APPLICATION DIRECTIONS:
Scatter the bait granules on the soil around or near the plants to be
protected with a suitable hand or power operated spreader (gravity or
rotary) to ensure uniform coverage over the treatment area. Apply bait
evenly at approximately 0.5 to 1 lb. per 1,000 square feet, or for
smaller areas, 0.075 to 0.15 oz., or 0.5 to 1 teaspoon, per square yard.
Do not place in piles. Scatter the bait around the perimeter of the area
to provide a protective “barrier” for pests entering the area. If the
ground is dry, wet it before applying bait. The product works best when
soil is moist but with little or no standing water. Do not use food
utensils such as tablespoons, cups, etc. for food purposes after
pesticide use.
Do not apply more than 3 times in any 30 day period. Apply at the
higher rate if the infestation is severe. Re-apply after heavy rain or
watering. Do not apply within 3 days of harvest.
For seedlings, spread the bait around the base of the stem. For trees
or shrubs, spread the bait around the base of the tree. For small plots,
treat around the base of the plants to be protected. In greenhouses,
scatter the bait in the pots of plants being damaged or around pots on
greenhouse benches.
Evening is the best time to apply the bait as pests travel and feed
mostly by night or early morning. Treat all likely areas of infestation,
especially around the perimeter of garden plots for target pests
because pests travel into plant areas from daytime refuges. Slugs &
snails favor damp places around vegetable plants such as beans,
tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage, celery and squash. Other favorite areas
are flower gardens, rockeries, hedges, dichondra, lawns, ivy patches,
and other ground cover where they obtain shelter by day.
