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 Ants

Taurus 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.

Mixing Instructions

For 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. Refer to the "Foam Application" section of this label for specific foam mixing and application instructions.

Except for foam applications made into wall voids, application is limited to an area 1 foot out from and 1 foot up from were the ground meets the foundation. Do not exceed a maximum of 2 applications per year.

Nests found on the ground within 1 foot of the foundation may be treated. Vegetation touching the structure may offer a route for the entry of ants into the structure without coming into contact with the treatment; therefore, remove or prune away any shrubbery, bushes, and tree branches touching the structure

  4. Robert asks Nov 29, 2024

    Can Taurus SC be used with a pressure sprayer for prevention? Would there be any benefit of spraying perimeter of home regularly?

    1. Ken M answers Dec 2, 2024

      No it should not be applied with a pressure sprayer. The labeling is very specific about the width of the spray patern that is allowed on the exterior of the home and Taurus SC can only be used 2 to 4 times per year based on the concentration of the mixture used.

  5. Robert asks Nov 29, 2024

    I have pavers around the house and don’t want to take me them up. Can in I treat the perimeter of the pavers as an option?

    1. Ken M answers Dec 2, 2024

      If you are treating for termites, the pavers must be taken up to treat the soil under them. If you are treating for other general household pests, you can treat the pavers.

  6. Jimmy asks Nov 17, 2024

    I have ordered Taurus sc as I have used it on my yard before & now I see you don’t recommend it for lawns. What do you recommend?

    1. Ken M answers Nov 18, 2024

      It depends on the target pest. If it is ants, take a look at Dominion 2L. It has been effective. For most other pests, I prefer Bifen I/T.

  7. Ken asks Oct 12, 2024

    We have termites that created a hole in the base of a tree. Is Taurus the right solution?

    1. Ken M answers Oct 14, 2024

      No Taurus is not labeled for use on trees. It can only be applied to a structure and the soil within 1 foot of a structure. Take a look at Dominion 2L> It is a fantastic termiticide and labeled for use on trees.

  8. Dan asks Feb 26, 2024

    Will this product kill termites if I just spray up the house from the ground 2 feet and spray the ground one foot out from where the foundation meets the ground?

    1. Ken M answers Feb 27, 2024

      That type of treatment may work for ants but, no, that is not adequate for prevention of termites.

    Quality

    We moved into a house and discovered that ants were everywhere, inside and out. I hired a local exterminator to spray inside and that killed the house loving ants. After he left, I mixed up a 25 gal. tank with 20 oz. of Taurus SC and sprayed about an acre around the outside of the house. They all died. Still no ants after a month. Great stuff.
