There are termite mud tubes on the baseboard of our laundry room. I applied 3 cans of Premise foam though drilled holes to the drywalls and stubs. It has been a week, but I still see termite activities in the mud tubes. I plan to replace the baseboard and the quarter round. Should I apply more Premise foam or just wait?
It sounds like you may be dealing with subterranean termites. If this is the case, you will most likely not be able to eliminate the population with just a foam in the walls as they are coming from the soil under and outside your home. Even if you could eliminate the entire population with the Premise Foam. It normally takes a full 90 days to see an entire colony destroyed and no more signs of activity. We highly recommend you look over our article and videos on "How To Do A Termite Treatment" to see how you should accurately be eliminating the termites and properly protecting your home from any future infestations. The method described in that article is going to save you time and money in the long run. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
