Application

USDA Quarantine Approved

Can be used as a broadcast application or used to treat individual mounds

For individual mound treatments, apply at a rate of 2 to 5 level tablespoons distributed evenly around the mound. Take care not to disturb the mound when applying.
Broadcast application: 1.5lb per acre
Broadcast applications are more efficient than individual mound treatments because developing mounds cannot be seen due to their small size. These applications can be made with spreaders. Just spread Extinguish® Plus bait at a rate of 1.5 lbs per acre through a 1/8” gate on your spreader.

How to be Effective

Extinguish® Plus bait is more attractive to fire ants when it is dry. Apply it at least six hours after a rain event and do not water for 24 hours after application. For best results, always read and follow label directions before applying.

Timing is everything!

Extinguish® Plus bait is the most effective when the fire ants are actively foraging for food. To determine this, place several crushed “oil fried” potato chips several feet out around a fire ant mound. Usually, within 10-15 minutes, ants will show signs of foraging activity.
