Country Bifenthrin Granular, 15 kg

Country Bifenthrin Granular is meant for the control of certain pests in turfs, such as ants, fleas, and ticks in the external surrounds of buildings and structures. Lawns, gardens, golf courses, and turf farms can be severely impacted by lawn pests, ticks, beetles, and armyworms and the impact can be financial as well as aesthetic. Ants and fleas can also live outdoors and still impact human comfort and health.

Apply Country Bifenthrin Granular with suitable application equipment to ensure uniform coverage over the treatment area. To ensure optimum control, irrigate the treated area with up to 4 mm of water immediately after application. Inspect treated areas for continuing activity. Re-apply as required.

Apply granules to areas where ants are active. Where possible apply granules directly to the nest. Use the low rate for maintenance treatments or to control light infestations. Use the high rate for heavy infestations and for maximum residual control. The elimination of funnel ants from a particular site will generally require more than one application. Initial applications should be broadcast over affected areas. As the number of active colonies is reduced, application should shift to targeting active mounds. Apply granules directly to the mound and in the area immediately surrounding active mounds (300 mm radius).

Perimeter Application: Where perimeter pest control is being implemented apply Country Bifenthrin Granular in a two or three metre band, around and adjacent to the building or structure.

Pad Mounted Electrical Sites: To reduce or prevent ant mound building activity on electrical pads, uniformly distribute 60 to 220 grams of Country Bifenthrin Granular per 10 m2 of mounting pad. Where existing transformers are completely or partially filled with soil excavated by resident ants, remove any excess fill and level the remaining soil prior to application.

Application against Flea larvae: Flea larvae develop in the soil of shaded areas that are accessible to pets or other animals. For optimum results irrigate the treated areas with up to 10 mm of water immediately after application. Use higher application rates when treating areas with dense ground cover or heavy leaf litter.

Applications should be made in late summer/autumn to control larvae and nymphs that reside in the soil and leaf litter. DO NOT make spot applications. Treat the entire area where exposure to ticks may occur. Use higher application rates when treating area with dense ground cover or heavy leaf litter. Ticks may be reintroduced from surrounding areas on host animals. Retreat as necessary to maintain adequate control.
