    Q
    drain board
    My foundation has "dimple drain board" in this case W.R. Meadows "Mel Drain." It would seem that the treatment would run down the drain to the drain tile. How do you suggest I treat without this happening?
    A
    When applying Termidor SC, it is recommened to wait till it has not rained for 24 hours before application and will not rain for 24 hrs after application. If Termidor SC has been able to dry for 24 hours it has had plenty of time to bond to the soil and would not go through fabric and into the drainage channel. Please contact us directly Mon-Fri 9am-5pm EST if you have any further questions.

  • Asked by Art from Corpus Christi,texas
    01/05/2015
    Q
    What is the best product for controlling ghost ants
    A
    The most effective way to get rid of ants will be to use a product that will not only kill the ants that actually come into contact with treated surfaces but will also be transferred back to the nest. There are a variety of liquid concentrates that work with a transfer effect such as Termidor SC, Taurus SC, Dominion 2L and Adonis 2F. All of these products are for use outdoors only and should be sprayed directly on or immediately adjacent to the structure for ant control (they cannot be used indoors and they cannot be broadcast sprayed outdoors and they cannot be used on edible vegetation). You can also use ant baits indoors and outdoors for ghost ant control. Ant Baits will be picked up by the foraging ants and carried back to the nesting area and shared. Most folks choose to use a combination of products. They use ant baits indoors and in sensitive areas and they use the liquid concentrates outdoors

    Q
    Advantage = fipronil +imadocloprid. Is this true?
    I read in our local paper that Advantage flea products are made with fipronil and imadocloprid. The author bought a gallon of each from you and mixed it according to instructions supplied with the product. If this is all true I am very interested in doing the same thing for my pets. I have two small dogs and four cats.
    A
    We apologize but none of the products we carry with those active ingredients are labeled to be used to make your own flea products.  We have actually been in touch with that website to have our information removed from their site as it is very misleading.  Products must be used following the instructions on the product labels. We do carry several products for use on pets for fleas though and they can be found here.

    Q
    if im using termidor sc in my tank and want to use termidor 80 WG later do i need to clean and purge my tank?
    I know they make the same chemical solution when mixed with water. But I know the 80 WG bonds better to surfaces and don't want to dilute the chemical.
    A
    We would recommend cleaning out your tank fully after using any type of insectide. This will prevent it from clogging and the parts wearing out.

    Can you use Termidor on lawns in FL for ants bugs etc use now for foundation

    Q
    Termidor bubbling my concrete
    I had my home treated for termites and on my colored concrete is a white patchy substance that is eating my concrete. What can I use to remove that if it is indeed from the treatment. It gets this weird white stuff almost like snow on it?
    A
    We apologize but we have never heard of Termidor bubbling concrete or any other surface or causing any sort of discoloration. We would suggest contacting the manufacturer of Termidor directly at 800-669-2273 or the company who installed your colored concrete to find out what kind of chemicals it may have to cause a reaction with other items.

  • Asked by Julie from South Georgia
    03/23/2015
    Q
    Our house has a crawl space. Can we spray Termidor directly on the ground to prevent termites?
    A
    Spraying just on the surface of the ground with Termidor SC will not offer any protection from termites in the crawl space.  We would recommend doing the crawl space with Termidor by trenching the inside perimeter and around all of the piers, and treat just as you would around the outside.  We have a great video with instructions here on how to do so.

    Q
    Does Termidor kill young rhododendrons near house?
    Using a direct injection unit, Termidor SC was injected at the perimeter of the base of the brick exterior of a new kitchen addition on 11/5/2014 using the trench/soil injection method. Three young rhododendrons were planted about 2 feet away from the house. They did not survive the winter. Could the Termidor be responsible for killing these perennials?
    A
    It is highly unlikely the Termidor killed the rhododendrons. Now, if they were young, the injection or disruption of the soil may have caused distress on the plant.

    Q
    Termidor/Tarus concentration and depth penetration....
    I have a two spots where the termites look like they are entering. I will use either Termidor or Tarus, but there are different concentrations. Is 0.06% ok or better to user higher in those spots. Additionally 4 gal per 10 feet is standard. Should I be decreasing the feet to get product deeper into ground in trouble areas.... If so how much? Lastly ok to use product day after rain
    A
    Both Termidor and Taurus would be applied at .8 oz per gallon of water.  The 6 inch deep trench is deep enough and there is generally no need to go lower than that.  Decreasing the footage the 4 gallons covers does not make the product penetrate deeper as it is going to bind to the soil it is applied to.  It is ok to use the product a day after rain but you want to make sure the soil is not too saturated with water from the rain.

    Q
    I have drop ceiling in garage. Can I spray Termidor between sheetrock and block wall and would this help?
    A
    Termidor SC is only labeled to be used outside as a termite prevention in a trench.  Inside it would only be used to treat active infestations by drilling directly into the wood they are infesting and spraying into the gallery.

    Q
    If I have already put down Taurus sc can I put Termidor on top of that?
    A
    We apologize, we need a little bit more information to better answer your question. What are you treating for? There really would be no need to apply Termidor over Taurus as they both work the same way.

    A
    As long as you can apply  Termidor SC in the trench indoors and out, then there should be no reason to have to treat the cinder blocks.

    Q
    The Carpenter ants are entering the home from the outside. Ficam W used to solve the problem quickly. What now?
    A
    We recommend that you treat the exterior of the structure with Termidor SC (1 ft up and 1 ft out) once every six months. We also carry an Indoor Carpenter Ant Kit that offers a non-repellent spray for crevices, a protein bait granule and a bait gel for inside the home.

    Q
    Is Termidor SC still good after a year?
    I used this for the first time last summer to deal with Carpenter Ants and it worked fantastic! The opened bottle was stored in our basement this past Midwest winter. I just noticed a few scouts out already and got the bottle and mixed up a batch for some proactive treatment. When I was mixing in my sprayer, I noticed a few little clumps in the sprayer when I added the Termidor to the water. There was no rotten egg smell.
    A
    Termidor SC has approximately a 5 year shelf life when kept out of direct sunlight and out of extreme temperatures.

    Q
    Leaking of Termidor into the garage?
    In one of my houses, the garage foundation leaks a little water when we have hard rain. Will the trench method cause the termidor or any other product to leak into the property? I really don't want this stuff in my living space, do I?
    A
    Termidor has low solubility in water. It will bind with the soil and should not leak into your living space.
