Thermals, Noise and Power Draw

As a granular insecticide, this product operates without electrical components, fans or motors. It produces no heat, audible noise or power consumption during application or after watering-in. Performance depends on following the label instructions for temperature and watering rather than any thermal or acoustic specification.

The package contains only the 3 lb. bag of granules with no additional tools, spreaders or digital resources included. Application requires the user to supply 2/3 cup per mound, a 3-ft. diameter treatment area and 2 gallons of water for drenching. No software, apps or supplementary hardware are provided or required.

Questions about this item

How do I apply the granules and what is the step people often miss?

Sprinkle two-thirds cup over the mound and a three-foot circle, then drench with two gallons of water. The step often skipped is the full drench; without it the active ingredient does not reach the queen.

What maintenance or replacement will this treatment need later?

The product carries a 900-day parts and labor guarantee. No re-application schedule is specified; retreat only if new mounds appear after the initial treatment.

What temperature limit stops the treatment from working?

Apply only when the air temperature is between 65 °F and 80 °F. Outside this range fire ants are less active and the granules will not be carried into the colony effectively.
