You should wear chemical resistant gloves, long sleeve shirt, long pants and close toed shoes when applying Termidor. If you are applying the product in a non-ventilated area, a respirator is will be needed. Termidor is a safe product for most folks to use. We do encourage our customers to read the product label and the MSDS before they purchase a product to be sure they will be comfortable using it.
Termidor SC should not be applied to flowers or shrubs. It is only applied in the soil up against the foundation of the structure for termite control (in a trench, rodded, drilled holes in concrete) or ant control topically (1 ft up and 1 ft out).
