    Q
    How does the home owner protect his home from termites?
    A
    Please check out our article Barrier and Soil Treatments. This article gives you a step by step guide to treating and preventing termites. Termidor works so well, because whenn it is applyed in the ground, it actually binds with the soil, providing protection for us up to 10 years.

    Q
    I have an attached deck and cannot get under it to trench along the foundation. How should I handle this?
    A
    The best treatment option for this area is to just pull the boards closest to the house up and trench the dirt and then nail the boards back down. If you are unable to pull the boards up you have two other possible options. You would need to treat this as a concrete area that you will need to drill through just like a garage or driveway that might be in the way of trenching. You can try trenching all the way around the deck but you are still left with the possibility of the termites being able to come up the foundation in the untreated area under the deck. Please see the instructions for drilling holes in concrete in our How To Do A Termite Treatment guide for tips on this application.

  • Asked by Eugene from Houston, Texas
    06/04/2013
    Q
    Do I need to have Termidor applied inside the house with perimeter treatment ?
    Right now I do not have termites, it's all preventive. By inside the house I mean foam around pipes, under the sink, etc.
    A
    Termidor is only labeled to be used inside for spot treatments. You can use Termidor as a preventative outdoors and a generally residual insecticide like talstar for indoor perimeter treatment for all different types of insects.

    Q
    Will Termidor treat moisture ants? How long will it take to get rid of all the ants including the colony?
    We found moisture ants in attic above the garage. I am not sure if there are any more ants behind the dry wall. If I spray the area I could see, will the ants be killed eventually? How long will it take if that's the case? Thanks.
    A
    We do not know what species of ant you are referring to as there is no ant called a "moisture" ant and ALL ants are attracted to moisture and must have it to survive. 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 they are trailing you could try either Termidor Foam to use in the galleries you think they are hiding in as this form of termidor has a broader label in where it can be used; or you can try the Complete Ant Kit and use a bait that they would take back to feed to the colony. You will want to check around your home for where the ants could have come in to either seal off these areas or cut back any bushes and trees that touch the home and use a general barrier spray regularly to keep them away in the future. Talstar would be a great easy to use and safe option for a barrier spray.

    Q
    Unable to dig trench too rocky will spraying area heavily be effective
    A
     Termidor needs to be put into the ground give 10 years of protection. You may want to try drilling to get the Termidor into the ground so that it can bind with the soil. Please read our article Barrier and Soil termite treatment.

    Q
    I have an all brick home and no active termites. do you recommend doing trenching & drilling?
    Used a pest control co. for last 7 years with monitoring stations and yearly inside inspection. I want to do my own pest contol and uncertain if I need to dig & drill?
    A
    If you are able to continue using the stations in the yard they used you can certainly continue to monitor these for activity. If they used the same type we carry on our site, then we can provide you with the necessary replacement parts as needed and guide you on how to check and treat the stations. If you do not have this ability, the best way to protect your home is to do the trench treatment around the foundation of the home and drill where you need to where any concrete touches the home(ie:driveway, garage, patio, etc.). By using Termidor you are protecting your home from any future infestations for the next 10 years. Please review our article on How To Do A Termite Treatment to see what would be involved in a home owner treatment, and feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.

    Q
    I have a horrible thief ant problem. What will kill them? HELP
    I have tried Maxforce FC bait stations, Combat Source Kill bait stations, and Terro, Borax, and Boric Acid mixed with peanut butter (to attract them). I'm tried of wasting money and time on products that don't work. What would be your top suggestion for thief ants? They do (and only ever) prefer proteins. (Sorry if this is a repeat submission, there was an error and I was unsure if the last question was submitted).
    A
    If the ants are not taking the Maxforce bait we would recommend to use advance 375A as it is a protien based bait. You could also instead use Termidor SC. Termidor is a non repellent and thus when the foraging ants come in contact with it they will transfer the active ingredient back to the colony and it will cause a domino killing effect. Termidor is mixed at a rate of .80 fl oz. to one gallon of water in a pump sprayer and sprayed around the outside foundation of the home. For example, you would spray 1 foot up the foundation of your home, and 1 foot out onto the ground.  The treatment will last about 4-6  months, and will then need to be reapplied. Th
