[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3155376, member: 15054"] my sister had Terminix yea they killed termites but then ants came in and ate the termites is their story and her outside wall 2x4's got all eaten by nesting ants. they did not pay any on the warranty claim she was going to put on them because they said what they spray does not kill ants. you must pay for a different application for ants. BS. I fixed her swaying wall. it would move 2 feet. brick home!! found this. [URL]https://www.domyown.com/does-permethrin-sfr-get-rid-of-termites-qa-30220.html[/URL] I like permethrin and I like boric acid dusted into all walls that i build. Dust it into the base of the wall before hanging sheetrock. Not many bugs can withstand boric acid doused area. An old guy told me years ago why his house never had termites and all the neighbors homes did. He took a shovel and dug a 1 foot deep 4" wide trench around his house and dumped his used oil in the trench then covered it up. Said it leaches into the soil and no wood eating critters want anything do do with that. Things to think about. [/QUOTE]
