Directions
Apply when tunnels or cone shaped mounds appear in soil from early spring
to late fall. To determine if tunnels are active, flatten tunnels and
examine in 24-48 hours. Active tunnels will reappear and should be re-flattened
after Chase is applied. As moles begin to react to Chase, increased tunneling
activity may even be noted.
While you can apply Chase evenly by hand, you may also use either a broadcast
or drop spreader. The correct application rate, regardless of method,
is one pound of Chase per one thousand square feet. To initially set spreader,
select a setting in the lower range of application rate. Then test setting
by using one of these methods: The first is to put one-half pound of Chase
in spreader and apply to an area that is 500 square feet square (approximately
7x7 normal walking paces). Readjust as necessary to reach the desired
rate.
Treating
Large Areas
While you can apply Chase to your entire yard in one treatment, another
strategy that has proved to be effective is to “move” the
moles in the direction you’d like them to exit your property. To
accomplish that, apply Chase to one-third of the area to be treated, beginning
with the one furthest from the direction you want them to leave. If you
want pests to move from your flower garden toward a fence, begin at the
garden. Then (at one or two day intervals), Apply the product to the other
areas closer to the fence, ending with the one nearest to it. This approach
is particularly effective when the area to be treated larger than 100’
x 100’.
Watering
After Application
You can water Chase in to speed its penetration into the soil, or you
can let Mother Nature do it with the next rain. Over time the granule
will decompose and release the repellent into the soil for a “time
released” treatment. In addition, the carrier used in the product
is an all-natural and fully biodegradable material
