    The shelf life of Dominion 2L is 3-5 years if kept out of the heat. Your basement would be a terrific area to store this product.

    Q
    I bought Dominion 2L to treat for ants entering my home. What is the mix ratio?
    I think they told me to mix 2oz. per gallon of water in a hand sprayer and spray 2 feet up the out side wall and a band 2 feet wide on the ground,is that correct. Thank you.
    A
    For outdoor topical ant treatment applying Dominion 2L, the mix should be 0.6 fluid ounces per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft. You should only apply one foot up and one foot out directly around the structure. Please let us know if you need anything else.

    Q
    Is Dominion 2L applied on the ground or on top of the foundation?
    A

    Dominion 2L Termiticide/Insecticide can be used in the soil and/or around the foundation. Where you are using the product will depend on what you are treating for. For termites, you will dig a trench around the structure and apply directly to the soil. For pests, such as ants, you will apply topically one foot up and one foot out.

    Q
    Does Dominion 2L Termiticide Concentrate kill ants, roaches, bed bugs, crickets, aphids?
    A

    Dominion 2L Termiticide Concentrate cannot be used inside so is not labeled for bedbugs nor is it labeled for common crickets.  It can be used as a perimeter spray outside around the foundation for ants and roaches or as a systemic soil drench on plants/trees for aphids.  You can review the product label for the list of insects it controls and application instructions.

    Q
    Does Dominion 2L leave a residue on concrete for ants to pick up?
    Our home has a 2' wide concrete apron around most of the perimeter at ground level. The ground apron meets the block foundation. The block foundation extends 18” up from the concrete apron where it meets the siding. So there's really no soil to treat directly in contact with the foundation. We were going to spray Dominion 2L much like one would use Termidor for ant (not termite) control-- 1' up the foundation and 1' out from it and around the door and window frames-- but it looks like imidacloprid only binds to soil/foliage. Would Dominion leave a residue on the concrete foundation/apron or the door frames so that if the ants walked over it, it would eventually transfer back to the ant colony? If so, would this treatment need to be repeated every 30 days or so?
    A
    You are exactly correct in how to apply the product around the foundation of the home and it does leave a residual behind. The longevity of the residual for termite control bonds to the soil for 7 years, but when used as a perimeter spray it will last at least 30 days on concrete/grass to control the ants. They will pick up the product without realizing it and transfer it back through the entire colony.

    Q
    I want to use Dominion 2L on peach trees that have borers and ants. Is this ok?
    Am using on pecans already
    A
    Dominion is not labeled for use on peach trees. We recommend you use a product that is labeled for ant and peach borers and can be used on edible vegetation. Martins Vegetable Plus spray would be a good choice for this type of treatment.

    Q
    Will Dominion 2L kill/deter carpenter bees from my log home?
    I previously purchased Dominion 2L and Delta Dust to treat my log home against carpenter ants and carpenter bees. If I spray Dominion 2L on the fascia of my home will it kill the carpenter bees that are hovering around?
    A

    Dominion 2L is not a detterent, it is a non-repellent. It is not labeled for carpenter bee control. It can be applied a foot up and a foot out directly up against the structure for crawling insects that forage inside the structure and in the soil trench/drilled holes for termite treatment and protection. Delta Dust can be applied to cracks and crevices, voids and the holes that the bees bored in the wood and/or siding. Please apply a liquid insecticide concentrate to the structure's surface for eradication. I have included an article below that I you will find helpful.

  • Asked by Jaime from Vacaville, Ca

    Q
    Can Dominion 2L be mixed with Talstar P?
    A

    Dominion 2L should only be applied to the exterior of the structure for ants, termites, soil drenches etc for listed uses on the product label. It should not be mixed with Talstar P. Talstar P can be applied quarterly to the interior cracks and crevices and exterior listed areas. Dominion 2L is a non-repellent, but Talstar P is not, so mixing together would not be advised.

    Q
    Can I mix in Gamma-Cyhalothrin with Dominion 2L for a perimeter roach spray?
    I have both of these. Or should I spray them separately?
    A

    Dominion 2L is not labeled for a perimeter spray for roaches or other insects except ants and then the listed termite treatments. You can use a gamma-cyhalothrin spray for perimeter roach control, or you could use a combination product such as Temprid FX. Temprid has beta-cyfluthrin and imidacloprid already formulated together, and this is an excellent perimeter spray.
