The instructions on the label say 4 gallons per 10 linear feet per foot of depth. What I understand from the formula that my basement being 6 feet below grade, I would nee to put down 4 gallons times 6 feet or 24 gallons per 10 feet, is this correct?
Typically what would be done is that you would have your regular 6 in x 6 in trench with your 4 gallons of Termidor SC solution per 10 linear feet, and then rod down to the grade (but not below) at each footer, or in the case of a continuous basement, about every 12 inches. You also can treat from the inside by drilling in the basement to treat the ground underneath it and any hollow block near the floor there.
