My neighbor just had his house perimeter and garage treated for a

that Termidor was the best chemical to use for a contact type
termiticide. Does anyone out there have an opinion on the subject.

I did Google both but can find no article that compares the two.

Maybe this will help:

Try to keep abreast of this myself. My neighbor had them and
fortunately they killed the colony with a juvenile harmone treatment.
Otherwise I was seeing them in stumps in my yard.
Now they are all gone. If your colony is still around, you may want to
do something yourself.

Thanks .. just what I was looking for. So, his termites are being
repelled. I wonder where they will go next??? Fortunately, I treated
the perimeter of my home with Termidor 1.5 years ago. So far, I have
had no problems.
