brand name?

Just look for stuff with Permethrin in it. Sawyer
(http://www.benmeadows.com/store/prod...p?dept_id=6456) is
one brand, but I haven't tried it.

If it's permethrin, look for Davis Kill-A-Bug in the 2lb per gallon
formula (2E?) at most ag/feed-type stores. It should be about 10.00USD
for an 8 oz. bottle __OF CONCENTRATE__ -DO NOT USE IT OUT OF THE BOTTLE
ON ANYTHING- and that will make enough up to do you, the house, the
yard, etc. Just for a cost idea, if I remember correctly, and assume I
do not, it's a .50 to 1% mix rate (i.e., .64 to 1.28 oz. to 1 US Gallon
of water), BUT READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. It's made by Louisiana Chemical
in Baton Rouge, if that helps.
