The use of low, medium, medium-high and high rates is based on the professional judgement of the applicator as to what constitutes a low, medium or high infestation. Higher rates tend to provide a longer residual and control of more difficult-to-control insects. See Target Pests table for additional information in choosing the amount of product to apply.
