First: General Application Rates

A – Preparing the Solution by Diluting the Product or Part of It

The general recommendation for application according to the pesticide label is to use concentrations ranging from 0.4% to 0.8%, meaning 400 ml to 800 ml of Agenda pesticide should be diluted in 100 liters of water.

In other words:

• One liter of Agenda can be diluted in 125 to 250 liters of water.

B – Preparing the Solution Based on the Active Ingredient

Use concentrations ranging from 0.01% to 0.02% of the active ingredient (Fipronil).

C – Choosing the Appropriate Concentration

• The standard recommended concentration under normal conditions is 0.01% active ingredient,
  which equals 400 ml of Agenda per 100 liters of water,
  or 1 liter of Agenda per 250 liters of water.

• In cases of heavy infestation or when a high risk is expected, the concentration may be increased up to 0.02%,
  i.e. 800 ml of Agenda per 100 liters of water,
  or 1 liter of Agenda per 125 liters of water.

Second: Preparation of Agenda EC 25 Solution

A – Calculating the Required Amount of Agenda

• Each 1-liter bottle of Agenda EC 25 can be diluted in 125 to 250 liters of water.

• A common dilution ratio is 1 liter of Agenda : 250 liters of water, recommended in the following cases:

1- Vertical Treatment

• General rate:
  5 liters of final solution per linear meter at 30 cm depth and 30 cm width.

• Example:
  If the perimeter of the house/building is 60 linear meters:

  🔹 Final solution needed = 60 × 5 = 300 liters of solution
  🔹 Agenda required = 0.4 liters per 100 liters of water
  🔹 So: 0.4 × 3 = 1.2 liters of Agenda

2- Horizontal Treatment

• Usually applied before construction by spraying Agenda on the soil surface before concrete is poured.

• General rate:
  5 liters of final solution per square meter of soil surface.

• Example:
  If the total surface area of the building is 300 square meters:

  🔹 Final solution needed = 300 × 5 = 1500 liters of solution
  🔹 Agenda required = 0.4 liters per 100 liters of water
  🔹 So: 0.4 × 15 = 6 liters of Agenda EC 25

B – Steps to Prepare the Final Solution

1. Fill the spray unit tank with half to three-quarters of the required water volume.

2. Calculate the required amount of Agenda pesticide.

3. Add Agenda to the tank while stirring continuously.

4. Add the remaining amount of water with continued stirring, then seal the tank.

5. Begin spraying the target areas.

Notes on Solution Volume:

• Under normal conditions:
  Use 5 liters of final solution per linear meter (30 cm deep) or per square meter.

• In some cases, the soil may not absorb this amount of solution due to saturation or other conditions.

• In such cases:
  Prepare the solution at double concentration (0.02%),
  and apply half the volume, i.e. 2.5 liters per linear meter or square meter instead of 5 liters.
