Customer Reviews for Dominion 2L Termiticide

I don't know why the wood adjacent to my bath tub wet-wall was moist? I found no leaks and the plumbing vent to the roof was well sealed. Condensation? The bath drainpipe and water inlets come up through a hole in the slab. The subterranean termite varmints tunneled 10' or 40' under the house slab and surfaced at this point of exposed earth attracted by the moist wood. They swarmed the first warm days in Spring. I treated the exposed earthen area with the Dominion 2L termiticide and then filled it in with sand which is known to obstruct termites. I treated the slab, wood framing, floor and molding with a 2:1 water to Bora-Care mixture. I sprayed Bora-Care down from the attic and drilled holes in the walls where there was no other access. I finished by treating the ground around the house with Dominion 2L. This is my first experience with a termite infestation and my problem appears to have been solved for under $170. I Thank DoMyOwnPestControl.com for providing professional products at fair prices.

I used this material to treat a very large tree in my yard that was being attacked by termites and large black ants. I previously used products from Home Depot; a complete waste of money. Within one day, I could not find any activity.

I found the process not that difficult.  I used a short pickax to dig the trench, and needed 2 containers of Dominion. I found the tech support from the website to be great, but still have to wait a while to see if all termite activity ceases.  So far so good, no new mud tubes, and its been 3 weeks since the application.

I trenched around my house (using a small pickax) and applied Dominion 2L as directed by the very helpful staff at DoMyOwnPestControl.com. It's a month and a half later, we replaced a threshold that was eaten up, and there doesn't appear to be any signs of termites.  This wasn't easy, but it saved a bundle. Also the carpenter ant gel sold on this site is very effective. Thanks again!!

Great product at a great price. I had my previous house professionally treated with Termidor at a cost of over a $1000 dollars. Did a similar treatment at my new, slightly larger, home myself with Dominion 2L at a cost of about $90 dollars. I expended a bit of sweat doing the trenching and back-fill, but was definitely worth the savings. Everything I've seen indicates that Dominion 2L (Imidacloprid) works similarly to Termidor. Works slightly faster than Termidor to kill the affected insect. This is good, but it does slightly decrease the likelihood of spreading the pesticide in the colony. Otherwise has a similar span between retreatment times (7 years as compared to 10 years for Termidor). Received my order very quickly, only 2 days after ordering.

The best product at the best price I have used for aphid control on trees and bushes. I use as soil drench (systemic) whenever possible; works great as a contact/spray also. DoMyOwnPestControl has the best prices on this excellent product. Active ingredient: Imidacloprid @ 21.4% - about 15X the strength of typical store products.

Previously used Merit for 10 ash trees at a total cost of $500 per year. Thanks to advice from DoMyOwnPestContol, I was able to treat my trees with Dominion for a total of $90. Dominion was much easier to use as it is in a liquid form vs the dry Merit. Only time will tell if all the treatments the past 3 years have been effective. But so far there is no sign of infestation and we live in an area that has infestation of the EAB near by.

After searching the Internet and finding out that the treated ground your house is build on only lasts for 15 years. I bought Dominion 2L instead of paying a pest control company. I was able to apply the product myself around my foundation with a shovel and 5 gal paint bucket, says it's good for seven years, so I guess you won't hear from me for 7 years. Thanks, Julia

For about the past 5 years i have been losing my fight against carpenter ants. Nothing available in the mega hardware stores or local garden centers seems to work. I have always been able to find ants pretty much everywhere. I was pretty much resigned to call a professional exterminator when i thought to search the internet and found you. after a single application of Dominion on the exterior of my house, a full week later and i cannot locate a single carpenter. I have probably spent $300-500 dollars in the past few years on stuff that didnt work at all so this is one of the BEST purchases i have ever made. THANK YOU for being there! DoMyOwnPestControl has made one of the major annoyances in my life go away. I WILL be back and i will be recommending you to my family and friends.

I have a shed on remote property in the mountains which I visit every two months or so. On one visit, the shed, built on a wooden platform, was infested with ants. From research on the internet I determined by their behavior that they were carpenter ants. Insecticides from home improvement stores killed the ones I could see, but later, millions more attended the funeral service. A good band treatment in a 2 foot (or so) wide band from a 2 gallon plastic watering can around the shed with Dominion 2L and no more ants in the shed. I've since treated around some of the pinion pine trees where they still frequent. I'll find out on my next trip in October '11 if it did as well there. When you mix the concentrate, be sure to wear rubber gloves as it can be absorbed through your skin if it splashes on you. The concentrate, which resembles whipping cream, requires very thorough mixing or you'll end up with concentrated product pouring on the ground when you get down to the last few ounces.

