Hi,
Does anyone have any experience with this kind of situation?
My neighbor just let us know that they will be treating their garage for termites and dry rot. The structure is directly against the chain link fence between their property and our hens' run. They will be drilling holes in the ground and injecting Termidor SC (Fipronil) and I think spraying the siding with Tim-Bor (Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate). He's got termites so I totally understand that they need to be treated. Plus he was kind enough to give us plenty of advance notice.
I've searched the Google and couldn't find any definitive information about health risks to poultry. I was thinking about putting up plastic sheeting all along the fence to minimize any exposure while they are applying the pesticides. However I can't find any information about lingering impacts if any.
Any experience you can share would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
