Nina from Burbank writes

Dry wood termites are IN my bamboo flooring and are making small holes (1.5-2mm in diameter).

Will the applicator tip fit into these small holes or should I use the liquid Termidor and inject it with a syringe? Thank you

Answer:

The tip of the Termidor Dry is only about 1/8 of an inch in size and the hole the product comes out of on the tip is even smaller. However, no matter how small the tip is you must drill into the holes to ensure the product penetrates into the galleries for full treatment reach. Large holes are not necessary but using a small drill bit for a pilot hole would be needed. Termidor SC would not be the product you would use in this situation at all. You would either treat the galleries with Termidor Dry or Termidor foam, or you would need to sand the floors down to their raw natural wood state, apply Boracare at a 1:1 ratio, and then re-stain or seal the floors.
