Not familar with this. Does it take a whole sack to treat the yard? I get my ant poision free from the "Bug" guy that comes sprays the house.

MY Sister told me she got her whole neighborhood [~20 acres] to all pay to treat all the yards at one time. She said this treatment would have to done again in 6 months..... then once a year after that.

When the product is applied, it did not require ever part of each yard to be covered. Missing some small areas was ok. LSU Ag Department has spreaders that can be pulled behind a 4-wheeler for doing this. I don't remember what the chemical was called, but do remember her telling me that it only had a 48 hour shelf life and she got it from a place in the New Roads, LA area.

Cost per treatment was ~ $15 per acre.
