This is one of the few products to exceed my expectations.
About 9 months ago I started seeing the telltale signs of termite infestation...termite poop. The tiny little brown pellets started showing up near a wall but I couldn't see where they were coming from. A few months later, they started showing up closer to the middle of the room. That's when I realized they were coming from a raised ceiling exposed beam. I spent hours on line researching the most effective way to kill the pests including; tenting, Orange oil, and different chemicals. The best option at this time was chemicals due to cost, ease and effectiveness. Terimidor Foam appeared to be the best, most effective chemical. I did not test any other chemicals or techniques because I didn't need to. Termidor worked! Application: 1. I placed a plastic tarp on the floor wherever I expected to apply the foam. 2. I drilled a 1/8" thick hole approximately 3" deep into the wood at every hole that the termites expelled their poop pellets 3. I inserted the tip on the application tube into the 1/8" hole and held it firmly in the hole. 4. I pressed the button on the can. The Foam flowed into the wood at each place. In fact, it flowed at least 6" away from where I inserted it. I know because I was shocked when it was forced out the side of the beam where the termites ate the wood close to the edge of the beam! After seeing that, I realized the infestation was worse than anticipated. By the time I finished, I only used about 1/3 of the can. It goes a long way. It's been several months with NO new termite droppings. Oh, and I have a sensitive nose... there is NO odor!
