Example Calculations
Common dilution scenarios

Example 1: Suspend SC (4.75% AI)

To make 1 gallon of 0.05% solution:

Product AI: 4.75%
Desired: 0.05%
Total: 1 gal
Result: 0.01 gal product + 0.99 gal water

Example 2: Termidor SC (9.1% AI)

To make 1 gallon of 0.06% solution:

Product AI: 9.1%
Desired: 0.06%
Total: 1 gal
Result: 0.01 gal product + 0.99 gal water
Quick Tips
