Have been searching the questions and haven't found any questions about using Tempo for killing termites. I want to treat the foundation to kill termites showing up in an older house with a crawl space.
We can tell you that for termites we almost always recommend Termidor SC. Termidor has a different active ingredient than Tempo SC Ultra and this active ingredient allows the ants or termites to pick the product up on their bodies and move it back to the nest and spread it to the other insects. Tempo on the other hand will only kill the insects that come into direct contact with treated surfaces. Also Termidor will last about twice as long as Tempo when used as a termite barrier in a trenching treatment. Please let us know if you have more questions about Tempo vs Termidor.
