For Treatment of Fire Ants
Seen from above fire ant mounds appear roughly circular. Visually divide
mound into four quadrants and determine mounds’ center. Probe insertions
and treatment should be made in center of each quadrant with final insertion
being in center of mound.
Attach soil injector probe firmly onto can. Holding probe approximately
1 inch above mound, begin spraying and slowly insert probe into mound.
Continue spraying for entire
mound treatment. To maximize spray distribution, push probe into mound
until resistance to further insertion is felt (contact with firm dirt),
indicating that probe has reached bottom of mound.
Only one injection site is necessary on a mound 6 inches or less. The injection in a 6 inch or smaller mound should be for 5 seconds. Larger mounds should be treated in several injections on the basis of size—10 seconds total for mounds 6-12 inches in diameter, 15 seconds total for mounds 12-18 inches diameter, and 20 seconds minimum for mounds greater than 18 inches diameter. On large mounds, treatment may be extended by 1 to 2 additional seconds, in order to insure that aerosol formulation reaches all cavities within the mound or colony. Reexamine the mound after 7 days and re-treat if any activity is apparent. Look for new mounds in the immediate vicinity and treat these as well in order to prevent inefficiency from mound migration. For best results, apply in cool weather or in early morning or late evening hours.
NOTICE: Buyer assumes all responsibility for safety and use no in accordance with directions.
