We live in Florida and the raining season is upon us. Once it begins to warm up during spring/summer it rains almost every other day. Obviously the product should be applied at least 24 hrs before a rain but what happens if it is constantly raining over the summer season? We've only used this as recommended at 0.06% dilution and have done a total of two applications so far about 5 months apart. We did one last fall right as the temps were dropping and again last week as the weather warms up. It is now consistently 85 degrees here in Orlando and I'm afraid the heat and upcoming rain will diminish the product's effectiveness. Should we be using the 0.04% dilution rate instead to allow for 4 applications per year? Will this percent still be effective on the ants?
You may make up to 4 applications a year with Taurus SC if you make a 0.03% finished dilution (0.4 oz per gallon of water). The application will still be effective as long as it's applied 24 hours before rain.
