Permethrin SFR 36.8% – Broad-Spectrum Insecticide

Description

Permethrin Mixing and Application Instructions:

⚠️ Do not apply directly to pets or livestock. Use only in labeled areas. Allow surfaces to dry before animal or human contact

Application for Subterranean Termites:

Permethrin SFR acts as an insecticidal barrier to control and prevent subterranean termite (Coptotermes, Heterotermes, Reticulitermes and Zootermopsis) infestations in and around structures. For effective control the insecticide emulsion must be adequately dispersed in the soil to establish a barrier between the structure and the termites in the soil. To establish an effective insecticidal barrier with this product the proper control practices and application techniques should be selected by a trained service technician familiar with current termite control practices.
When treating adjacent to an existing structure, the applicator must check the area to be treated, and immediately adjacent areas of the structure, for visible and accessible cracks and holes to prevent any leaks or significant exposures to persons occupying the structure. People present or residing in the structure during application must be advised to remove their pets and themselves from the structure if they see any signs of leakage. After application, the applicator is required to check for leaks. All leaks resulting in the deposition of termiticide in locations other than those prescribed on this label must be cleaned up prior to leaving the application site. Do not allow people or pets to contact contaminated areas or to reoccupy contaminated areas of the structure until the cleanup is completed.
When applying Permethrin SFR indoors, procedures should include structural design consideration and variable post-application effects from heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems (HVAC).
Outdoor application procedures should include consideration of such variable factors effected by soil type, soil compaction, grade conditions, utilities and, location and type of domestic water supply.
Contamination of public and private water supplies must be avoided by using antibackflow equipment or procedures to prevent siphonage of insecticide into water supplies.
Do not contaminate wells or cisterns.

Broadcast Treatment for Control of Nuisance Pests:

Apply using a 0.5% emulsion as a residual spray to outside surfaces of buildings including, but not limited to, exterior siding, foundations, porches, window frames, eaves, patios, garages, and refuse dumps.

Lawns:

Permethrin SFR can be applied to lawns adjacent to or around private homes, duplexes, townhouses, condominiums, house trailers, apartment complexes, carports, garages, fence lines, storage sheds, barns, residential structures, commercial and institutional buildings, and other areas where pests congregate or have been seen. Repeat treatment as necessary to maintain effectiveness.

Perimeter Treatment:

Apply a band application 6 to 10 feet wide around and adjacent to the structure. Also, treat the base of the structure to a height of 2 to 3 feet. Use a spray volume of 2 to 10 gallons of emulsion per 1000 square feet. If mulch or debris is present, a higher volume application rate may be needed to ensure adequate coverage. Treat the base of the structure to prevent insects from entering the structure.

Pests Under Slabs:

Ants, cockroaches, scorpions and other nuisance pests inhabiting under paved areas may be controlled by drilling and injecting or horizontal rodding and then injecting 1 gallon of a 0.5% to 1.0% emulsion per 10 square feet or 2 gallons per 10 linear feet.

Pest Control in Crawlspaces:

Permethrin SFR may be applied at a rate of 0.5% in crawlspaces to control ants, fleas, roaches, scorpions, or other nuisance insects listed in the table below. For proper termite directions see section on Applications for the Control of Subterranean Termites. Treat surfaces until wet.

Keep children and pets off surface until dry.
