What is the maximum area considered to be a spot treatment?

The correct maximum area for a spot treatment is 2 square feet. Spot treatments are typically used in pest control to target specific areas where pests are prevalent rather than treating a large area. This approach minimizes chemical use and reduces the risk of pest resistance while effectively addressing localized infestations.

Choosing 2 square feet aligns with common industry standards for what constitutes a manageable and effective spot treatment size, ensuring that the treatment remains concentrated and effective. In the context of pest management regulations, this allows for effective targeting without risking overspray or unintended effects on non-targeted areas.
