Tools Needed
You will need a garden hose.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Maggies Farm Yard Bug Spray RTS to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. Find the square footage by measuring the treatment area's length and width in feet, then multiplying them together (length X width = square footage). This bottle is designed to cover up to 5000 sq. ft. For preventative treatment and light infestations, apply at a rate of 500 to 600 sq. ft. per minute. For heavy infestations, apply at a rate of 250 to 300 sq. ft. per minute.
- Step 2: Attach the bottle nozzle to a garden hose. Make sure the nozzle is in the “OFF” position, and turn on the water spigot to fully open. Extend the hose to the farthest area to be treated.
- Step 3: Hold the bottle upright and point the nozzle toward the treatment site (not the ground). Bend the small plastic safety tab with your thumb and turn to “ON”.
- Step 4: Begin spraying, working back towards the spigot. The bottle will empty after 10-12 minutes of spraying. To stop spraying, turn to “OFF” position. Turn the water off. To relieve pressure before disconnecting nozzle from the hose, turn the dial to “WATER” until the water stops. Then turn back to “OFF” position and disconnect from the hose.
- Step 5: For lawn pests, spray in a sweeping motion to cover the target area, overlapping the spray to get total coverage. For plant pests, mosquitoes, ticks, and other pests that harbor in heavy vegetation, spray thoroughly to insure treatment reaches deep into vegetation, versus just spraying the top. Spray foliage to the point of runoff.
- Step 6: Reapply monthly, or as needed.
