OK... this is very very old and with failing memory...

But I was an exterminator many years ago (just out of high school).... and IIRC the termites colony can spread out more than a half mile... so a few hundred feet is nothing to them...

And there were some houses that were totally eaten away with only ONE entry point for the termites.... they are hungry buggers...

I would be surprised if an poison would kill the colony... heck, chlorodane wouldn't.... and it killed almost everything... what you try to do is put a barrier between them and your nice wood...
