    Q
    How long do I agitate Alpine WSG?
    A

    According to the mixing instructions on the manufacturer's label for Alpine WSG, you should add approximately 1/2 of the water to the spray tank, add the product to the water, then complete filling the spray tank.  You should then agitate the tank unit until the product is completely dissolved.  Reagitate the finished dilution if application is interrupted for an extended period of time.  
    This water soluble granule insecticide should not need excessive agitation, but should be agitated thoroughly to ensure that it goes into solution completely before applying.

    Q
    Can Alpine WSG be used in an actisol machine for German roaches?
    Is this product labeled for fogging? Read the entire label but I need reassurance.
    A

    Alpine WSG cannot be used in any type of fogging equipment.  Actisol units are not foggers though, they just apply products like an aerosol application and since the Alpine WSG dissolves completely you can use in the machine.

    Per the manufacturer: 

    Alpine can be delivered using an Actisol machine. However, we would recommend the user pre mix the solution in a 1 gallon container and not in the Actisol tank.

    MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:

    Thoroughly clean spray equipment before mixing and application of this product. Add approximately 1/2 of the water to the 1 gallon container. Tear open the packet and add contents to water, then complete the filling of the spray tank. Agitate the solution until the product is completely dissolved. Reagitate finished dilution if application is interrupted for an extended period of time or if dilution is left in tank overnight.

    DO NOT LEAVE UNUSED FORMULATION IN THE ACTISOL TANK FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.

    BACKFLUSH THE HOSE AND WAND AFTER EACH USE AND RETURN UNUSED FORMULATION THE MIXING CONTAINER. (Instructions can be found in the operations manual for the Actisol machine)

    REAGITATE FORMULATION BEFORE EVERY USE.

    DO NOT FILL MORE THAN 20-24 oz. OF FORMULATION TO THE ACTISOL TANK.

    Q
    How long after diluting Alpine WSG can I continue to use the solution?
    Do I have to use all of what I mixed right away?
    A

    While most insecticide concentrates need to be used within 24 hours of diluting, Alpine WSG solution can be used much longer. As long as the solution was agitated enough to mix completely, then you can use the solution for 10-14 days after diluting it.
