- HOW TO USE THE GIANT DESTROYER:
1. Find main runway and clear one opening for easy cartridge insertion.
Make sure all other openings are sealed.
2. Insert fuse firmly into cartridge and making sure to leave two
inches of fuse exposed.
3. Light fuse and insert cartridge into runway opening. Minimum fuse
burning time: 5 seconds.
4. When cartridge begins to smoke, cover opening completely with
dirt.
5. USE ONLY INSIDE BURROW, NEVER INSIDE OF
BUILDING
MOLES
Locate the main runway, look for fresh conical mounds of dirt. Select
the freshest of these, remove plug and dig in direction of main runway.
If lateral to the mound is plugged, either dig past the plug or probe
ground around the plug to locate main runway. Main runway will be found
when probe meets little or no resistance. When runway is found, prepare
an opening into runway large enough so that cartridge can be inserted
easily. Collect sufficient dirt and other material for closing hole.
Light fuse and insert cartridge into hole fuse-end -first. Cover cartridge
quickly, but take care not to smother it with dirt. Quickly close any
holes where gas escapes. If your excavations have divided main runway
into sections, treat each portion.
POCKET GOPHERS:
Locate fan-shaped mounds with signs of recent gopher activity. Find
the horseshoe-shaped depression on one side of the mound. To locate
the main runway, probe ground 15-18 inches from mound on the same side
as the depression. The main runway has been located when ground friction
on the probe has been released. Dig down to main runway, taking care
not to block it off with dirt. Create an opening large enough for easy
insertion of the cartridge. Collect enough dirt and other material to
close opening. Light fuse and insert fuse-end-first. Immediately cover
opening, taking care not to smother cartridge with loose dirt. Cover
any openings where gasses escape. Treat all active mounds.
WOOD CHUCKS:
Locate all burrow entrances. Select one for use and close all other
entrances with rock and dirt. Light fuse and insert cartridge fuse-end-first.
Cover with rock and dirt, being careful not to smother cartridge with
dirt. Consult state game laws before using this product for woodchuck
control.
NORWAY RAT:
Use only where burrows are isolated from homes,barns, and all other
man-made stuctures. DO NOT USE inside buildings or anywhere where gasses
could enter buildings. Collect plenty of dirt and other materials for
closing burrow openings. Treat each burrow opening by lighting fuse
and inserting cartridge fuse-end-first into the hole.(make sure hole
is large enough for easy insertion before lighting fuse.) Cover hole
immediately,taking care not to smother cartridge with loose dirt. Immediately
cover all other openings from which gas escapes. Proceed to next closest
burrow and treat as above.
GROUND SQUIRRELS:
Collect plenty of dirt and other material for closing burrow openings.
Treat each burrow opening by lighting fuse and inserting cartridge fuse-end-first
into hole. (Make sure hole is large enough for easy insertion before
lighting fuse.) Cover hole immediately,taking care not to smother cartridge
with loose dirt. Immediately cover all other openings from which gas
escapes. Proceed to the next closest open burrow and treat as above.
SKUNKS:
Locate all entrances to den. Do not treat dens under inhabited structures
or buildings where toxic gasses could reach humans, pets,or domestic
animals including livestock. Openings to den should be large enough
to permit easy insertion of cartridge. Close any openings to den other
than the one to be treated. Collect material for closing treated opening.
Dirt, sod,and a large rock may serve this purpose. Light fuse and insert
cartridge fuse-end-first. Close opening, being careful not to cover
cartridge with dirt. Close any previously undetected openings where
gas escapes.
