schema.org/HowTo
01
Choose an EPA-exempt product if you want a 'natural' option, but expect modest results.
02
Apply more frequently than synthetic products - every few weeks.
03
Focus on lawn-to-woods edge, not the entire lawn.
04
Treat as an adjunct to yard hygiene, not a replacement for acaricide where pressure is high.
