Mound Treatment (Kills the QUEEN AND Colony)

  1. Sprinkle 1/2 cup granules over and 2 ft around each mound.
  2. Immediately after applying, GENTLY water in granules using at least 1 gallon of water for each mound. Do not apply within 24 hours of rain. Do not allow to run off from target site.
  3. Treat new mounds as they appear.
  4. For spot treatment of ants, other than fire ants: Apply 1 to 1 1/2 tsp over and around each ant hill.

Use Tips:

  1. For best results, apply in morning or evening hours. At these times, fire ants are closer to the surface, virtually assuring the product will contact them.
  2. Gentle application of water is important as high-pressure spray may disturb ants and cause migration, reducing product effectiveness.

Environmental Hazards:

This product is highly toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. To protect the environment, do not allow pesticide to enter or run off into storm drains, drainage ditches, gutters or surface waters. Applying this product in calm weather when rain is not predicted for the next 24 hours will help to ensure that wind or rain does not blow or wash pesticide off the treatment area. Sweeping any product that lands on a driveway, sidewalk or street, back onto the treated area of the lawn or garden will help to prevent runoff to water bodies or drainage systems.
