BROADCAST TREATMENT
Kills ants (excluding carpenter and pharaoh ants): harvester, Argentine, southern, field, Allegheny mound, cornfield, honey, pavement, red imported fire ant, nuisance, odorous, pyramid, black turf, white-footed, crazy, little black, ghost, thief, acrobat, citronella, big-headed, lawn.
- Apply granules with a spreader at a rate of 0.5 lb per 1,000 sq ft.
- Do not water in.
- Decreased ant activity will be observed as soon as 24 hours after bait placement. Fire ant mound control in treated areas will occur in as little as 48 hours after application.
- In areas where the fire ant season lasts longer than three months, reapply after 12 weeks (3 months) to prevent reinfestation.
USE TIPS
- For best results, apply in early spring or summer at the first sign of ant activity to prevent fire ant mounds and ant nests from forming.
- Apply in the early morning or late evening when ants are actively foraging.
- Do not apply if rain is expected within 4-6 hours.
- Do not water or mow treated area for 24 hours after application. This will allow time for the ants to forage the bait and take it to the mound.
- Treating the entire yard is recommended since it will kill foraging ants, ant nests and fire ant mounds that may not be visible at the time of application.
