Is this talking about the size of the sprayer? If I am applying .5oz/gal/1000sqft of permethrin SFR to my lawn, then a 4 gallon sprayer will cover 4000sqft - right?
You don't state what pest you are treating for in your lawn however, when using Permethring SFR 36.8% in your lawn the most common rate used would be .8 oz per gallon of water per 1000 sq. ft. When it states using 4-25 gallons of spray volume, it is telling you to be sure that you are getting a complete coverage for the area that you are treating. So if it takes you 1 gallon of water to treat the 1000 sq. ft evenly then you would use the .8 in 1 gallon. Should it take you 2.5 gallons you would use the .8oz in 2.5 gallons of water to cover that 1000 sq. ft evenly.
