    Q
    How much Bifen IT & how to apply to carpenter ant nest in the yard.
    The book says to dilute 0.5 to 1 oz to a gallon of water & apply at a rate of 10 gal per 1000 sq ft. So can I make 1 gallon & apply in a 10 ft by 10 ft area around the carpenter ant nest?
    A
    You can definitely mix Bifen IT in smaller quantities to fit your needs as long as you are following the general guidelines described on the product label. Be sure to thoroughly saturate the carpenter ant gallery for best results.

    Q
    How do I apply it to my lawn for Japanese Beetle grubs, and how much?

    Bifen IT is not labeled for treating grubs. We do carry several products that are labeled for grubs including Adonis 2F, Merit Granules, Milky Spore and Dylox. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Grubs for a successful eradication program.

    Q
    How much Bifen I/T do I mix with water to kill fire ants?
    A

    Per the Bifen I/T Product Label:

    Imported Fire Ants: The best control will be achieved by using broadcast treatments in combination with mound drenches. This will control present colonies along with foraging workers and newly mated flyin queens. It is critical either to use high volume treatments or to irrigate prior to application if the soil is dry. Apply 1 fl. oz. per 1,000 square feet when using broadcast treatments. For mound drenches, dilute 1 teaspoon of Bifen I/T per gallon of water and use 1 to 2 gallons of finished dilution using sufficient force to penetrate the top and allow dilution to flood ant channels. Treat a four-foot diameter around each ant mound. Application should be made in late evening or early morning when it is cooler (65

    Q
    Is it safe to spray this around the parameter of a raised bed garden?
    I also have several apple trees in an area surrounded by mulch. Can this be sprayed on the mulch (not directly on the trees) and the apples will still be safe to eat?
    A
    As long as the product does not come into direct contact with the plants, their roots or drip line, you can use the product around the areas safely. Try to spray on a very calm sunny day to allow for less chance of wind drift as you spray and for quicker dry times.
