    Q
    Can Alpine WSG kill no-see-ums?
    I've been having a problem with no CMS for 8 months and can't find anything to kill them
    A
    Alpine WSG is not labeled for noseeums/gnats.  We would recommend using Talstar P. It is a very good general insecticide that is labeled for noseeums. This can be broadcast across your lawn, sprayed on bushes, trees, flowers, etc. It should not be sprayed on water or any type of edible. You can use Talstar P as a broadcast spray over your lawn, sprayed on bushes, trees, flowers, etc. It should not be sprayed on water or any type of edible. You want to concentrate on areas where see a lot of activity. Talstar P will not keep new gnats away, but it should eliminate the gnats that land of the treated surface.

    Q
    Can I mop with Alpine WSG and use it as a broadcast application?
    Can I use this with a spray mop? I have fleas and need to do a broadcast application on the floor with an even layer. I have one of those spray mops that has a built in bottle that hold at least half a gallon of water.
    A
    Alpine WSG should not be used as a mop solution.  It is mixed with water and applied with a pump sprayer as directed on the product label.  For fleas the product label states: Apply to infested areas or potentiallly infested areas, such as rugs, floors, carpets, upholstered furniture, pet beds and pet resting areas.  When applying to upholstered furniture, treat under cushions and areas where flea development can occur.

    Q
    Can Alpine WSG be mixed with ExciteR for roaches?
    A

    Alpine WSG can be mixed with a synergist such as ExciteR Insecticide but it is not generally recommended. ExciteR kills on contact while Alpine WSG leaves a non repellent residual that they take back with them. If you kill them too soon they will not have a chance to take it back with them

    Q
    Is it safe to put alpine wsg on my windowsill?
    I read we should spray cracks by windows as well as that can be an entry point. My cats like sitting on the sill so I wasn't sure if this would be safe for the cats. Of course I would wait to let them in after it dried (probably at least 6hrs maybe even a full day) but I was just curious if once it dried it would be a problem for them to be there.
    A
    Yes, you may spray Alpine WSG on the windowsill. Just keep your pets out of the area while applying & they may return once the product has dried. Once dry, the product will not reactivate

  • Asked by Gennaro from Ardsley Ny
    02/13/2023
    Q
    Why I see more riches activity after 2 days after applied Alpine WSG?
    A

    If you are noticing more roach activity than usual, it is because immediately after beginning treatments, they will try to escape from the chemicals that are killing them. When applying insecticides such as Alpine WSG, the knockdown rate will be depend on how long the insect stayed on a treated surface and the age and health of the insects. In most cases, you can expect death in 24-72 hours.

    Q
    How soon after an application of Alpine WSG (for german cockroaches) can the kitchen/basedboards be cleaned?
    I'd like to clean my very dusty house and vacuuming is not quite enough to fully clean the crumbs or other food remnants that are left from normal use in the kitchen.
    A

    Normal cleaning practices in your home are fine after applying Alpine WSG however we recommend refraining from directly applying cleaning products to the treated areas as the residual could be removed. If treating for German Roaches, repeat applications of Alpine WSG should be reapplied every 14 days as well as replacing roach bait placements. Also, if you are not also using an insect growth regulator to interupt the reproduction cycle, this is recommended especially for German Roaches. 

    Please view our Roach Control Kits and our How to Get Rid of Roaches Treatment Guide for more information on a successful treatment program.
