2. Setup u Preparazzjoni
Before application, identify areas with standing water where mosquito larvae are present or likely to occur. This product is designed for use in non-potable water sources.
2.1 Application for Mosquito Larvae Control
For mosquito larvae control, sprinkle one teaspoon of Mosquito Bits per 25 square feet of water surface, or one tablespoon per 75 square feet. For larger areas, use 1/2 lb per 2178 square feet. Apply uniformly over the surface of the containerized standing water.
2.2 Application for Fungus Gnat Larvae Control
For fungus gnat larvae control, sprinkle or spread the granules over the soil surface of affected plants until the area is covered. Water the plants after application; the water will release the active ingredient (Bti) into the soil, where it will target and eliminate fungus gnat larvae.

4. Maintenance and Reapplication
For continuous control of mosquito larvae, reapply Mosquito Bits every 7 to 14 days. Longer periods of mosquito suppression may be achieved with the subsequent use of Mosquito Dunks®.
