MAXXTHOR SG 11 LB LAWN GRANULES

 

Maxxthor SG Lawn Granules

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:    Sandy like treated granules designed to last longer in the rain and sun when applied to turf around the home. Once applied, the the active will release slowly over 30-45 days. During this time, dirt dwelling insects will be controlled and eradicated.

TARGET PESTS:    Just about everything including ants, centipedes, fleas, fire ants, millipedes, mole crickets, ticks, springtails, pillbugs, sowbugs, crane flies, turf weevils, webworms, billbugs, chinch bugs and more.

WHERE TO USE IT:    For use around the home in flower beds, grass, pine islands and mulch areas.

RATE OF APPLICATION:    Conveniently packaged in 11 plastic jugs, 1 lb will treat 500-1000 sq/ft. So each jug can treat 5,500 to 11,000 sq/ft.

So lets say you wanted to treat a 10 foot band around your homes perimeter and each side of the home is 50 feet wide. You would need about 1/2 to 1 lb per side.

The rule to follow for the rate is to use 1 lb per 1,000 sq/ft if you are targeting pests in the ground like springtails, grubs or mealybugs.

For large crawling pests like ants, centipedes, ticks or sowbugs, use 2 lbs per 1,000 sq/ft.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD IT BE APPLIED:   This will vary depending on the local weather and pest problem. So for initial infestations, renew the granules once a month until they’re gone. Once the problem is under control, treat once every 3 months to make sure the problem pest does not return.

    Really works!!!!! I had no doubts about this product. Whenever I have any pest problem, I go to BugSpray.com for assistance. Their tech team is knowledgeable and helpful in advising which product to use. I was told that I would see results in two to three days, however I actually saw results within 24 hours. No more mounds of ants in the yard. We are able to camp in peace without these little warriors. I will always use and continue to refer this company to others. Thanks BugSpray.com!!!!!

    I would like to use the Maxxthor granules but concerned if it will have an effect on the dog that likes to run around and roll about on the buffalo lawn.
    Is it safe for pets?

      Personally I just “sprinkle” them out using the container they’re packed in. I used to use my hand spreader but the jug is way easier to use. Pull or push “fertilizer” type spreaders will work too.

    Do springtails carry the maxxthor granules back to their “nest”? I am wondering how the nest is destroyed.

      Kim,

      If you read through our springtail article, you will learn springtails exist everywhere in “pockets”. These serve as “nests” but there is no major location for them. In other words, they exist everywhere so you never get rid of them, your goal is simple: get rid of the pockets on the home, in the home and adjacent to the home.

      That being said, the Maxxthor Granules applied outside will slowly release and seep down into the ground. This will kill off all that are developing in the treated zone. This means no “new” ones can migrate up onto the building.

      After the granules are applied, you need to spray the Maxxthor EC over the top to kill all the ones that are active. This will in turn kill the ones you see. Combined with the granules, you will eventually not see anymore.

      Lastly, if they’re inside, use the Alpine Aerosol for spot treating and the Bithor for the most comprehensive, cost effective treatment.

      If you read our article completely, you’ll see the granules will be needed for long term control. But you’ll also need to spray over the top with the Maxxthor Ec.

      Absolutely. We only sell EPA labeled and registered pesticides. These are products that can prove they are safe enough to be used where people and pets are active without posing a hazard to the people, animals or environment.

      Erica,

      The Psocids and springtails develop in the ground so yes, the granules will help for them around the home. But on the home you’ll need to spray the Maxxthor Sprayer here:

      Maxxthor EC: https://bugspray.com/catalog/insecticide/liquid/maxxthor_ec.html

      And for inside the home, the Bithor or FS MP Aerosol will be needed, maybe both, depending on the level of the problem.

    I’m glad to have the opportunity to review the Bugspray products and customer service. We have only been using their products for about 2-3 weeks, BUT, we are very impressed. Customer service is good, quick and helpful. The Maxxthor EC and granules are definitely helping to eliminate our clover mites. Also, the Bithor and the FS-MP spray. We have had clover mites ever since we moved into our new home in 2016. We have a pest company currently, and had another one. We decided we need to become more pro-active and do something ourselves to help KILL THE CLOVER MITES. I believe with my whole heart, this company and their products is going to be the help we NEED! Thank you, Nancy Carver

    There has been web worms in my locust trees the past few years. Last fall I had someone come out and attach a few things into the tree.. honestly do not know what they attached.. I am not sure if i should wait and see if what they did will keep the web worms out of the tree or go ahead and use something now. Do you have something to use BEFORE there are webs in the tree ?

