Lloyd says
Is this product safe for garden use (vegetable garden)?
Tech Support says
Lloyd,
You can apply it around plants in the garden; it only works if insects ingests it so there is no hazard that can be transferred from the bait to the plants, veggies, etc. when used in such areas.

How often do I need to apy this product per year. The other abathor ant bait stated every 20 to 40 days is this the same?
Tech Support says
Eric,
Definitely not the same.

With Fireants, we have found a treatment will last at least a month so if you wanted to, treating that frequently is fine. But the label allows you to treat as needed so if there was no activity, you could wait it out for another month.
.
Over the years we’ve found the spring and fall to be the worse times for these species so I would recommend every 30 days to start the year for 3 treatments. Then go at least one cycle of 60 days and if you’re good after 60 days, still bait but go another 60 days. As you get to Sept-Oct, finish the year with 2 applications within 30 days.
