How effective is Prevail FT Termicide also know as cypermethrin for treating termite infestations?

it can be effective where it is put out. It is in a class of termiticides known to be repellent. The product creates a chemical shield where ever it is put out. If you knew where the termites were coming out of the ground at the bottom of a window and you used Prevail, it would stop them from attacking that area but they could just move a few inches over and continue on. when you treat a home with it you need to treat all of the possible entry points with it for if you have a break in the barrier, even the width of a pencil mark, termites can return. A product called Termidor would be a much better choice to control termite activity.
