Pet bedding should be replaced with clean, fresh bedding after treating the area. Do not treat pets with this product. To control the source of flea infestations, pets should be treated with a product registered for application to animals. Note: Test inconspicuous sample of fabric or rug for staining before use. Check carpet manufacturer’s warranty and care and maintenance information before using product on your specific brand of carpeting.

PERIMETER TREATMENT:

Apply a continuous band of insecticide around building foundation and around windows, doors, utility line entrances, eaves, vents and other areas to reduce the potential for entry by crawling pests. 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 3 ft wide around the structure and upward 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. 1.33 gal will cover 1,050 sq ft.

WOOD DESTROYING INSECTS:

Treat infested areas and areas likely to be infested, such as wood surfaces, voids and tunnels in damaged wood, behind veneers, in structural voids (between stud walls and spaces between wood and foundations), along cracks, along crawl spaces and around outside buildings, porches, woodpiles, wooden fences and decks. Kills exposed subterranean termites‡, dampwood termites‡, drywood termites‡, carpenter ants, ambrosid beetles, death hunter beetles, false powderpost beetles and powderpost beetles.

For Carpenter Bees:

Treat active tunnels where carpenter bee activity has been observed. Leave the entrance hole open for 48 hours after application to allow the bees to contact and distribute the insecticide throughout the nest galleries. Then plug the entrance hole with a piece of wooden dowel coated with carpenter’s glue or wood putty. Plugging the hole will prevent reinfestation of old nesting tunnels and reduce the chances of wood decay. Do not use this product as the sole source of control for active, structural infestations by subterranean termites; the purpose of this application is to kill workers or winged reproductive forms of termites that are present at the time of treatment. It is not intended to provide structural pest control. It is not a substitute for mechanical alteration, soil and foundation treatment, but merely a supplement. For active, structural infestations by subterranean termites, this product can only be used to supplement a federally registered conventional product that is registered as a sole source for termite control. This product will not eliminate termite infestations or provide protection against future infestation.
