READ ALL PRECAUTIONS ON ~CR SIDE OF PACRAGE BEFORE USING THI S PRODUCT.
DIRECTIONS FOR USB It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
USE RESTRICTIONS: Only use inside of burrows and never inside of buildings.
POCKET GOP HERr. and MOLES: Burrow Preparation - In order for gas producing cartridges to be effective on the pest species, a sufficient concentration of gas over a period of time must be retained in the burrow system_ Damp soil tends to retain toxic gasses within a burrow system better than does dry soil, and hence may increase the degree of control.
Pocket gophers and moles produce different types of burrows. Both, however, dig their most used runways (burrows) at a deeper level than the shallow runways (burrows) used for feeding purposes, which may not be reused on a regular basis, if at all. Short lateral runways connecting the deeper burrows with the surface of the ground may ~lso be used for only short periods when soil is being excavated from runways. It is natural for pocket gophers and moles to plug the lateral runways and feeding runways with soil. SUch soil plugs preclude the toxic gasses from reaching the animal.
For best results with any toxic gas, it must be released in the deeper, more frequently used runways and in a sufficient number of locations within the burrow system to assure that a lethal concentration of gas reaches the pest animal.
Locating the main runway necessitates the use of a sharpened broom handle or metal probe which can be pushed perpendicularly into the soil somewhere midway between two fresh earth mounds. Connecting runways between mounds generally can be found at depths of 8 to 12 inches below the soil surface and are detectable by the sudden give felt on the probe because of the lack of soil friction as it enters the runway.
With the main runway located, a shovel or trowel may be used to dig down the runway and clear away the loose soil.
Burrow Treatment Before Lighting Fuse: into opening and make to close burrows.
Insure that cartridge will pass ~~~~ly sure that enough material is on hand .. .

Hold a DEXOL GOPHER GASSER(R) cartridge away from your body and light the fuse (minimum fuse burn time is 5 seconds). DO NOT INHALE THE TOXIC FUMES. When lit, carefully insert the cartridge, fuse-end first, into one side of the open runway.
Immediately plug the opening with a board or a shovelful of sod, tamp tightly with soil to prevent gasses from escaping. If smoke is seen escaping from other holes, plug them firmly with soil.
After the first cartridge has burned to completion (approximately 5 minutes), from 1 to 3 additional cartridges should be used following the same procedures as previously described but in different portions of the burrow system. Generally, cartridges need not be inserted closer than 8 feet apart.
Should fresh mounds reappear after approximately 5 days, the gassing process should be repeated. New animals frequently take over vacant burrow systems.
- ------,
GROUND SQUIRRELS: Collect plenty of dirt and other material for closing burrow openings. Treat each burrow opening by lighting fuse (minimum fuse burn time is 5 seconds) and inserting cartridge fuse end first into hole. (Make sure hole is large enough for easy insertion before lighting fuse). Cover hole immediately, taking care not to smother cartridge with loose dirt. lmmediately cover all other openings from which gas excapes. Proceed to the next closest burrow and treat as above.
STORAGE & DISPOSAL Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal. STORAGE: Store in cool, dry place away from fire, heat and direct sunlight.
