Ant Adios Application FAQs
When should I use
Pest control will likely need to be repeated throughout the growing season. The best time to treat ant issues is when they’re small. Treat ants preventively across the lawn or home barrier, or reactively by placing bait in foraging trails or near mounds, as directed.
How do I use this with other Sunday products? Why should I apply in this order?
Apply all Sunday liquid lawn and pest repellent products before applying dry pest baits. Why? This product attracts feeding ants that will take the bait back to their colony to feed on. It will only attract ants when dry so it’s important not to get it wet—or to reapply it if it does get wet. If you’re treating an ant mound within your lawn, you should avoid seeding that area until the bait has been consumed—about 1-2 weeks.
What if I apply out of order?
If you’re ready to apply a liquid product when bait is already on the ground, then you should avoid spraying the bait-treated areas. If you accidentally get them wet, then it’s best to reapply the bait once the liquid has dried.
