The smaller bottle of Taurus SC makes over 20 gallons and has a shelf life of five years. Since I can't use all of it in 5 years the three times a year application is no additional cost to me.

There are numerous youtube pieces on how to spray the house, you should not just take the opinion of some random guy on this forum.
Do you only spray and do not Dig a trench? Never used this insecticide, but I do like to rotate chemicals.