      If you’re smart, you’ll apply Maxxthor granules around all affected trees now and then spray with our Maxxthor EC. How to use both are in our article here where you can order as well.

    1.5 years ago when we were literally infested with clover mites, and considering MOVING just to get away from them, and our house is new. We are in a very sunny location and in one room it was awful.
    Anyway, they suggested the Maxxthor granules along with 2 other products. Together all 3 of them have eliminated (so far) our clover mite issue.

    They were kind to tell us a schedule to apply treatment and my husband does that faithfully, and it is helping.

    They are quick and very reliable. We are glad we found them, not even our quarterly bug company could rid us from clover mites.

    Thank you very much!

      Lance,

      The act of pressure washing the side of your home will have no direct impact on the granules you apply to the ground. That being said, I’m not entirely sure you asked the right question so you have forced us to speculate.

      We say this because people have been known to add some very caustic actives to their pressure washer tank and these will certainly destroy any pesticide. So if you are adding an agent like bleach or some kind of cleaner, the pressure treatment will render the treatment useless indirectly as the spray runs off the home and onto the granules.

    Excellent for sprintails! I purchased this product after reading the springtail guide on here. I used half of the jug for approx. 2,600 square feet of grass and mulch beds, followed by an immediate spraying of the Maxxthor liquid, as recommended on the guide. For the lawn, I used my Scotts rotary spreader on the lowest setting (literally the lowest setting between the 2 and 15 because the granules are so powdery). For the planted mulch beds, I poured some granules in a paper cup and hand spread them. 4 weeks later, I spread the remaining half of the jug and sprayed again. In between the 4 weeks, I also followed the other recommended steps (dusting voids, spraying the interior and exterior as required). So far, I have gone from seeing dozens of springtail’s inside/thousands outside all over my siding per day to seeing maybe 1-2 per day max, on some days I don’t see a single one. This product has worked very well, it just requires diligent effort on your part to attack the problem from different angles.

    Best for Keeping Springtails under Control! This is the best product I have found for keeping springtails under control. That is not to say that there aren’t some still jumping around on my window sills but the product really cuts the population down. I use it around the foundation every six weeks.

      You can. These granules release very slowly and will only penetrate down a few inches. Additionally it does not work as a systemic so there will be no hazard presented to the tree.

    I have been fighting ground scales for 3 years. I purchased Maxxthor SG and applied 3 times last year. I have several large spots of grass dead. Will I need to apply again this year before re-soding the grass. Would it be better to cultivate dead spots and mix Maxxthor in with the soil before installing sod this spring? I tried to call your number and it’s no good any more. Is their another number? Do I need to use liquid with granular Maxthor? Appreciate any help with my grass. Bill

      So first, our number is active and still the same; 770-985-9388 for local customers and anyone out of state, toll free at 1-800-877-7290. And its working fine, getting calls like normal.

      Second, did you read through our Ground Pearl article? The most important thing to do now is to get your PH right first and the winter is a great time to do this:

      Ground Pearls: https://bugspray.com/ground-pearl-control.html

      After that, spray the soil with the Maxxthor EC before sodding. Let it sit for 1-2 days before resodding and then you should be good using the granules every 1-2 months during the summer/fall following spring treatments.

      Dave,

      The short answer is no. If you want to spray under the porch, get a sprayer like this:
      .
      Hose End: https://bugspray.com/equipment/sprayers/gilmour-20g-390
      .
      And then some liquid Maxthor:
      .
      Maxxthor EC: https://bugspray.com/catalog/insecticide/liquid/maxxthor_ec.html
      .
      The granules can be sprayed our with a Scatterbox Spreader:
      .
      Spreaders: https://bugspray.com/equipment/spreaders/scatterbox-spreader
      .
      Or you can “throw” it out assuming you can reach all corners effectively.
