    Q
    I saw squirrels eating the granules. What attracts them and will Advion Insect Granule Bait hurt them?
    I am using advion granular bait.
    A
    Advion Insect Granules are a food based insect bait so the same thing that attracts ants could potentially attract other animals such as squirrels. According to the Advion Insect Granule MSDS "This product has no known adverse effect on human health if it is ingested" and therefore would most likely not have an adverse effect on the squirrels health either.

    Q
    Why won't the Advion Insect Granule Bait work on red imported fire ants?
    Why won't the Advion Insect Granule Bait work on red imported fire ants, yet the Advion ant bait arena will?
    A
    The bait matrix or the food based ingredients that attract the ants are different and may not be as attractive to that particular ant species. Advion does make a bait specifically for fire ants: Advion Fire Ant Bait

  • Asked by Mark from Sterling, Va
    04/10/2013
    Q
    If you do spread it along the whole lawn, how many sq ft does the 25lb bag treat? How often do you need to apply?
    Do you apply the granuels with your standard lawn spreader and apply to the whole lawn, or do you just sprinkle granuels where you see a cluster of ants?
    A

    You can use a standard granule spreader as long as it can be calibrated to spread 4.6 lbs per 1,000 sq ft. (this is the max usage rate for the initial treatment. 1.15 to 4.6 lbs per 1000 square feet for most insects on the label)

    How to calibrate your spreader:

    Almost all fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides, etc have treatments in amounts of so much product per 1000 square feet.  So if you can figure out what your walking speed is then you know anytime you apply any product that calls for so much of it per 1000 square feet, you always set your spreader on this setting.  You can calibrate this by marking off a 1000 square foot (10 x 100) area and placing the required amount of product in pounds in the spreader.  Start with a low setting and start walking your marked off area at a normal pace.  You can adjust as you go and find the basic setting for you to apply the product over a 1000 square feet.

    Q
    Can I use Advion Insect Granule Bait in my apartment?
    I am starting to see roaches (IDK what kind, I'm in Missouri) in my very clean apartment. The manager says they're likely from other tenants. I am buying the Advion Gel Bait but want this also. How can I apply this in my apartment to keep these bastards out until I move!
    A

    Advion Insect Granules are not meant for use indoors for roaches. It is only labeled for crawl spaces, attics, etc.

    We would recommend using Roach Control Kit Rotation A instead. This comes with everything you will need to do a complete treatment for roaches.

    STEP 1: Baiting - Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Bait Gel

    *To use the Maxforce FC Magnum tube, remove the closed tip by gently unscrewing it, and replace it with one of the included reuseable open tips. Use the provided plastic plunger or a bait gun to dispense the gel.

    *Apply small bait placements approximately

    Q
    How often should I apply Advion Insect Granule Bait for mole crickets on golf greens?
    Was considering using fipronil but, it may be too toxic after application with regard to golfer safety handling balls, touching eyes, etc.
    A

    Per the Advion Insect Granule Bait Product Label: Outdoor Broadcast Application: Advion Insect Granule may be applied as a broadcast application at the rate of 50 to 200 pounds of product per acre. Calibrate and adjust equipment prior to application to ensure that the proper rate of product is uniformly applied over the treatment area. Repeat application after 7 days, if necessary. 

    Most will reapply product every few weeks depending on activity of pest in the area and weather patterns that could affect the residual capacity of the product outdoors.

    Please see our Mole Cricket Pest Guide for more tips and information.

    Q
    Must I dampen the soil before spreading Advion Insect Granule Bait for mole crickets?
    What month is best for spreading Advion in northeast Florida to combat mole crickets?
    A

    For mole crickets, Advion Insect Granule Bait should be applied in the spring. The specific month is in either March or April before the adult mole crickets have the chance to lay eggs. It is important to irrigate the soil before for the best results. This will bring the adult mole crickets to the surface. Rainfall or irrigation that occurs within 2-3 days after application may lessen the effectiveness of the product.

    Q
    Will Advion Insect Granule Insecticide Bait work on German roaches?
    A

    Consistent and repeat applications every 14 days using the residual spray and replacing roach bait placements are required to eradicate an active roach infestation. Please review our How to Get Rid of Roaches Guide for more information.