Bought this stuff twice now to control Ash borers as well as pine borers. I mix it with some powered fertilizer in a 5 gal. bucket to drench the tree trunck. Almost cut down two of my Austrian pines last year but decided to give this a try rather than use the stuff made by the same company that makes aspirin. This year, the tree has become green again and is growing again. Can see where borers "try" to get a foothold, but then find them dead all around the tree. My ash trees are the envy of the neighborhood and have never looked better while several neighbors have had theirs cut down. Everyone now asks what I use to keep them so beautiful, I just show them the bottle and watch their reaction when they compare it to their brand (the aspirin maker). 0.1% of active ingredient for that brand vs. almost 26% for this stuff. No contest. Also great for use around perimeter of the house as it appears to kill almost any type of pest. No ants, termites, millipeds, nothing! May seem expensive, but it's truly worth every penny and actually much cheaper than that other brand when you consider the mix rate. I highly recommend this product.

Arrived quickly.  Advice from Domyownpestcontrol.com made this easy to pick to solve my termite issue. This material is easy to use, mixed it in a 5 gallon bucket and treated the house in about 1 hour. Would recommend to others. I'm sure I've saved a bundle

I have used this for several years on my ash trees in northern Ohio. The untreated ash trees in the subdivision have all succumbed to the emerald ash borer. My trees continue to be healthy.

I used it for Whiteflies, neighbors on both sides of me and behind have had their Coconut Palms, Christmas Palms, and Hedges destroyed by the Whiteflies. All my Christmas Palms which butt up against some of them are like Roses between the thorns. Thanks to Dominon2L used as a drench.

I've had years of problems with late summer leaf loss due to a leaf miner on my willows. Many attempts to control it with various sprays were not successful. I noticed some improvement late summer 2008 after the first application of Dominion that spring. The second application in spring 2009 resulted in about 90% improvement by late summer. 2010 will be my third application. One 23 oz. bottle treated my 12 trees. Application is easy - dilute with water per label and pour on the soil around the tree at the drip line one time per year in the spring.

I started treating our tree as soon as I heard about the emerald ash borer. We now have seven infected and dying ash trees on our property, but, the tree I've been treating with Dominion 2L is green, healthy and pretty.

Using this to control white grub larvae. Treat your lawn with this at proper time and it is a very economical way to control grubs and mole cricket hatchlings

I purchased Dominion 2L as a cheap alternative to fipronil containing chemicals. My primary use of this product is for carpenter ant control. I have made just one application to the perimeter and eaves of my home. I believe that the ant problem has been mitigated thus far, and with just one treatment. I also used Dominion for flea and tick control for pet areas since it is the same ingredient in Advantix II.

Fast service. Much more reasonable buying from DMOPC than from the local nursery. Not looking for instant results just trying to protect my trees (120) from EAB and Japanese Beetles.

I haven't used the product yet, but order fulfilment and shipping was very prompt in addition to their response to a remark I left praising their website on my order. A company I will do business with again, that's for sure!

Excellent product, natural product made from nicotine/tobacco. I use it in my potted plants to kill gnat larva in soil and as a systemic for scale and foliar feeding insects. Stays active for long periods.

I use this to attend to webworms in the trees. Just spray on the ground and wait for the rain, if none in 2 days, then start watering. I have found that absorption is better when it has been dry and then apply it and water well, very well. The worms just stop worming. Put it out just as the trees leaf out in the spring and no infestation will occur, the worms are there but never get going before they die. Do it again mid season and maybe once in the fall. I also found that if I spray my other plants and bushes the bug problems there also go away, helps keep the mosquitos at bay too.

The Dominion 2L was easy to mix and apply. Clean up was a breeze as well. The online application video is very easy to follow. The customer service folks were great with any questions that I had.

For the past year, I have been using the 2L as a systemic and foliar treatment for my large live oak trees for a serious infestation of mealy bugs. So far, it appears to be working. I still see some mealy bugs, but not nearly as many as before I began the treatment. I have also used it to treat flower beds and other plants with good results. I have just ordered another 2 gallons.

This is thermo-nuclear against "white fly" pests we have here in SW Florida. I use just a little bitty bit in the bottom of a 5 Gallon pail, fill entire pail with water, then drench the soil around the Ficus hedge that the white fly feed on. NO MORE WHITE FLY.

A virulent white fly mutation has invaded Southeast Florida. It eats tree leaves, and destroys foliage in a matter of days. None of the current market products work, (Bayer's included) until I found Dominion 2L. It came from Pestmall at one fourth of the price at the local pest control store. Worked great, longer than the six months advertised, and in the 8th month, I am respraying. Saved my fruit trees - Thank
