    Q
    Rained after application
    I put this product down and it rained 6 hours later. We sre in Houston and it rains almost every day. Do I need to reapply or wait the 21 days? Will it still be effective?
    A
    The area should be irrigated after applying Hi-Yield Improved Slug & Snail Bait, for best results.  The product label advises not to water the area for 48 hours after an application, so you may want to reapply the product if it rained within 6 hours of the initial product application.  However, you may contact the manufacturer directly for confirmation at (855) 270-4776, or by emailing consumersupport@fertilome.com.
