Spray infested areas and areas likely to be infested, such as wood

surfaces, voids and channels in damaged wood, spaces between

wooden parts of structure, and between wood and foundations where

infestation is likely to occur. Also spray around fence posts, wood piles

(do not use on firewood) and tree stumps.
Suitable protective clothing should be worn in confined or overhead

areas to prevent exposure to eyes and skin. The use of eye protection,

protective head covering, chemical resistant gloves and footwear, a

long-sleeved shirt and long pants or coveralls are recommended. Do

not permit contact with treated surfaces until spray has dried. Treated

confined areas, such as detached garages, under porches and decks,

should be ventilated during and immediately following application

before the areas are re-occupied.
For carpenter ants, spray around doors and windows and other

places where ants may enter or crawl and hide. Also treat cracks and

crevices or openings into wall voids or other areas where these ants

may be present.
For carpenter bees, spray or inject into holes and tunnels already

made by the bees with a tank sprayer, and spray areas where they

are beginning to build tunnels into the wood.
