Suggested Treatment
| Sonar Liquid | 1.5 Quart Sonar per surface acre, dilute with water to provide coverage, spray evenly over surface of water. If the watermeal is covering the entire surface, it will be necessary to inject the Sonar below the surface of the Watermeal so that it gets into the water before it evaporates. If you have any questions on this procedure, please give us a call at 1 800 365-0224
