You should only use the Termidor Foam to directly spot treat active infestations of termites inside. If they are in the wood in the wall on the second story then yes you would use it there.
We do recommend that you spot treat the area you have seen with the activity using Termidor FOAM. We also recommend that you treat around the outside perimeter of the foundation with Termidor SC. Please refer to our Termite Guide for helpful tips and application videos.
Yes, Termidor FOAM is a water-based foam, however it is considered a dry foam, meaning it has a very small water content and will not be absorbed into wood studding or insulation.
If you have termites, you should drill holes into the galleries and inject Termidor Foam to directly eliminate the colony. You will only be injecting the foam into the studs and around where the activity is, not filling the entire wall void. Please see the video for direct nest treatment in our Termite Treatment Guide.
Yes, Termidor FOAM can be applied into the wood. If possible, we also recommend to trench around the porch and apply Termidor SC.
Termidor Foam, just like the liquid Termidor SC, is a non repellent formulation. This means that when spot treating in voids where you believe there is activity, the termites will not detect the product and it will not cause them to move. If you are doing a soil treatment as well this will take care of the colony as well and will transfer to the ones within the home.
Termidor FOAM could be used to spot treat the active infestation in the wood or you could just remove and replace depending on the level of infestation. It can take up to 90 days to completely kill a colony depending on the termite type and size of the colony.
Termidor FOAM will last for about 6 weeks after application. It is really meant more for spot applications in wall voids indoors. If you trenched outdoors with Termidor SC, this will eliminate the entire colony within 90 days.
Yes, Termidor FOAM should have a shelf life of about 1-2 years.
Termidor Foam would definitely be a great choice for Termite treatment inside a home. You can use it to foam inside wall voids or treat directly into a tunnel. If you are dealing with heavy activity, you may need to contact a professional to do a tent treatment.
