Mixing ratios depend on target pest and whether you’re treating animals or premises; the label provides precise dilution rates and compatible application equipment. Typical uses include water-based sprays for barns, spot treatments for animals, and perimeter applications around facilities.

• Use clean water and measure concentrate accurately to achieve label-prescribed ppm or percent.
• Apply with a hand-pump sprayer, backpack sprayer or similar equipment designed for agricultural concentrates.
