Okay so, Termidor HE is just BASF taking advantage of Advanced Polymer Technology (AVP) essentially "coating" the active ingredient molecules so they migrate further through soil before breaking down. (Just think of the coating put on pills we take so they can be time-released, etc.)
Here is a video - along with a bunch of other videos - you should watch:
What is the difference between Termidor 80 WG and Termidor SC?
https://www.domyown.com/what-is-the-difference-between-termidor-80-wg-and-termidor-sc-qa-120.html
"Both Termidor 80 WG and Termidor SC when mixed with water, make the same type of solution.
The "WG" in Termidor 80 WG stand for wettable granule.
The "SC" in Termidor SC stands for suspended concentrate.
They are just different formulations of the same product.
The Termidor 80 WG is easier for professional termite control operators to carry in their trucks, and it is easier to mix.
However, Termidor 80 WG cannot be sold to homeowners, it can only be sold to licensed professionals.
Only the Termidor SC in the 20 oz bottle can be sold to homeowners for personal use.
NO need to "name names" as far as contractors.
BIGGEST QUESTION IS HOPEFULLY YOU ARE NOT DEALING ANY LONGER WITH THE PEOPLE you describe in your first post this thread , that told you, well, these clowns:

…
I pay a service company for termite protection - they placed baits and all around the house - who came by, had a look and basically said "that's nature, this is their home, let us know if they hit the house and we will come take care of it". Need to mention, the lot is backed by woods.
If you are still in communication with ^those^ clowns please let me know , will you?
Here's who my sister used and I was surprised she actually found out about them from her HOA who it turns out was somewhat aware of who was worth their salt and who was not as neighbors talk to neighbors, etc., etc.:
Their page describing their oo-la-la "high precision injection" process ("
Whatever, just get the Termidor where I need it, dudes!l): https://allexterminatingga.com/services/termidor-termite-treatment/
Their page describing their "custom hole repair" (again, "
Whatever, I ain't paying you extra to custom match mortar you use to plug 1/2" holes - just plug em with whatever you have on the truck OR BETTER YET, I'll run down to ACE and buy the mortar I want you to use, how bout that?":
https://allexterminatingga.com/services/custom-hole-repair/
ARE YOU SEEING THE PATTERN YET?
WHY ONLY SELL A CUSTOMER A TERMIDOR TREATMENT WHEN YOU CAN ALSO SELL, PRESSURE, SALES PITCH, CAJOLE OR WEAR THEM DOWN TO ALSO FORKING MORE MONEY OVER FOR:
1) "Insurance" (I'd still be laughing my *ss over "insurance" from a termite guy, if it weren't so sad knowing there ARE those $ucker$ out there … :roll: )
2) "Annual comebacks" ("
Wait a minute, if this stuff is guaranteed for 10 years, why would I even need to pay you to come back - you should come back for free if it's guaranteed, right? - let alone "buy" insurance from you?"
3) "Custom color matched mortar" :roll:
My sister jumped in my you-know-what demanding, "Tell this guy in Atlanta to go to DoMyOwn or DoYourOwn!!!!!"
I explained your situation to her and how you need the concrete slab treatments done.
She also pointed out:
1) "
A big issue now is skilled employee shortages.
Company that was good previously may have lost longtime trained crews and filled the gap with crappy, less skilled staff.
So, Caveat Emptor … and;
2)
If he has neighborhood ACE hardware, some of the folks at ACE stores often know who's good at whatever and will tell you."
^That first point^ Is a critical one as we have another sister who was actually POISONED by a pest control company in Palm Coast FL when they gave the keys to the company tank truck to a high school kid who would do calls after school - he was supposed to mix "0.09 %" of some poison to treat the house they'd just moved into for fleas and instead the kid mixed the stuff at 9.0 % and went to town spraying with my sister and her newborn in the house!
6-hours later they were both rushed to ER - she was in the hospital for a week and my niece (already a premie) spent over a month in the neo-natal care unit.
Almost 30 years later and neither one of them is anywhere near normal. It's horrible seeing them suffer after all these years.
The pest control company simply changed their name after which She consulted with THE TOP attorneys throughout the SE US and everyone of them told her her case was DOA in FL due to the deals the FL legislators had cut with the big chemical companies.
But, I digress …
Just
Git R Dun dude - and without any insurance, annual comebacks or paying for custom color matched mortar, please! :lol:
