How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much Sniper Insecticide 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). To find acreage, divide the square footage by one acre (square footage / 43,560 sq. ft. = acre) or measure the length of corn rows to get linear feet depending on the area to be treated. Depending on the treatment area, apply 2.1 to 6.4 oz. of Sniper Insecticide per acre in a minimum of 5 gallons of water. For field corn, the dosage is 0.15 to 0.30 fl. oz. of product per 1,000 linear ft. of row. Refer to the product label, as each crop type has a specific application rate and restrictions. 
• Step 2: To mix, put half the required water in your sprayer, add the appropriate amount of Sniper Insecticide, and shake until thoroughly mixed.
• Step 3: Apply the Sniper Insecticide mixture to the target treatment areas, spraying until wet but not to the point of runoff. A fan spray pattern is recommended for uniform coverage.
