    Q
    Can we spray Termidor SC inside an attic?
    A

    Termidor SC is not labeled to be used indoors unless you are using inside wall voids and are treating an active infestation. If you are unsure of what type of termites you are treating for, we would recommend getting them identified before doing any type of treatments.

    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 drain…

    Q
    Can Termidor SC be applied more than 48 hours before a preconstruction slab is poured?
    What is the recommended time frame to treat preconstruction slabs with termidor SC?
    A

    Termidor SC needs atleast 24 hours to bond to soil before pouring a concrete slab. You should apply Termidor SC at the rate of 1 gallon per 10 square feet.  You should apply slightly more around the perimeter edges and around any plumbing pipes or expansion joints that will be in the slab.

    Q
    We have termites in our palm trees, how and can we treat them?
    A

    Termites do not normally attack live, healthy trees so you most likely will not find any products that will work as a ground barrier around the trees.  Most people are primarily concerned with protecting the big investment, their home, and Termidor SCwould be the product to use for that.&n…

    Does this product work on drywood termites?
    A

     For Termidor SC to work on Drywood termites, you have to drill directly into the piece of wood the termites are in and inject Termidor into the wood.  Termidor does not penetrate into wood, so you have to inject it into the center.  It has to touch the termites to work…

Termidor is meant to be applied indoors as spot treatment only. It is recommended to perform the same 6inx6in trench in the crawspace as around the outside perimeter.…

    Q
    How do I get rid of indoor termites?
    I have found through research that a rarely used Powder Room in our home has many termite (tunnels) hanging from the ceiling. At first they looked like little pin holes. Now they look like underground caverns. I desperately need to get rid of these and then move on to the large amount of tunnels around the outer perimeter of my 13 year old home. Help!!!!! I can not afford Professional Services.

    We would recommend that you apply a termite treatment in the soil surrounding the structure to form a continuous barrier that will kill and prevent subterranean termites from entering your home. A termite soil treatment will kill the termites that are inside of your home as well as the termite colon…

    Q
    When is it safe for children to be around when using Termidor inside?
    We are drilling holes inside our house on the concrete slab and using Termidor. Is it safe for children to be around, or how long before it is safe for them?
    A

    No, we would NOT recommend using Termidor SC when children are around. Once the product is dry, it is safe for your children to return to the area. Termidor SC normally dries within a matter of hours depending on the temperatures outdoors.

    Q
    How to treat home with full basement, brick siding, and hollow block wall with solid cap?
    One side of basement hollow block wall is almost completely under ground (7 feet). Brick does not go underground on that side but does on the other sides. Half of the basement is finished so there is no access to the hollow block walls in that section which includes half the wall that is almost completely underground. My house was built in 1982 and at some point block walls were drilled as was the attached garage slab. I have owned for 20 years. What should my trench goal be? Should I be concerned with creating a 1-foot deep barrier or do I attempt to reach the footing 7 feet below the surface? The finished portion of basement has drop tile ceiling and every year I inspect and find no termite evidence. But we do have termites in wood pile which is 60 feet from house.
    A

    First, please review our Barrier treatment article.   You still want to trench 6inx6in all the around the perimeter. You do not have to reach the footer. In places you cannot trench you would drill every 12 in using a 18 in long 1/2 inch wide drill bit. It is fantastic that you keep up wit…

    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.

    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 t…

    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.

    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.

    Termidor SC is really designed to be used outdoors. Boracare would be best. The interior wood pieces that are exposed will have to be stripped prior to the application if they are painted or stained. The manufacturer has told us that Boracare is not corrosive and it should not harm the interior of t…

    Do you know the exact species? There are no known resistance species of ant to Termidor so it would work to kill any ant colony. However, Termidor can not be used in any indoor space unless you are doing a direct spot treatment in a regularly unaccessible area on the whole colony. If you see an area…
