  • Asked by Gabriele from Sarasota Florida
    02/10/2014
    Q
    Does it help with fire ant mounts in Florida?
    A
    Termidor is not labeled to be used to control Fire Ant Mounds and should not be used further than 3 feet away from a structure. We recommend using Talstar P (liquid) or Talstar XTRA (granule) instead. When treating Fire Ants it is best to perform both broadcast and mound treatments. Please be sure to read the product label for complete use instructions.

    Q
    Your concrete drilling directions indicate 2-3 inches away and then says "on the seam".
    A
    You drill holes through the concrete about 2 to 3 inches away from the wall or foundation, and about every 10"-12" apart, only on the seam where the concrete is against the foundation. You are not only drilling through just the concrete here, but also as deep as you can into the dirt.

  • Asked by Jeff from Pleasanton
    03/18/2014
    Q
    I live in CA, Orange Oil is advertised regularly. Is Termidor an orange oil?
    A
    No, Termidor is not Orange Oil. Orange Oil is a completely natural product that some people try to use for control of termites as well as other insects. We are not as familiar with Orange Oil and how well it actually works in comparison with the professional grade products we carry. We can tell you however that Termidor SC is the top professional product on the market for subterranean termite control and is completely safe when used according to the product label for treatments. If you would like to see how Termidor should be used to either treat an active infestation or protect the home from any infestations of termites, you can see our guide How To Perform A Termite Treatment, which gives you step by step instructions as well as a full "How To" video.

  • Asked by Alana from Morrisonville
    03/25/2014
    Q
    How do I do a termite barrier treatment when I have a slab on 3 sides of my home?
    How would I treat the center walls in my home?
    A
    You will need to use a hammer drill to get through the slab and into the soil. Theholes should be drilled every 10-12 inches and be about 18-24 inches deep. You will need to apply about a 1/2 gallon of the finished solution to each of the holes. On  the side without the slab surrounding the structure you will trench right up against the foundation and apply the product as directed on the product label, 4 gallons per 10 linear feet. If you are on a slab there is usually only a need to treat the center walls if you see activity. If you do have current activity you can drill into the wall and spray the colony directly with Termidor or you can foam the wall with Termidor Foam.

  • Asked by Mike from Murrysville, Pa
    05/13/2014
    Q
    What is the best way to eliminate a termite infestation?
    I've lived in the house for twenty years, and used termite stakes for the last ten years along the back of the house that faces the woods. Today, I found termites swarming in the laundry of the first floor in the FRONT of the house. I don't see any dirt tubes, so I don''t know how they got in. Will Termidor SC with a trench application around the foundation kill the termites in the house? Or do I need to use foam? If I need to use foam, how is it applied?
    A

    Termidor SC is applied in a trench and in drilled holes directly around all sides of the structure. It will take approx. 90 days to kill any active colonies depending on their size. You can apply Termidor Foam in the wall voids in the sheet rock to spot treat activity. Please read the article below for more information on treating termites.

  • Asked by Theresa from Springfield Oregon
    06/03/2014
    Q
    Why is Termidor labeled outdoor use only?
    Label says outdoor use only but you are targeting Ants, Cockroaches.
    A
    The Termidor SC is legally only allow to be used outdoors per the manufacturer and the EPA for the insects listed on its label. It can be used around the outside foundation of the home for ants, spiders and other pests listed on the label and will have a far reach as it transfers through the colony on any that cross that barrier. However it is not safe to be used or label to be used on baseboards inside the home. If you wanted a non-repellant transfer product like the Termidor that is safe for indoor use and will control the ants and cockroaches as well, you would want to use Phantom Termiticide/Insecticide.
