What is the ratio of Bifen IT for a pint of water for fire ants?
I need to spray for fire ants in my yard. The instructions are unclear. Please give me the proper ratio.
Answer:
Bifen IT should be mixed at 1 oz per gallon of water and sprayed 3 ft around a fire mound. You should also drench the mound by using sufficient force to break their apex and allow the insecticide solution to flow into the ant tunnels. For best results, apply in cool weather (65 - 80?F) or in early morning or late evening hours. The finished solution should also be broadcast over the lawn surface.
