    Q
    Can I use Bifen IT on the rafters of my pool enclosure to prevent spider webs from forming?
    A

    Bifen IT would not prevent spiders from forming webs but would help to kill spiders or other insects that contact a treated surface long enough to receive a lethal dose.  To prevent spider webs it would be better to use a product like Web Out.

    Q
    Is it safe for me to use Bifen IT for roach control around my chicken coop without harming my chickens?
    I have a roach infestation problem around my chicken coop. Will it be safe for me to use the Bifen IT for roach control without worrying about the chickens getting sick or injured when they eat roaches that have been treated with the product?
    A

    Bifen IT is labeled to treat for insects in Poultry Houses. Be sure to review the product label prior to treatment. You must make sure your chickens are out of the area while you apply Bifen and then they can return to the area as soon as it is dry.

    Q
    Can I mix Bifen IT with Amine 24D in a sprayer?
    I used Bifen IT last year and it worked great. Only had to spray it one time. This year I mixed it with 2-4-D to avoid having to spray twice. I mixed it in a 20 gal sprayer and both products didn't seem to do as good a job when mixed together.
    A

    Yes, you can mix Bifen IT and Amine 2,4-d can be mixed in the same tank and sprayed. It is recommended that you do a small tank mixture to ensure there is no clumping between the two products. The effectiveness of the products should not be affected if you mix the two together.

  • Asked by Angela from Prattville, Al
    08/19/2016
    Q
    When should I re-apply Bifen IT?
    Just put down some Bifen IT ( favorite product) on our lawn due to some horrible army worm issues going around alabama. We started to notice them dying instantly. How often should I be reapplying to the yard to keep them from coming back. Also, thoughts on the Bifen Granuals and the Bifen IT used together?
    A

    Bifen IT can be re-applied every 30 days. It is not recommended to use Bifen IT and Bifen Granules together in the same place. It would only be doubling up the amount of product in the area and that will cause the insects to become immune more quickly.

    Why is Bifen IT not labeled for use on pastures to control armyworms with cattle present or absent?

    The decision to add pasture applications where livestock will be present (or not) to the Bifen IT product label was made by the manufacturer of the product. We are the retail distributor and have no part in the testing.

  • Asked by Lynda from Central, Fl
    09/04/2016
    Q
    How do I mix Bifen IT in a one gallon sprayer for sod webworms?
    A

    When using Bifen IT to treat for soil dwelling pests such as sob webworms, the rate is not per gallon of water but per 1000 sq ft as you would use sufficient water to cover the target area and get the product to the pest.  Per the product label: To accomplish uniform control when applying to dense grass foliage, use volumes of up to 10 gallons per 1000 square feet.  You would use 0.18 - 0.25 fluid oz. per 1000 sq. ft for sod webworms.  Higher treatment rates (up to 1 fluid oz. per 1000 square feet) may be necessary if high pest pressure exists and if the grass is maintained taller than 1 inch.

    In general 1 gallon can cover 1000 sqft but for sod webworms the amount of water needed could be higher depending on the grass foliage, equipment used, how fast you walk, etc.

    Q
    Is Bifen IT honey bee friendly? Can it be used near a honey bee hive?
    A

    Bifen IT will kill honey bees if they come in contact with the treated area and/or are sprayed directly. It is recommended that you spray in the areas you are wanting to treat when the bees are not actively foraging. A better option would be to use Mavrik Perimeter. There is no lingering odor or visible residue, and when dry, it is non toxic and non repellent to honey bees.
