Master Label, October 31, 2008 EPA Reg. No. 64240-_

Combat Ant Killing Gel F42 Pg 3 of 9

It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

GENERAL INFORMATION

This product provides fast control of [Carpenter] Ants in 3-5 days. This product is formulated to effectively control [Carpenter] Ants. That's because this product contains Fipronil, a fast-acting active ingredient. Its speed is still slow enough[, however,] for foraging ants to return to the qolony and feed the bait to larvae and queen(s) so that the entire colony is killed [through the Domino EffectTM].

[When exposed to higher temperatures [above 80°F] [above 100°F] for extended periods Of time, the gel may change color.] , . [FOR CONSUMER USE ONLY] . [SPANISH INSTRUCTIONS INSIDE BOX]

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

[This package [insert] should be in possession of applicator.] Application rate is dependant on level of infestation and species to be controlled. Bait should be applied as spots.

Keep exposed gel away from open foods and food contact surfaces.

1. Inspect for ants: Place gel in areas of suspected ant activity, next to ant trails and near ant nests. Avoid applying gel in direct sunlight.
