Almost 3 years ago our property was overwhelmed by Argentine ants. I tried to control these pests using various baits and sprays. Although I was somewhat successful in removing them from the inside, nothing worked for the outside. I only cared about the perimeter of the house and deck. A neighbor advised me to try this product. He had a similar problem and it worked for him. So I tried it and it works! I only used it outside and only around the foundation so I'm sure they are still in the yard away from the house - but that is ok with me.

Was experiencing a lot of issues with new home build. Used this product as a perimeter barrier and after about a week not seeing any ants around the home.

I had a major Carpenter Ant issue with trails of hundreds of Ants all around the House from Dusk to Dawn. I live in a House on a typical Chicago lot size with a large tree in the parkway and a detached Garage in the rear, facing the alley. The main trail seemed to be on the north side of the house and the back of the house on the east side along the concrete walkways, which butts up to the house foundation. I took a leaf blower to clean the perimeter of the House, Garage and areas to be sprayed before I treated the area. I then sprayed the Taurus SC Termiiticide all along the House and Garage as well as around to base of the Tree and the front and rear Lawn perimeters, where the grass meets the concrete walkways, which were also active Carpenter Ant trails. As a good measure, I sprayed both the Front & Rear Stairs/Decks. I sprayed 18 inches high all along the walls of the House/Garage and about 12 inches along the ground/concrete. I also sprayed about 24 inches up from the base of the Tree in the front parkway. I was just finishing up around Dusk and the Ant activity was explosive with the Ants becoming very active and numerous. The next evening I was out sweeping up nearly 50 dead ant carcasses, including 4 winged Carpenter Ants. I did not see any live Ants anywhere. This to me was very encouraging. The next evening I swept up about 20 dead Ant carcasses and again, NO activity with live Ants anywhere around the House. Since the spraying it has been 8 days and not even the presence of one Ant, dead or alive. Encouragingly, ALL visible activity has ceased completely around the House, Garage, Lawn & Tree. I am thoroughly delighted with the Taurus SC Termiiticide and the outstandingly fast-acting results I have received. Very Impressive Indeed! AND...Most beneficially, I saved a load of money doing the job myself. It was as easy as watering your lawn with a hose.

This product worked fabulously along the perimeter of my house to eradicate my ant infestation. I wish I knew about it sooner, after years of wasting $ on the barrier and permethrin ant sprays at the hardware store, which would only get rid of the ants for a week or so until they found another entry point. Only con is that this bottle is way too much for what the typical homeowner needs to spray their perimeter for ants and probably makes 20-30 gallons. I should have bought one of the single serve packets.

I bought this to get rid of ants, I was expecting result 30-90 days. The ants were gone the next day. I hesitated buy this because I saw some bad reviews, but this chemical is legit. It definitely works for ant, and it works immediately. Look for the colonies or locations and path you usually see ants.

Had ant infestation inside house after we first moved in. Sprayed as directed and it was as though the ant immediately knew they were dead. I poisoned a few places within house about a week later, but we have been very pleased. Also, great company service and speed getting this to me amongst country wide slow shipping. Thank you.

Timely delivery of product with helpful online videos explaining best practice applications. Long term effectiveness to be determined but excellent service.

Product mixes very easy and I love the built in measuring reserver. For termites, you will have to trench, but you can save a lot of money doing it yourself and know it is done right for 10 years of protection.

Tawny hairy ants (crazy ants) are prolific on gulf coast lines. The TarusSCTermiticide 78 knocks them in the head. I have been using for several years on golf course buildings and all driveways to prevent them; however it is a constant battle. The colonies are under brush, boards,straw,flora and everything. They do not make a mound. They are attracted to electronics and electricity and can cause a short in power outlets and a possible. Chech what happened atNASA in Houston,Tx.. This is the best product I have have found.

I used this product in a pump up sprayer on ants. The next day I didn't see any ants where I sprayed.

I could see termite tunnels on the foundation of vacant house next door. Applied the chemical as instructed around my house. About a month later the termite tunnels were gone at next door house about 20 feet away from the application site around my house. Also, no more roaches and ants on my back porch. That was about 6-7 years ago, this will be my second application. It's not fast acting but it does the job.

After a fire here in California we were left with a colony of ants for weeks that would not go away. We tried every product known to man but nothing worked; found the Taurus products on-line and thought we would give it a try. The ants disappeared so quickly it was amazing, and fast delivery. Thank you for a Wonderful products..

I have now ordered twice from DoMyOwn and will continue to use them. Ordering was easy, they kept me informed, and I received the products within a few days. Also, their videos for applying the fipronil and bifenthrin for termite control were very helpful.

We purchased on line and received the product in a timely fashion. The instructions in coordination with the youtube site were easy to follow. Hopefully the nasty little termites will have read the instructions and carry it back to the queen.

Product arrived in good shape and on time. So far, it has controlled ants which is why I bought it. Mixes well with water and sprays like other water based products. Will have better opinion after a few months.

since it is only a 6" trench around the house, it is easy and quick. I will use it again on my other rent houses. Vivian

Was recommended for sugar ants and fire ants. Grandmother has sugar ants really bad. Or should I say had. Once sprayed, no more sugar ants. Fire ants don't stand a chance with this product. Spray directly into mound in early hours of the morning and they are gone.

Taurus is effective in controlling the Carpenter ants at our house in the woods. The container currently in use poses a serious safety concern. The old containers would only allow the measured amount of product to be poured into a sprayer. When I poured the measured amount into my sprayer I tilted the container too high and a third of the container volume poured into my sprayer. Dealing with this is dangerous, and there is a threat of contamination to the surroundings.

We've had an ongoing problem with small ants even though we have a home pest service. The Taurus Termiticide was easy to apply, but follow the safety instructions, and so far has been very effective.

Taurus SC is a bomb in a bottle. Ive messed around with Raid Bait Stations for years trying to get a handle on an invasion of odoriferous ants, the little bastards that stink the place up if you disturb their business in any way. The Bait Stations never did do much, even tho they can decrease the ant action somewhat for maybe days or weeks. So I decided to go nuclear and ordered a bottle of Taurus on line. Neither Lowes or the Depot carry this stuff, probably because of the scary label on the bottle. You do not want to make a mistake with this stuff lest you end up in the emergency room, on with the poison hot line or worse. To demonstrate the potency of Taurus, you use 3/10s of one ounce with a gallon of water. Long story short I suited up with a makeshift Hazmat suit and started spraying. It took about an hour to go all the way around the house using 1 gallon of water. The next day we noticed the ant invasion was scaled way back, with only the pioneer types still in operation. The 2nd day all ants were gone. We could scarcely believe it. My only complaint would be the size of the bottle I was required to buy, 20 ounces for $40. California laws prohibit application more than twice a year. This means I have enuf Taurus for 33 years. But otherwise, this is a great product.
