How to Use
- Step 1: Inspect and identify the pest you want to treat and take note of the active areas where they are found or are hiding.

For light infestations, move the injector tip along cracks while treating at the rate of 3 linear feet per second. For heavy infestations, move the injector tip along at 1 linear foot per second.
- Step 4: Reapply as needed until there is no further threat.
