works as promised
By Lee on 03/18/2013
We had a pretty big ant problem, Argentinian & Big Head ants. This really worked and got the ants under control. Great product and even eliminated all the other "pests" that were occasionally seen in the home. Recommend highly.

Nice n' generic just like I like it!
By Brandon on 04/09/2017
So far did 14 ft of 260. Watched a few YT videos before starting. One YouTuber mentioned not only following the instructions with trenching and filling 10 ft with 4 gallons of solution, but he stated he contacted the company for extra pro tips. The company mentioned pouring a 1/2 concentrated solution over the back fill as opposed to spraying the dirt with a pump sprayer. Liked it and copied the recommendation. I figure better safe than sorry, and I would rather pay a little more in the beginning than a lot more if I get attacked. I think the easiest part of the job is going to be the concrete holes. I just wish I had a high pressure pump to DIY the job. Not sure what a pest control company would charge if all the holes were ready to go, and they just come in and pump in the fipronil. I am unsure, so far, how I am going to tackle the sloped foundation, but most likely will do it in small sections. One of the reasons for the DIY project is because I really would like this done right and not some quick slap job as I fear it could be, and running me thousands of dollars for it. Well that is my take on it. Hopefully the toxic moat that I laid down will prevent any infestations for the next 10 years. We shall see.

ANTS ALL GONE
By Chris on 08/17/2015
Verified Purchase
Two or three different types of ants had suddenly invaded my kitchen and bathroom, so I ordered this based on everyone's reviews, for which I thank you all. I sprayed this solution as suggested around the entire perimeter of my house. I only used 2 gallons of mixture to do the entire job, so I have plenty left. I did not spray anywhere inside my house. Haven't seen a single ant since the day after I sprayed, and it's been two weeks.

By Tony on 05/10/2016
Product is as advertised and was delivered quickly. The manufacturers instructions are a little confusing for application based on pre or post construction, foundation type, ect. Instructions are for a ten foot trench but make sure to create little earth dams every few feet so all the product doesn't flow one end.

Florida Ant Control
By David on 01/04/2017
I use Taurus SC Termicide at the base of the house along with Bifen granules in a 10 foot spread around the foundation into the shrubs and lawn. Applied every 4 months and within 6 months or so, all signs of ants in the house were gone.

Packaging
By Dan on 03/25/2022
The product worked great. But the 2 bottles I ordered were placed in one box, with no other packaging. I received a box covered in pesticide. With the nature of these chemicals, I would assume better packaging is required. But, the product works great.

Good start
By Sr on 11/06/2020
I have recently purchased a house and fumigated it as part of the process but I found sub-terrain, dry wood termites in the parts that are not part of the tent. While doing research I found this product. I used it, I have noticed termites getting killed. It might take a while for me to understand how effective it is over a period of time. Based on my first impression it is working as expected.

Taurus SC Termiticide
By Pete on 06/14/2019
Have dry wood termites in a wood tie landscape wall last month ( May ) they were swarming from the seams in the wall. I went on the DoMyOwn website and reviewed the instructional video and it looked like a relatively simple project so I ordered it. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly it arrived. As soon as it arrived I dug the trench and followed the application instructions ( of course the termite swarming had stopped by then ) easy job. I would have given 5 stars but I really won't know how good it has worked until some time goes by but so far all is well. Thanks

Good value with useless measuring mark
By Woo on 03/12/2022
My project is about 300-350 linear footage, so I bought one 20 oz plus another 78 oz. The order and delivery process of both items were smooth. I used up the small bottle and about 50% of the large so far. It's not possible to comment on the effectiveness of the product at this momont. The 0.8 oz measuring mark on small 20 oz bottole is very user freiendly. You just need to tight both lids and tilt the bottle to fill that funnel shape cavity and put the bottle leveled on table top, it will give you a accurate 0.8 oz, then unscrew the side lid to pure out to bucket. You just need to do it once for 1 Gal sprayer or 4 times for 4G to treat 10 linear feet. However, the same 0.8 oz mark on bigger 78 oz bottle is basically useless. It's very hard or almost impossible to fill to that mark practically. So, I was eventually transferring about 20 oz product from big to the small bottle to enable me to use that measuring cup. I would suggest the manufacturer to add another measuring mark on bigger 78 oz bottle which indicate how much it will be if you fill the whole funnel cavity. I guess it could be 3.2 oz, which wil be perfect for a 4G finished liquid.

Best Termite Spray
By J. on 09/03/2022
I think this really works, i had an investigation of termites and i sprayed this an with in two days, i never saw another one. Although it rains a lot around here so they came back about a year later. Sprayed those an now all clear. Fast working, unsmellable by termites So they take poison back to colony ask kill the whole thing. Really works great.

terminator Taurus SC
By Charles on 05/09/2016
very easy to use, instructions clear enough. It's only been about a month since I've applied it, no signs of termites or ants so far and I was extremely infested before. I'm still keeping an eye out, kind of early to really say other than so far so good for now. either way it's worth a try rather than pay hundreds and hundreds for a "professional" to do the same thing I did in about an hour or 2. Only gave 4 stars because of the time so far.

Fast service
By Larry on 01/05/2021
Product was received promptly and the video made the application easy. The instruction sheets fail to give a ratio for mixing the product. It talks of a 6 or 12 percent solution which for a do it yourself person, you have to get the calculator out and hope you got it right. The video says the 78 oz bottle will treat over 200 lineal feet but to wipe out an infestation, it's more like 80 to 90 feet

So Easy
By James on 10/23/2020
Just mix it pour it and you're done. The most difficult part of course is the digging of the trench but after that its much easier than many of the other products i looked at for this project. Good people and good products at good prices. I'll come back to domyown for any similar projects i face.

I'm using this to hopefully combat insects in general since I have heard this is the best besides the brand name, Termidor SC. I hope to see less during the summer and the upcoming year with this treatment and a secondary in six months. My plan is to use Suspend SC in my basement/crawlspace to ensure attack from both sides of the brick foundation and keep out all unwanted pests. I hope to see good results!

Its a good product but terrible directions for mixing
By Orlando on 04/05/2020
This product works well, but the directions for mixing were confusing to me. I had to contact the manufacturer for proper mixing directions. The directions are also printed very small and may require a magnifying glass to view for some. i found a few good videos on youtube on the usage of this product.

All critters belong outside or death if in my house
By Rita on 04/23/2020
I'm happy this product interferes with ability for eggs to reach proper maturity. I'm currently using it ( 3 months) to eradicate “super lice”. Unfortunately I'm still in progress however with great reductions in populations of the nasty pests. What is most disturbing is that I'm seeing what appears to be possibly a mutation in process of tolerance to the poison. I hope not. That being said I am adding Malathion in combination to my routine in hopes of speeding up actual eradication. If anyone could offer me a better way to succeed I welcome the advice.
