Maxforce FC Fire Ant Bait Now Available in Two Convenient Sizes

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. – Bayer announced the availability of Maxforce® FC Fire Ant Bait in two convenient package sizes: 2-pound plastic jugs and a 10-pound re-sealable bag that is easy to handle. Pest management professionals (PMPs) can now provide their customers with quick, long-term control of fire ants with Maxforce FC Fire Ant Bait’s proven bait matrix and the power of fipronil.

“We’re pleased to offer two convenient package sizes of Maxforce FC Fire Ant Bait to help PMPs tackle fire ant infestations of any size,” says Gordon Morrison, Maxforce Insecticides Market Manager for Bayer. “The cost-effective, easy-to-use granules can be broadcast at a rate of 1.5 to 5 pounds per acre or applied as a mound treatment at a rate of 2 to 5 tablespoons per mound, allowing PMPs to use minimal bait and still get maximum results.”

Labeled for broadcast and mound treatments, Maxforce FC Fire Ant Bait can be applied to home lawns, golf courses, sod farms, commercial and recreational turf, and landscape beds. And because the bait features the Domino EffectTM, a delayed action kill whereby fire ants share the active ingredient throughout the colony, Maxforce FC Fire Ant Bait can be used to target mounds in hard-to-reach areas, such as under sidewalks and driveways.
