I have been plagued by ants for many years. I have tried using those plastic baits, house fumigation, insect sprays and even stepping on them one at a time, but, they keep coming back, in greater numbers, not to mention they keep finding new places to set up housekeeping. Then my daughter bought a 100 year old house, and was having trouble with an infestation of Box Elder Bugs. She uses an exterminator regularly on her rental properties. They sprayed around te foundation of her house, and around the doors, windows and eaves of her house. within a couple of days, her Box Elder problem was no more. She gave me the name of the product they used, it is Termidor, which is normally used for termites, but also eliminates most of the common household pests,like spiders, earwigs, ants and others. I bought a 20 oz. concentrated solution of this product, which makes 24 gallons of spray solution. I sprayed around my foundation, doors, windows, and anywhere else that looked like an entry point. I even sprayed around my outdoor gazebo, and storage shed. Within 3 days, all I could see was an occasional dead bug. For the first time in years, I don't have that "crawley" feeling. Just follow the instructions on the container. It almost seems too easy, no odor, no bugs! I cannot believe the results this product has given. A very satisfied customer.Read full review

I have been at battle with the yellowjackets at my densely wooded, remote mountain home since purchasing ten years ago. We have seen episodes in the last 5 years in the area where they are so bad it's dangerous to go outside the ground literally appeared to be moving with the countless and very aggresive pests as far as the eye can see. Trapping and directly killing them with spray is fruitless with the sheer numbers so I have tried baiting them with several of the other micro-encapsulated insecticides such as onslaught and bifen mixing about a tablespoon into a can of pate cat food which had noticable results but would only buy a day or so of partial relief before the numbers recovered so it seemed that killed the ones eating it but were not killing the hives or queens as I had hoped. A review of the Taurus SC I came across read much like the above and I am beyond happy to finish this review up as his did reporting I finally can enjoy my outside environment completely free of them it worked 100% on a situation so bad I was ready to sell my home and simply move elsewhere. A bait station is easily made from an aluminum can with a few 1/2 holes so only the yellowjackets can get in and hung from a tree branch or placed out of reach of pets etc. The investment has already paid for itself many times over with just this first try which took 3 times on 3 consecutive days during the peak of the season barely making a dent in the bottle which looks now to be quite a few years maybe a decade's supply if it doesn't degrade over time.Read full review

Was having trouble with small black ants. Did a Google search and this stuff was recommended and was reasonably priced. Mixed the whole bottle wit 20 gallons of water inside a 30 gallon agricultural yard sprayer then sprayed/saturated the inside and outside foundation walls plus all of the pillars under the house. Did that about three weeks ago and haven't seen an ant since. As long as you have a sprayer that can do the job this is a cost effective way to control ants. I would recommend this product as opposed to having an exterminator do the job as they are very expensive in my opinion. Will be using this product again if/when the ants will return and I'm sure they will regardless of what product is used to deter them.

Taurus may be the generic form of Termidor. Termidor rocked the pest control world by eliminating termites and was then allowed to be used on ants. Now it works on any socializing or colonizing pests. That means roaches too. Taurus contains the same active ingredient of fipronil and the same percentage, 9.1%. It’s half the price of Termidor so it’s a no brainer.
