More Instructions | How Taurus works for Termites:Termite treating the outer perimeter of a structure is basically a matter of treating all of the soil next to the structure. This is usually fairly easy to do. Simply dig a small trench against the foundation of the home.6 inches wide and 6 inches deep is the recommended size.Then apply your termiticide into the trench at the rate of 4 gallons of diluted chemical per 10 linear feet. With most homes this easy job becomes a bit more complicated when you have concrete slabs that meet the building. The most common are garages, porches, and patios.Since the soil next to the foundation is covered by the concrete, you must drill through the concrete in order to access and treat the soil. The drill holes should be no farther apart than 12 inches and should be within 6 inches of the foundation. We prefer to use 1/2 inch diameter holes because they are small enough to drill fairly easily, yet large enough to allow the chemical to pass through quickly. The use of a rotary hammer drill is highly recommended. If you don't have a suitable drill you can rent one at most large home improvement stores. Even though the slabs you will drill through are rarely deeper than 6 inches, I can tell you from experience that an 18 inch long bit will keep you from bending over as much and will reduce the strain on your back. How Taurus SC works for AntsTaurus SC is an excellent insecticide for ant control. Mix 0.8 oz of Taurus per gallon of water in a pump sprayer . Then spray around the house 18 inches up the side of your house and one foot out from the house setting up a perimeter. You may also spray 18 inches in width around doors, windows, vents, pipes, foundation cracks, drilled holes or around any exterior openings where listed pests could enter the structure. Make sure to remove vegetation that may be touching the house so the ants and other pests won't be able to bypass the treatment. .Other areas of spray would be more entry points such as : doors (don't spray near door handles), windows, pipes, cracks, vents, holes, etc. Make sure to treat the joint where exterior siding (wood, vinyl, aluminum or other similar materials) meets the cement, brick or block foundation. Treat anywhere electrical, cable or telephone wires enter the house. Apply Taurus SC only twice a year according to label instructions. Spring and Fall times would be ideal application times.  Permiter Pest Treatment with Taurus SC:Use TAURUS SC to kill and to provide residual control of the following pests: Mixing InstructionsFor perimeter pest treatments mix a 0.06% spray dilution of TAURUS SC by filling the treatment tank 1/4 to 1/3 full with water, then add 0.8 fluid ounces of TAURUS SC. Apply 0.06% of finished TAURUS SC dilution as a low-pressure spray to the exterior of the structure where listed pests enter, trail around the structure or where they crawl and hide. Also apply around any exterior openings where listed pests could enter the structure such as around doors, windows, vents, pipes, foundation cracks or drilled holes. Make sure to treat the joint where exterior siding (wood, vinyl, aluminum or other similar materials) meets the cement, brick or block foundation. Treat anywhere electrical, cable or telephone wires enter the house. This treatment should be made as a general surface spray, crack and crevice spray, or a wall void application. TAURUS SC may be applied as a foam treatment into wall voids to kill and / or control the above listed pests. Apply 2 quarts of 0.06% finished spray of TAURUS SC per 160 linear feet.
