Use for injecting Termite Prufe solution into termite holes, mud tubes, cracks, crevices, walls and ceiling voids. Fits most brass-tipped garden sprayers. Works best for attics, crawl spaces, decks, fences, logs and new construction.

5 Star if You Use it Correctly
First of all, you need a jobbers length the same size or a little bigger.You also need to get a small rubber or silicone disk and put a hole in the middle of it.You need a fine stainless steel strainer if you sprayer does not have one in it.Process:1.Mix chemical or use straight. Pour chemical through a fine stainless filter media and into small pressure sprayer. This will remove any hunks from mixture. (At the same time, make sure sprayer and sprayer lines are clean (they are often dirty). I like to use a dedicated sprayer just for this purpose.2. Unscrew tip on sprayer and install brass cap in package with "straw" through the middle.3. Slide rubber or silicone washer with hole in it down the straw (make hole small - needs to fit tight on straw).4. Find "kickout" hole from drywood termite or find wood with termite galleries in it. Use the jobber length drill on thick wood or regular length or thinner wood. Drill into the wood carefully without going through the back side.5. Insert straw tip to point where it stops or you can feel it in a termite gallery. Push the rubber or silicone washer down on the wood and hold in place with your fingers (this will prevent backsplash).6. Fill the void with liquid until you can feel it no longer flowing into the wood.7. Remove straw and fill resulting hole with window putty or vinyl caulking or similar with water based insecticides and window putty or similar with solvent based products. All you are doing is filling the hole and keeping any excess from running out holes. It is not a necessary step in killing the termites.8. Remember, there are probably a lot of product that will kill termites at the home improvement store. So will kerosene and diesel fuel (if you don't mind the odor). Once the wood gets saturated with some solvents, termites will not be active in it for a long time/forever.Hopes this helps with some of the negative reviews of this product. It is one of those things that you need a little help in using.

PURE JUNK
All you have is small straws and a spray nozzle. The hand sprayer these straws fit worked one time and quit.

Didn't fit.
I have a couple of different garden insecticide sprayers. These didn't fit either one. I am sure they work fine if you have a compatible sprayer. I don't. I'll return them when I get a spare minute.

I thought the first one they sent out was defective ...
I thought the first one they sent out was defective, so they replaced it. The 2nd one didn't work either. The Termite Prufe stuff really works, but it's a shame that this device does not.
