    Q
    Can I spray plants during temps of 90 degrees f or more in the summer with Bifen IT ?
    I have spider mites in my dessert rose . Can I spray w/ Bifen in the summer / w/ temp 90 degrees ?
    A

    You can spray plants with Bifen IT on days with high temps but you should refrain from spraying during the heat of the day. Instead, restrict applications to very early morning or late evening. This will prevent the sun rays from scorching the plants while they are still wet.

    Q
    Does Bifen IT work well for clover mites?
    I have tons of little red bugs (I'm assuming are clover mites) all over my wooden patio fence and furniture. Will this work to get rid of them?
    A

    Bifen IT is labeled to treat for clover mites when used accordingly. Clover mites are barely smaller than a pinhead. You may notice clover mites as dark red moving specks which occur in large numbers. They are generally found crawling aroudn doors, windows, sidings, curtains, or furniture. Be sure to treat the ground at least 5-10 feet from the structure where you are seeing the clover mites.

  • Asked by Carol from Tarpon Springs, Fl
    10/15/2016
    Q
    Can too much water be used in applying Bifen?
    I have a severe infestation of chinch bugs in my 1500 sf St. Augustine lawn. I sprayed at 1 oz per gallon and then handwatered in. I am concerned that I applied too much water...how do you know that the product is not being diluted too much? Also if I sprayed 3 days ago can I water in fertilizer now without making the Bifen less effective?
    A

    As long as Bifen IT was applied as directed on the label and watered in as required for chinch bugs (at least 0.25 inch of irrigation) after application, you can go ahead and water in the fertilizer.  It will not move much farther into the soil as it is designed to bind to the soil. If more water was used that would just have pushed it down into the soil better and will be fine.

    Q

    A

    Bifen IT and Demand CS have very similar active ingredients, so it would not be of any benefit to mix these two products together. If you would like to tell us more about what pest you are treating and where, then we are happy to give you further advice on your treatment.

  • Asked by Kevin
    08/24/2017
    Q
    How long should I wait for dethatching after applying Bifen IT for chinch bugs?
    I plan to dethatch about 3 or 4 days after applying Bifen IT for Chinch Bugs. Will that make it less effective? I'm doing a 2nd application in about 2 weeks. Also, can it be watered into the lawn the day after or later? I used a hose end sprayer.
    A

    You should dethatch first and then treat with Bifen IT for increased effectiveness. You should water in the product after application to reach the areas they feed.

    Q
    Will Bifen IT damage my cannabis plants?

    Bifen IT is not labeled for use on cannabis.  It likely would not harm them, as it is known for being gentle on plants, but it would not be safe to apply to anything that would be consumed in any way.

    Q
    Will Bifen IT kill sugar ants?
    A

    Bifen I/T can be used to spray around the homes foundation and in the yard for most species of ants. All ants are sugar ants (they all feed on sugars and proteins) so we couldnt say for certain how well it will work for your specific situation without knowing the exact ant species. You can review our ant control guide below to see tips on inspection and prevention as well as product suggestions that may be more suited to your needs.

  • Asked by Lauren from Riverton, Utah
    02/18/2018
    Q
    Will Bifen IT help with clover mites?
    We have clover mites in our windows inside and outside. There are no plants near these windows and they are not low to the ground (near grass). We have tried peppermint and also had the bug guy come out three separate occasions. The bugs die but always come back. Will Bifen IT help get rid of them and how many times would we need to spray? We also have dogs in the house is this spray harmful to them?
    A

    Bifen IT can be used to kill clover mites and will leave a residual of up to 30 days outside.  It will not repel them from the area but instead will continue to kill those that contact a treated surface after application.  We have a guide here with more information on treating and preventing this pest.  Pets need to be kept out of the area while products are being applied but can return once all surfaces are dry.

    Will it harm the cattle (including a pet bottle calf and 1 pet sheep) to ingest Bifen IT?
