Doug from Psl, Florida writes
I want to soak 30 pieces of pine wood 1/2" X 1 1/2" X 6" in Termidor SC and then place them in the ground around my house. Assuming I will use a 5 gallon bucket, what is the highest Termidor SC and water mixture concentration I can use so that the wood is soaked thoroughly with termiticide and still remain a nonrepellant and undetectable to termites? Is it best to place the wood outside and air dry the pieces after soaking or simply place them into the ground immediately after the soaking treatment?
Termidor SC is not labeled to be used in the manner that you have described and we do not recommend you use it in this manner. Instead we recommend that you read our article How to do a liquid termite barrier treatment so you can understand how the product should be used so that is effective for termite control. If you still want to try to use it to make your own baits you should contact the manufacturer BASF for more information. You can reach BASF by calling 800-526-1072.
