Stop The Bites®! Treatment Areas and Applications
Used in outdoor fogging and misting spray applications, Stop The Bites®! effectively kills ticks and mosquitoes in 24 hours or less.
Six ounces of Stop The Bites®! solution is mixed with a gallon of water for use in treating 3,000 to 7,500 square feet, with vegetative density determining how much solution is required to treat a given space. For heavy pest infestation, as much as 12 to 16 ounces of Stop The Bites®! solution may be mixed with a gallon of water. This product is applied using hand-held, hose-end or backpack sprayers.
Stop The Bites®! can be sprayed under shrubs, wood piles, leafy areas and other shaded and moist places. It may be applied to trees, including up and under tree leaves, where adult ticks and mosquitoes hide during the day. It may also be applied to harborage areas, including shrubbery and vegetation, where ticks and mosquitoes may rest.
Stop The Bites®! may be applied to swing sets, patios, eaves, windows, doorways, porches, porch lights and around utility boxes without any discoloration.
Shrubbery and vegetation in the vicinity of stagnant pools of water, marshy areas, pools and shorelines can also be treated using Stop The Bites®! This natural tick spray should not be applied on the surface of ponds, lakes, rivers or other bodies of water, however. It should also not be applied on food-bearing plants and trees or on food contact surfaces such as on fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds.
Once applied, it is recommended not to allow people or animals to enter treated areas until the Stop The Bites®! solution has completely dried.
