Josh from Houston, Tx writes

Can you apply Bifen XTS directly to flowers and palm trees to kill ants if the temp is under 85 degrees?

I assume it is ok for the outside temp to be over 85 once the Bifan dries? We have very small black ants (Houston area) that crawl on the flowers which eat holes and turn the buds black. They eventually kill the plants and the plant food with insect killer has not stopped them. Our flowers are freshly planted if that raises a concern.

Answer:

Bifen XTS should not harm plants when applied at cooler times of the day. It would be better to use a product like Dominion 2L which will not harm flowers and will be transferred back to the ant colony.
