Is this the right Bayer?

The "rain proof 1 hour after application" concerns me.

Same one I got and it worked fine for me.

What's your dip mixing protocol/procedure?

I have personally seen some flat worms survive a dip. I've upped my dose to 10 ml per cup and dip for about 7-10 min.

Has that helped and did you see any I'll effects? Do you use the same bayer? As far as the rain proof for 1 hour thing, that makes me feel like there will still be bayer left on the frag when I put it back into the tank.

You dip in tank water after dipping right?

Most of the time I up the dose and dip for 10 mins too but just showing op what was recommended.

It's rainproof after one hour, so if it rains/gets wet within an hour of application it will wash away, but if you let it dry on your lawn for an hour(what it's originally intended for) its effects should last even through rain storms for the next 3 months or so.

Oh I'm stupid, I thought it said rain proof for 1 hr after application. Complete misread. Thanks
