    Q
    Does Dominion 2L Termiticide Concentrate kill ants, roaches, bed bugs, crickets, aphids?
    A

    Dominion 2L Termiticide Concentrate cannot be used inside so is not labeled for bedbugs nor is it labeled for common crickets.  It can be used as a perimeter spray outside around the foundation for ants and roaches or as a systemic soil drench on plants/trees for aphids.  You can review the product label for the list of insects it controls and application instructions.

    Q
    Can Dominion 2L Termiticide be applied as foliar application for whiteflies on pineapple plants? Is the fruit OK to eat?
    A

    No, Dominion 2L Termiticide is not labeled to be used on pineapple plants.

    For a foliar application, you can use Ferti-lome Triple Action.

    Q
    Is Dominion 2L Termiticide labeled to be used for fleas in the lawn? Is this pet safe for dogs?
    A

    Dominion 2L is not labeled for fleas or ticks. For flea and tick infestations consider using our Outdoor/indoor flea kit which contains the insecticide Onslaught and the Insect Growth Regulator Martins IGR. The combination of a good long-lasting insecticide and an insect growth regulator is needed to eliminate flea and tick infestation.

    Please review our How to Get Rid of Fleas Guide and Treatment Video for more information.

    Q
    What is the application rate for soil drenching with Dominion 2L Termiticide on a Live Oak Tree that measures 187" in diameter?
    A

    Dominion 2L Termiticide is applied at 0.1 to 0.2 fl oz per inch of trunk diameter for trees at the base of the tree inside the drip line. For a tree measuring 187” in diameter, the rate of Dominion 2L needed would would come to 18.7 to 37.4 fl oz for soil drenching. The minimum amount of water recommended for trees is 16 oz of water per inch of trunk diameter but can use more if needed. Based on the product label recommendation of 16 oz of water per inch of trunk diameter for trees, a minimum of 23 gallons of water would be needed. Keep in mind, water simply acts as a carrier and it is important that even distribution of the product is achieved. 

    After the soil drench has been applied you should water it in with at east 1/2 inch of water. Before applying drenches, it is important to remove or pull back any mulch or dead leaves so the insecticide solution is poured directly on the mineral soil. It is also important to keep the soil around the tree or shrub moist for the next 7-10 days after applications to encourage uptake.

    Please review the product label for more information.

    Q
    Will Dominion 2L kill earthworms (night crawlers)?
    A

    Night crawlers is in the same family of earthwroms which are known to be mostly beneficial creatures. There is not a product on the market labeled for earthworms (night crawlers) Since Dominion 2L Termiticide has not been tested on Night Crawlers, we cannot say that they would help in eradicating them. 

    We would suggest contacting your local Cooperative Extension Office for treatment options to help with night crawlers in the lawn.

    Q
    Termidor SC and Dominion 2L cannot be used in Louisiana for post construction barrier treatments, what can be used in Louisiana for trench treatments for termites?
    A

    Due to the high water table and potential for regular flooding in the state of Louisiana, most of the soil termiticides such as Dominion 2L are not for use in the soil in that state. This means only unique and safer formulations that wont get into the water are allowed, or bait stations in instances where liquids are not the preferred option. The two main termiticides that are not restricted to soil use in Louisana are Altriset and Phantom. Altriset is what most customers use due to its newer formulation and safety for the environment, along with its great termite control abilities. If you feel trenching is not going to be what you would like to do,  we do carry Termite Bait Stations as a great alternative home protection option. The guide linked here is extremely helpful and goes through step by step instructions as well as "How to" videos for both treating with a liquid termiticide as well as installing bait stations.

    Q
    Is Dominion 2L Termiticide effective for grub worm treatments?
    I believe Armadillos are after possible grubs in my lawn and want to kill the food source to deter the Armadillos.
    A

    Live Trapping and eliminating the food source are both good methods to eradicating Armadillos and other turf insect predators from your lawn. Dominion 2L Termiticide Concentrate is labeled for grubs but more for preventative treatments. For best results, soil applications should be done in mid June to mid July prior to grub egg hatch. Depending on your region, grub egg hatch is typically from late July throught late August. 
    For actively feeding grubs, Dylox 6.2 Granules is recommended for immediate grub control within 24 hours of the application being watered in. Mature Grubs may require a second application. 

    Please review our article on How to Get Rid of Grubs for more information.

    Q
    What about limits on trench and drench around foundation using Dominion 2L?
    Around my house there are a few areas that are challenging to trench around 6 inches wide and deep along the perimeter. When using Dominion 2L, what are the concerns if there was no trench, but the 4 gallons per 10 feet were poured along the base slowly enough to allow soaking along the base with minimal runoff from the base of the foundation?
    A

    Simply pouring a termiticide such as Dominion 2L around the foundation will not provide ample protection from termites. There is no guarantee how deep the product will absorb into the ground, and you need a termiticide at least 6 inches deep for termite protection. Another option would be to create holes using a rod or dowel that is at least 6-12 inches deep every 12 - 18 inches, then you would still be appling 4 gallons of solution per 10 feet by pouring the product evenly into each hole.

    Otherwise, bait stations such as the Advance Termite Bait Stations are placed 2-4 feet out from the structure, outside the dripline of the roof.

    Q
    How often should I apply Dominion 2L Termiticide to infected crotons?
    A

    Dominion 2L is often used as soil drench application to the base/root zone of shrubs/trees to help with insects that do damage to the plant throughout the season such as whiteflies, aphids, borers, etc. and you would only need to do a single application to the roots of the plant per year.

    Q
    Can Dominion 2L Termiticide be used to spray support blocks to a firewood shed as well as the shed itself and the ground under and surrounding the shed?
    I just built a four firewood sheds that will hold 5 cords of firewood. Each sit on concrete bricks about 3" off the ground. Can I spray Dominion 2L 1) the concrete slabs, 2) the firewood shed itself (about 1 foot above the slab and 3) spray on the ground around and under the shed? Other options you can suggest?
    A

    Yes, Dominion 2L Termiticide can be used around the surrounding area and on outside of the sheds themselves. Apply at 0.3 to 0.6 fl oz per gallon of water.

    Additional recommendations termites and carpenter ants in the soil to provide a longer lasting residual in the soil would be the Trench Method and/or Soil Treatment where there is direct wood to soil contact.

    Trench treatment: Measure the linear footage around outside of foundation walls, around piers, interior supports in contact with the soil, plumbing, and utility services. Dig a 6 in x 6 in trench directly  against supports/slabs/walls that touch the soil and pour 4 gallons of mixed solution (0.6 fl oz per gallon of water) ever 10 linear feet into the trench. The trench method with Dominion lasts 3-5 years in the soil.

    Wood to Soil Treatment:  For protection of firewood or other wood products stored in contact with soil from carpenter ants and termites, treat soil prior to stacking with a 0.05 to 0.1% solution at 1 gallon per 10 square feet to prevent infestation. Do not spray firewood directly.
