stain/pai…

    I accidentally sprayed Termidor sc along the base of my garage's concrete wall and floor, before remembering it's not labeled for Indoor use. It is a low-traffic area that is mostly covered by other objects. How long will it take for the termidor sc to wear off on concrete?

    Termidor SC has a residual of up to 6 months at the 0.06% dilution rate, and up to 3 months at the 0.03% dilution rate.

  • Asked by Andrew from Greensboro

    Q
    Is a perimeter treatment with Termidor effective at getting rid of an existing termite investigation?
    A

    Termidor SC is applied in a 6-inch deep x 6-inch wide trench around the home for the prevention and treatment of termites.  It would not be effective just sprayed on the surface as you would for general pests, because termites are inches below when foraging for food and do not crawl on the surface.…

    Q
    Wet cardboard with Termidor SC?
    If I soak cardboard with Termidor SC, and then let it dry, and then later place the cardboard underground in a roll, can it be used to kill the termite colony if I know there is a termite nearby? Cardboard has cellulose, and the mix of Termidor may perhaps do the trick.
    A

    Termidor SC is designed to either be sprayed  into a wall void, around the foundation of a structure or applied directly in a trench. Please see the label for full application instructions.

    Q
    Attic use of Termidor SC?
    I'm kind of freaking out bc my exterminator applied this all throughout my attic and I just saw it says outside use only. Should I be concerned?
    A

    Termidor is only labeled to be used inside when treating an active infestation but it does not penetrate into the wood.  While we cannot comment on what a professional company is going to do, when treating for an active drywood termite infestation you must treat it directly.

    Q
    Will a 6x6 trench be an adequate treatment if I have a hollow block foundation?
    We found an active termite colony in our home so I got Termidor SC and mixed it at 1.6 I followed the directions and dug a 6x6 trenched around the exterior of my home. One area in the middle of my gable side wall has a small hill so that one area might have been 10-11 inches, I was trying to keep the area level so the treatment would be equal and level. I had to drill the slab on my front porch 12 inches in center it sits around 2.5 ft above ground level, I pumped Termador SC down at an angle towards the foundation wall, but couldn't really get it into the soil. Should I also inject the Termidor sc into the hollow block wall, or is my treatment sufficient?
    A

    When doing the trenching method, the Termidor SC will need to be applied around the entire perimeter and any supporting piers being sure to follow the product label instructions. If the piers/blocks are hollow, the product will also need to be injected into this area as well for best results.

    How do you treat termites under a deck that is 6 to 12 inches above the ground?
    How do you treat termites under a deck that is 6 to 12 inches above the ground, with Termidor sc, that runs along 1 side of the house? I would prefer not to RIP it off, also is the application temperature dependent as long as the ground isn't frozen
    A

    Depending on the termites you can use Termidor foam or Taurus SC.  If you would like to do a local treatment in the wood you can drill and inject the foam for control.  Or if they are subterranean termites you can do a soil treatment and or a local spray for control.  Please let me know if you ha…

    Better to apply outside or inside of crawl space ?
    I am building a new home and the block and foundation are finished. I have the opportunity to apply on the inside of my block now before house starts to be built. Any advantages of trenching inside over outside ? or is it recommended to just do the outside.
    A

    Inside the crawl space you would need to trench around any foundation piers with Termidor SC or Taurus SC that have direct soil contact and support the home but for the actual foundation, trenching around the exterior perimeter of the foundation would be all that is required for the 10 year barrier …

    Can I pour Termidor solution into an existing termite hole/tunnel to kill the colony? Or do I have to dig up the 'hive' in the dirt to reach the queen directly?

    If you are trying to use Termidor SC indoor, yes it can be sprayed in a crevice where there is activity. If you are trying to use it outdoors, you would need to trench around the perimeter of the home. Keep in mind this product can only be used 1 foot up & 1 foot out from the home, it cannot be used…

    I accidentally used .8 ounces of Termidor SC per 4 gallons instead of the recommended amount.
    What should I do to correct this?

    If you did not apply the correct amount of Termidor SC you would need to redo the entire trench and apply at the rate of 3.2 fl oz in 4 gallons per 10 lineal feet to get the correct application.

    Q
    Termador SC dogs bringing it into house after rain
    Yesterday we had a pest control company come out and treat for termites. Prior to this it rained a little bit so the soil was still wet. They applied the termidor SC around the perimeter and underneath of the home. They said it would dry within 2 hours time but there was no sun out, it was pretty dismal and after the 2 hours time it started to downpour and hasn't stopped. My worry is that we have dogs that need to go out to use the potty and I'm afraid they're going to be dragging it in and out of the house all over stuff. And we also have a pet bird that we have removed from the house prior to them spaying and are worried let this stuff is now contaminated the whole house because of the dogs and don't want anything to happen to the bird or the dogs for us in general. We're worried about touching things the dogs have contacted, and then bringing it in to the bird.
    A

    Unfortunately, this is not a common situation and therefore, we are unable to advice. We recommend contacting the emergency number on the safety data sheet (SDS), 1-800-424-9300 and we also recommend to contact the company that performed the treatment.
