Directions for Use:

All outdoor applications must be limited to spot or crack-and-crevice treatments only, except for the following permitted uses:

1. Treatment to soil or vegetation around structures;
2. Applications to lawns, turf, and other vegetation;
3. Applications to building foundations, up to a maximum height of 3 feet.

Other than applications to building foundations, all outdoor applications to impervious surfaces such as sidewalks, driveways, patios, porches, and structural surfaces (such as windows, doors, and eaves) are limited to spot and crack-and-crevice applications only.

Outdoor Surfaces and Perimeters

To control flies, fleas, mosquitoes, ants, bees, wasps, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, pillbugs, scorpions, sowbugs, spiders, termites* (above ground only), ticks and other listed pests, apply OptiMate CS with either hand or power application equipment as a residual treatment to ornamental plants next to foundations of buildings and to external surfaces of buildings, porches, screens, door and window frames, eaves, patios, garages, refuse dumps and other areas where insects rest or congregate. OptiMate CS may also be applied to lawns around non-residential buildings, or to refuse dumps or other non-residential areas where these insect pests congregate. Remove all exposed food and cooking utensils and cover all food handling surfaces or wash thoroughly after treatment and before use.                         Do Not Use on Edible Crops.

For Perimeter treatments, apply a continual band of insecticide around building foundations and around windows, doors, service line entrances, eaves, vents, and other areas to reduce the potential for entry by crawling pests. Before application, remove debris and leaf litter from next to the foundation, cut back vegetation and branches that touch the foundation, and move or rake back rocks, deep mulch, or other potential pest harborage next to the foundation. apply the band up to 10 ft. wide around the structure (or according to state regulations governing commercial pest control) and upwards along the foundation to 3 ft. and around windows, doors, and roof overhangs. apply as a coarse spray to thoroughly and uniformly wet the foundation and/or band area so that the insecticide will reach the soil or thatch level where pests may be active
