What would be the correct way to treat underneath the shed for termites?
You should treat the entire area before they set the joists and before the granite is put down. This is called a pre-treat. You should apply the product at a rate of 1 gallon per 10 square feet. Some of our customers also use a 5 gallon bucket and pour the 5 gallons over 50 square foot sections which will be much faster than using a hand pump sprayer which comes out slowly. It is very important to apply more around the perimeter edges. Since this is the more likely entry point of termites you want to make sure you treat more heavily around that area.
