We had some swarmers last week in the kitchen, not a whole lot, maybe
~200 or so. Using a repellant spray and vacuuming, they have been
pushed underground. I called in a local exterminator, and he gave an
estimate of $850 for Phantom and $1050 for Termidor (perimeter is
150'), both non-repellant, and made by the same company. However, with
Phantom, he said they have to drill every foot inside the garage walls
(2 walls adjoining the house interior) but with Termidor they don't
have to. I asked him why not, but he gave a hand-waving answer as to
the instructions that come with the product.

Will Termidor work effetively if we just go around the perimeter and
nopt inside the garage? He is going to drill the slab on the stoop,
don't know about the garage front.


Thanks for any suggestions. Can I get a cheaper treatment?
