How to Use
HOW TO MIX AND APPLY:
STEP 1: Determine size of spraying job. For lawns and vegetables, measure the area to be sprayed. For trees, shrubs and flowers, apply as a thorough cover spray. Make applications when insects first appear. Applications should be repeated only as directed to maintain control.
STEP 2: Use a clean sprayer. Carefully measure and mix the amount of product and water as indicated in the directions. It is always a good idea to wear disposable gloves when handling pesticides. Kitchen utensils such as measuring cups and measuring spoons should not be used for food purposes after use with pesticides.
STEP 3: Spray as directed. Thorough coverage is important.
STEP 4: Flush sprayer with clean water after each use.
See directions for list of use sites, plants and insects controlled. Use the rate given in the directions for the type of insect you want to control on the site or plant you are spraying.

Where to Use
LAWNS:
SURFACE INSECTS including ants*, armyworms, cockroaches, crickets, cutworms, earwigs, fleas, lawn moths (sod webworms), millipedes, mosquitoes, Palmetto bugs, sowbugs, mites, spittlebugs and waterbugs: Thoroughly wet down grass a few hours before applying. Mix 0.5 fl oz (1 Tbsp) in 1 gallon of water to cover 250 sq ft or 2 fl oz (4 Tbsp) in 4 gallons of water to cover 1,000 sq ft of lawn. Delay additional watering or mowing for 24 hours after application for optimum control of surface insects. For heavy infestations or to kill lone star ticks, brown dog ticks, American dog ticks and deer ticks (which may transmit Lyme Disease), use rate can be increased to 3 fl oz/1,000 sq ft. 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, cornfield, honey, pavement, nuisance
Nuisance Pests Outside the Home:
HOME BARRIER TREATMENT: Mix 0.5 fl oz (1 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 ft 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 250 sq ft of surface area. Repeat application every 8 weeks.
OUTDOOR SURFACES USE: For control of ants*, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, fleas, millipedes, mosquitoes, palmetto bugs, scorpions, sowbugs, pillbugs, spiders, deer ticks and waterbugs. Mix 0.5 fl oz (1 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 8 weeks.
