The use of the word Termidor triggered this response from the MANUFACTURER. "Promoting/advertising" their company.
I don't think they are promoting their company - they are alarmed that someone is using their product improperly. And quite frankly - it alarms me, too. I'm glad they popped up on here - just read back through these posts!!! What kind of toxic stew are we camping on and letting our pets/kids walk through???? How many people have copiously "treated" your campsite for bugs before you arrived??
Several years ago, we spent a few weeks camping in FL; and after we got home, both Jimmy and Ike had large patches on their backs where the fur was very sparse (almost bald in the case of Jimmy). My Vet assumed they had been exposed to something mildly toxic while camped.
This is one of the reasons we chose to buy a condo for snowbirding, instead of RVing. Yes, our condo uses chemicals, but they are applied by PROFESSIONALS who also warn us when an area has been treated. The bug-phobic campers don't do that.
