appropriate safety equipment, Rubber gloves and goggles and long sleeves and long pants or a Tyvek suit.

There are 2 products for refilling the concrete holes after you have completed your termite treatment. Trebor plugs are plastic plugs that fit into the concrete opening, make for easy removal if you have to retreat in 5 years or so. You can also use a small amount of cement or sand mix mixed in a small bowl with water. This works perfectly for patching holes drilled in cement etc. Most local hardware stores sell concrete patch. BoraCare and Tim-bor by Nissus corp are both sodium borate treatments that are odorless, natural and will kill termites and will last the life of the wood. No other treatments to that wood will be necessary; this will also be effective on any wood destroying insects, such as beetles, and carpenter ants. BoraCare is a wood preservative and can be used on wood that is unpainted or unvarnished.

For Spot treating termite activity with a termiticide I recommend Termidor, and Premise.

Bait the termite colony with a baiting system.

I also recommend that after you have controlled your termite problem with a spot treatment you should install termite monitors. Advance termite system is the top system used by professional pest control companies. Installing a termite Colony Baiting System can be easily done with Advance Termite Baiting System. Performing both a spot treatment for termites and also installing termite monitors is your best option for total termite elimination.
