NCSU: ENT/for-05 Fire Ants in Horse Operations
NCSU: ENT/for-05 Fire Ants in Horse Operations
This explains what to use and how to use baits for control of Fire Ants in Pasture.
here is an excerpt:
Special Tips for Using Baits ! Do's and Don'ts ( Most bait failures are attributed to application error. )
Check for ant activity using potato chip test first.
Do not apply if ground is wet or rain occurs within 36 hours.
Do not store open product for longer than package allows. Some baits have a short shelf life and are not attractive when carrier is stale.
Do not store baits near other pesticides or fuels from which they may absorb odors and taste.
Do not apply baits directly on mounds, fire ants do not come and go from the top of the mound.
Do not disturb mounds when using baits so as not to interfere with normal foraging patterns, no matter how much fun it is.
Do not apply within ten days of applying a direct poison as there will be limited or no foraging.
Reapply as suggested by the label. This is not a permanent solution.
