How much Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin do I mix to 25 gals for fire ants?

Answer:

Per the product label: Mix 1.6 fluid ozs. (3 1/4 Tablespoons) of Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin per 1 gallon of spray solution to make a 0.5% spray emulsion. {1 fluid oz. = 2 Tablespoons (T) = 6 teaspoons (tsp.)}. For large Ant mounds, such as Fire Ant mounds, apply 1-2 gallons of a 0.5% emulsion to each mound area including a 4-foot diameter circle around the mound. Apply to smaller mounds until the mound is completely saturated. Use higher water volume for mounds larger than 12”. For best results treat in early morning or late evening hours, but not in the heat of the day For broadcasting: Prepare an emulsion by mixing 0.4 to 0.8 fluid ozs. (2 1/2 to 5 teaspoons) of this product in sufficient volume of water to cover 1,000 sq. ft. (approximately 4 to 25 gallons of water). {1 fluid oz. = 2 Tablespoons (T) = 6 teaspoons (tsp.).
