HOW TO APPLY

For residential use only.
Apply this product undiluted

in portable thermal applicator

equipment that can deliver fine,
aerosol-range spray particles. Fog at

the rate of 0.75 fluid ounces per 500

sq ft (a 25’ x 20’ area). Thoroughly
fog shrubs, groundcovers, and lawn

areas surrounding the area you

point of runoff or drip. Allow fog to
penetrate foliage where mosquitoes

and biting flies rest. Create a “fogged

buffer zone” as your space allows.
