Most concentrates are diluted with water and applied with a hose‑end, pump sprayer, or similar applicator. For foliar treatments, wet leaves thoroughly (including undersides) until runoff. For soil/root treatments, add the concentrate during regular watering or apply as a soil drench. Use the product’s mixing method (hose‑end attachment or mix‑with‑water concentrate) specified on the label.

Products come either ready‑to‑use (pre‑mixed sprays) or as dilutable concentrates. Dilutable formats include hose‑end concentrates that attach to a hose and mix with water, and mix‑with‑water concentrates intended for pump sprayers. Listings commonly note whether an item is ready‑to‑use or requires dilution.

Some concentrates are formulated specifically for soil or root‑zone control and target larvae and other below‑ground pests. These products are applied during regular watering or as a drench to reach the root zone and disrupt pest life cycles.

Coverage and residual vary by product and formulation. Across products, maximum coverage claims range roughly from 100 sq ft up to about 12,000 sq ft, while labeled residual or treatment duration spans from about 2 weeks up to 18 months depending on the formulation and label instructions.
