InTice Fine Granular Bait

InTice Fine Granular Bait is very similar to the popular Niban bait product and is a versatile, ready-to-use, mold and moisture resistant granular bait for control of crawling insects, including roaches, ants, crickets, and silverfish. InTice Granular Bait granules are highly palatable, containing proteins, oils, and sweet to satisfy the taste preferences of a wide variety of insects and maximize bait acceptance. Available in a 1 lb shaker bottle or 5 lb. bag.


General Product Information:
InTice Granular Bait is made from a unique formula that will remain fresh and effective for 90 whole days, even in the hot sun or after several inches of rain! InTice Granular Bait is available in coarse and fine sizes so it can be used indoors or outdoors under most conditions and circumstances. Try InTice course granules as a stand alone perimeter treatment or a spot treatment for problem areas. InTice fine granules are ideal for use as an indoor treatment dusted into wall voids, under cupboards and appliances and in basements and attics.

How InTice Granular Bait works:
Crawling insects are drawn to ingest InTice Granular Bait while foraging because of its highly palatable formula containing proteins, oils, and sweet ingredients. Once ingested, the active ingredient Orthoboric Acid begins working to block the insect’s enzyme production, causing death from eventual starvation.


HOW TO APPLY INTICE GRANULAR BAIT:

For the control of ants, cockroaches, crickets and mole crickets on lawns, ornamental turf, playing fields, parks and golf coursegreens: Spread InTice Granular Bait evenly by hand or with a mechanical spreader to affected area at a rate of 2 lbs per 1000 square feet (3.2 oz or 2/3 cup per 100 square feet) or 90 lbs per acre.

When treating for mole crickets, areas to be treated should be well-irrigated prior to application and product applied late in the afternoon. For maximum effectiveness, do not irrigate treated area immediately after application.

Exterior baiting for the control of ants, including Carpenter ants around homes and other structures: Treat exterior perimeter areas of structure in a band of InTice Granular Bait at least 2 to 4 feet wide at a rate of 6 oz or 1.25 cups per 100 square feet. Also apply product in a 2 to 4 foot band around all tress, stumps, firewood piles and other locations where Carpenter ants may nest. If the nest is located in a hollow tree or stump, apply 1/2 to 1 ounce of product directly into cavity. Apply InTice Granular Bait along ant trails and in areas where ant activity has been noted.

For the control of ants, cockroaches, crickets and silverfish in and around homes, hotels, apartment buildings, stores, restaurants (nonfood areas), warehouses, and sewers: For interior applications: Apply InTice Granular Bait at a rate 4 pounds per 1000 square feet (6 oz or 1.25 cups per 100 square feet) of surface area. Apply only in areas inaccessible to children and pets or in tamper-resistant bait stations. Spread InTice Granular Bait evenly in crawl spaces, attics, dropped ceilings and cellars with dirt or gravel floors. In attics, be sure to apply in eaves and access drains. In warehouses, garages and basements, concentrate application along walls and baseboards. Concentrate application in areas where insect activity is most prevalent. InTice Granular Bait may also be applied in inaccessible areas, such as cracks and crevices, where insects may hide. Apply in pits of elevator, dumbwaiter and trash chute shafts. Apply under and behind pallets and boxes in storerooms. Bait may also be applied in removable covered bait stations in areas accessible to insects. Always record the location and number of bait stations. In sewers, apply along ledges and around manhole entrances.

Exterior applications: Treat exterior perimeter building walls in a band of InTice Granular Bait approximately two feet wide and scatter bait in flower beds, leaf litter, woodpiles, trash cans and refuse areas. Reapply as necessary.

For perimeter treatments: Spread InTice Granular Bait at a rate of 6 oz or 1.25 cups per 100 square feet in a band at least two feet wide around foundations, patios, driveways, sidewalks, entrances to homes and buildings or other areas where insects are present. Apply InTice Granular Bait around landscape lighting, floodlights, street lamps or other exterior fixtures and scatter bait in flowerbeds, leaf litter, woodpiles, around trashcans and refuse areas. Reapply as necessary.

For treating ant mounds: Apply 1/2 to 1 oz of InTice Granular Bait around all ant mounds. Supplement with broadcast application in immediate area and along ant trails and in areas where ant activity has been noted.

Crack and Crevice Applications: InTice Granular Bait may be used as a crack and crevice application using most types of dust applicators. A bellows type duster works best. Insert stem into gaps, cracks and crevices and apply 2 to 6 puffs per linear foot, depending upon severity of the infestation. Drill small holes to gain access into wall voids and under cabinets. This product may also be applied in appropriate areas with a power duster. Consult equipment manufacturer for recommended settings.
