While Phos-Chek can be applied within hours of a wildfire reaching your home, it is best used as a pre-treatment before a wildfire begins. Therefore, it is best to apply Phos-Chek at the start of fire season, where it will remain effective throughout the entire fire season so long as the weather remains dry. Rainfall of 1/4\" or more will wash Phos-Chek off the treated vegetation and it becomes a fertilizer.
