Found four working tubes connecting the ground to the base of my exterior walls today, tubes were running up the cement foundation. I was applying my last remaining stash of Cyper WP when I noticed them. I have never noticed them before. The tubes were relatively small in size, and when I opened them, I did not notice any live insects. Still, this is my first experience with termites, and I am not sure where to go from here.
I soaked the ground pretty good with the Cyper along the wall where I saw the tubes. Unfortunately I am going out of town, but when I get back I will inspect again to see if they have been rebuilt. Most likely it will rain while I am gone, and I'm sure I will have to re-apply poison upon my return (I probably have enough Cyper left for one more treatment, I use it as a general insecticide but assume it will work on termites). What else should I be looking for, should I be immediately concerned, and what other steps are necessary at this point? Thanks. |
