Tools Needed
Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait can be applied with either a refillable bait stations, push spreader, broadcast spreader, handheld spreader, or duster.
When treating individual mounds, we recommend using a spoon-like tool to apply the bait around the mound. Do not use utensils that are used in the kitchen.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). Depending on the ant species you are trying to control the outdoor broadcast application rate will vary between 2-4 oz. of Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait per 5,000 sq. ft. To treat individual ant mounds outside, use 2 to 5 level of tablespoons of product per ant mound. To make indoor cracks, crevices, and void treatments apply 0.25 oz. (2 teaspoons) of product per 100 sq. ft.
- Step 2: Fill the spreader with the correct amount of Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait and adjust the spreader settings to ensure even distribution.
- Step 3: Walk around the perimeter of the lawn and work towards the middle, pushing the spreader at a steady pace. Two passes should be made of the area at a normal walking speed of 2.5 mph (100 ft. covered in 27 seconds)
- Step 4: Do not water the treated area for the next 24 hours, to ensure ants have had time to take the bait to the colony.

No more fire ants
Easy to sprinkle on the ground at dusk or dawn. Double action kills instant and inhibits others later. I have to reapply twice a year with about 95% control. It works for me! Expensive but worth the time saved.

Best fire ant killer.
Best thing I found for fire ants, just takes a few weeks and put it out lightly. I wish my spreader would work with this as I’m covering a lot of land with it.

Couldn't be happier.
Dead fire ants. Havent returned yet! What more can I ask for? Put out with a broadcast spreader when they were active. No rain or water for a couple days.

Almost Perfect
Works really well but only controls the fire ants. I was hoping for elimination. It does reduce the colonies around our home and greenhouses.

Extinguish is extremely easy to apply with a spreader on a RTV.
We have a horse farm with about 30 Acres of pasture and 5 Acres of yard we broadcast Extinguish last spring in two separate applications and eliminated 90% of our ants. We have purchased enough Extinguish to do a single application this spring.

Q:Gardens safe application use prior to planting?3/23/21A:I would use it prior to planting to avoid getting stung, but you can’t use it if you’re planting any food crops. It’s been very effective in our yard, but it does have to reapplied after rain or reinfestation.

Q:which product is better for pastures extinguish plus or extinguish pro?3/5/21A:I have only used the "Plus" version and it is hard to get clear answer to this question. They are both similar but the PLUS version has a growth regulator and an added component that will kill adults while the PRO version only has a growth regulator. I have had very good results broadcasting the PLUS version on our pastures. The key is making sure the ants are actively feeding and no rain for a couple days. I use a herd spreader to broadcast and it works very well. Hope this helps.

Q:can this product be applied prior to a soaking rain, within 48 hours?4/18/18A:I have read that once Extinguish gets wet it becomes ineffective. I try to apply it when the ants can have 3 days to get at it before it gets wet. They need that time to gather an effective amount.
