Sumitomo Synergy Pro Ant Bait Hydramethylnon Pyriproxyfen

Synergy Pro Ant Bait provides control of a wide range of ants (sugar, protein and oil feeders) and remains attractive as feeding preferences change through the year. A significant drop in ant population can be expected a couple of weeks after application (Hydramethylnon effect) with complete control in around two months (Pyriproxyfen effect).

APPLICATION INFORMATION ----------

Important – due to the food granules contained in Synergy Pro, it must be used within 3 months of breaching the container.
Synergy Pro Ant Bait may be laid utilising either handheld spreaders, spreaders attached to motor vehicles or aerial applications.
All spreading equipment should be calibrated on a regular basis to ensure that the permitted rate per hectare is achieved and not exceeded.
Synergy Pro Ant Bait should be applied in the early spring or summer at the first sign of ant activity.
Application is most effective when ants are actively foraging.
Avoid application if rain is expected within 6 hours.
Do not water treated areas for at least 24 hours after application.


RESTRAINTS ----------

Do not apply via hand dispersion methods (ie spreading using your hands). (Note – The 500gm shaker pack has a dual-action for easy application either for broadcast treatments or a pouring spout for ant mound and targeted applications.)

Do not apply directly to water.
For ground applications, do not apply within 8m of water.

Do not apply within 20m of water when applying by aerial application. Turn off/close the granular applicator during aerial application when over, or within 20m, of water.

Do not apply as a preventative measure for ant control.

Do not apply if rain is expected within 24 hours of application.

Do not apply more than two applications per year with at least a 4-week interval

GENERAL APPLCIATION RATE -----------
The general application rate is 2-4 kg per hectare. (20-40gm per 100m2)


SITUATION:

Domestic And Public Service Areas, Commercial And Industrial Areas, Forests And Non-Crop Areas. (Including gardens, golf courses, lawns, parks, turf, sports grounds, plant nurseries)

PEST:

Nuisance and tramp ants such as Red Imported Fire Ant (Solenopsisinvicta), Tropical Fire Ant (Solenopsisgeminata), Bigheaded Ant (Coastal Brown Ant) (Pheidole spp.), Argentine Ant (Linepithemahumile), Yellow Crazy Ant (Anoplolepisgracilipes), Black Ants (Iridomyrmex and Ochetellus spp.), Electric Ant (Wassmanniaauropunctata), Singapore Ant (Monomorium destructor) and other Monomorium spp. Pony Ants (incl. Green Ants) (Rhytidoponera spp.), Meat Ants* (Iridomyrmex spp.), Tyrant Ants (Iridomyrmex spp.), Green Tree Ants (Oecophyllasmaragdina), Longlegged Ants (Paratrechina spp.), Sugar Ants (Camponotus spp.) & Pennant Ants (Tetramorium spp.)

RATE:

2-4 kg per hectare. (20-40gm per 100m2)

CRITICAL COMMENTS:

Bait may be laid utilising either handheld spreaders, spreaders attached to motor vehicles or aerial application.

All spreading equipment should be calibrated on a regular basis to ensure that the permitted rate per hectare is achieved and not exceeded.

In Tropical regions and for very dense infestations, a higher rate of 4kg may be required.

A second application may be required 4-8 weeks following the initial application to ensure all colonies receive an adequate dose.

Do not apply within 8 m of waterways when using ground-based equipment, or within 80 m of waterways when applying from aircraft.

Important – due to the food granules contained in Synergy Pro, it must be used within 3 months of breaching the container.

Rates are a general guide only. Before opening, carefully read Synergy Pro Ant Bait directions for use, precautionary and protection statements, storage and disposal, safety directions and first aid instructions.

Do not contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the product or used containers.

Pyriproxyfen is highly toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates.

Do not apply Synergy Pro Ant Bait from application equipment or under meteorological conditions that favour the direct entry of Synergy Pro Ant Bait into water or areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high watermark.
Run-off from treated areas may be harmful to aquatic life in neighbouring areas.

Do not apply in buffer zones surrounding treatment areas.

Avoid exposure to terrestrial arthropods such as land crabs.

Apply only in areas of high density with zero or low crab density.

Do not apply more than one application per year to areas where land crabs may occur.


STORAGE -----------

Store in the closed original container, in a dry, cool well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight.


SAFETY DIRECTIONS ----------
