how much Tremidor for DIYer termite extermination, etc..
 
I'm trying to calculate how much Tremidor chemical (concentrate) I
need to buy inorder to properly treat my home myself. Since I didn't
purchase the chemical yet, I can't read it's instructions which might
answer this post.

My home is in southeast Texas. For this chemical, do I just dig a
trench around the house and pour the diluted chemical into the trench?
And what size trench do I need? Is the amount of chemical needed
based on just the volume of the trench or am I forgetting something?
Any recommended web site to buy the stuff?

You are not supposed to be able to but...

First take the product training online
http://www.pestcontrolfacts.com/ProductTraining/

then buy it from a vendor
http://www.epestsupply.com/cgi-bin/s...BASFTERMIDOR20

While you are supposed to be a pest control professional, it looks like you
can self certify online anyway (I did not go through all the steps or take
the training to see how it turns out)

The proper application is to trench and then rod the product to the
desired depth. The amount of product you will need depends on the
concentration and the depth needed to treat. At a strength .06% , one 20
oz bottle makes 25 gallons, is applied at 4 gal per 10 lin feet/foot
depth. .125% is 2 gal per 10 lin feet per foot depth, 40 oz concentrate
for 25 gallons. If the top of the footers are 28 inches in the ground
you would need to apply 12 gallon of .06% per 10 linear feet or 6
gallons per 10 lin feet at a rate of .125% for proper treatment and
realize the areas inside the home that are at risk will still be there.
