Do not allow children or pets into the treated area until dry. 

  • Do not water the treated area to the point of runoff.
  • Do not make applications during rain.
  • All outdoor applications must be limited to spot or crack-and-crevice treatments only, except for the following permitted uses:
  1. Treatment to soil or vegetation around structures
  2. Applications to lawns, turf and other vegetation
  3. Applications to building foundations, up to a maximum height of 3 ft. Other than applications to building foundations, all outdoor applications to impervious surfaces such as sidewalks, driveways, patios, porches and structural surfaces (such as windows, doors and eaves) are limited to spot and crack-and-crevice applications only.
  • Application is prohibited directly into sewers or drains, or to any area like a gutter where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies, or aquatic habitat can occur. Do not allow the product to enter any drain during or after application.

In New York State, this product may not be applied to lawns within 100 ft of a coastal marsh, or stream that drains directly into a coastal marsh. 

Determine the size of the spraying job. For lawns, measure the area to be sprayed. For trees, shrubs and flowers, apply as a thorough cover spray. Begin treating when insects first appear. Applications should be repeated only as directed to maintain control. Apply as directed. Remember, thorough coverage is important. Be sure to follow the important use limitations for the specific vegetable you are treating, including the amount of spray that can be applied, the interval between treatments and the days to wait before harvest.

HOW TO USE THE QUICKFLIP™ SPRAYER

  1. Shake container well before using
  2. Connect a garden hose to the sprayer nozzle. Make sure switch is fully forward in the “OFF” position
  3. Turn on water at faucet. Extend hose to the farthest area to be treated and work back toward the faucet so you don't come in contact with the treated area.
  4. Remove safety tab from sprayer’s right side by pulling straight out. Discard or keep for future reuse.
  5. To BEGIN spraying, point nozzle toward treatment site and pull switch backward toward hose connection. Water will automatically mix with the product.
  6. Spray until wet to control insects. Walk at a steady pace, working back toward the faucet while spraying, using an even sweeping motion, slightly overlapping treated areas.
  7. To STOP spraying, push switch forward toward nozzle. Turn water off at faucet. To relieve pressure before removing nozzle from hose, pull switch backward toward hose connection until water stops spraying.
  8. To STORE unused product, make sure switch is fully forward in the “OFF” position.
  9. Reinstall safety tab into sprayer’s right side. With sprayer in the full “OFF” position, push tab into position.
  10. Place in cool area away from heat, sunlight or open flame.


‡NOTE: This product is non-staining to most home siding depending on age and cleanliness. However, before using in areas where the spray may contact home siding (vinyl siding in particular), test in an inconspicuous area and recheck in a few hours. Do not use if any staining is observed. 

SURFACE INSECTS including ants‡ ‡, armyworms, cockroaches, crickets¥, cutwormsß, earwigs, fleas, ladybeetles****, lawn moths (sod webworms), millipedes, mosquitoes, moths∞, Palmetto bugs, sowbugs, mites^, spittlebugs, waterbugs, lone star ticks, brown dog ticks, American dog ticks and deer ticks (which may transmit Lyme Disease): Use 1 qt of this product to treat 5,120 sq ft of lawn. Thoroughly wet down grass a few hours before applying. Delay additional watering or mowing for 24 hours after application for optimum control of surface insects. Do not apply more than 14 times per year per location.

WHEN TO TREAT:
Treat ants‡‡ and other insects when they first appear or you notice lawn damage. ‡‡ Argentine, southern, field, Allegheny mound, Florida carpenter, red carpenter, black carpenter, cornfield, honey, pavement, nuisance, odorous, pyramid, black turf, white-footed, crazy, little black, ghost, thief, acrobat, citronella, big-headed, lawn, lasius

^ Banks grass, carmine, European, grain, Pacific, russet, spruce

FIRE ANT MOUNDS
Mix 3.0 fl oz (6 Tbsp) in 1 gallon of water and apply to each fire ant mound. Thoroughly wet the mound and surrounding area to a 4 ft diameter. For best results, apply in cool weather, 65˚F to 80˚F, or in the early morning or late evening. Kills the entire mound, including the queen, in 24 hours. Treat new mounds as they appear. Do not disturb the mound prior to treatment.


For control of ants‡‡, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets¥, fleas, millipedes, mosquitoes, Palmetto bugs, scorpions, sowbugs, pillbugs, spiders, deer ticks and waterbugs.
Mix 1.5 fl oz (3 Tbsp) in 1 gallon of water and apply as a continuous band of insecticide around building foundation and around windows, doors, eaves, vents and other areas to greatly reduce the potential for entry by crawling pests. For easier application, remove debris and leaf litter from next to the foundation, cut back vegetation and branches that touch the foundation, and move or rake back rocks, deep mulch or other potential pest harborage next to the foundation. Apply a 3-foot band around the structure and upward along the foundation to 3 ft and around windows, doors and roof overhangs. Apply as a coarse spray to thoroughly and uniformly wet the foundation and/or band area so that the insecticide will reach the soil or thatch level where pests may be active. One gallon will treat 240 sq ft of surface area. Repeat application every eight weeks.

OUTDOOR SURFACES USE: Mix 1.5 fl oz (3 Tbsp) in 1 gallon of water and apply as a residual treatment to ornamental plants next to foundations of buildings and to surfaces of buildings, porches, screens, window frames, eaves, patios, garages and other similar areas where these pests are active. Repeat application every eight weeks.
