    Q
    Can treat my yard with Bifen IT if I have applied Bayer Advanced Insect Killer granules?
    A

    Typically mosquitoes are not going to harbor in the lawn where the Bayer granules were placed.  They are usually found in bushes and dense foliage areas.  You can safely spray all bushes/hedges/ground covers and any areas you feel mosquitoes may be present on a monthly basis with Bifen I/T

    Yes, Bifen IT is an excellent option for boxelder bugs. Be sure to spray around the perimeter of the home, around windows, doors, etc. where the bugs could get indoors. You should treat once a month until the first frost. This product can also be used indoors around the perimeter of your home. The mixing ratio is 1 fl. oz. per gallon of water.

    Q
    I want to use Bifen IT to treat fleas in my house. How should it be applied in the home if I have carpet?
    A

    Bifen IT would not be recommended for fleas inside and cannot be used on carpets.  It is only for cracks and crevices when used inside.  We would recommend our Indoor Flea Kit
    There is a great video on how to use the kit here.

    Q
    For chinch bugs in lawn, how soon after application should you water Bifen in?
    Most directions for using Bifen on your lawn say to make sure it has 24 hours to dry before getting wet. But for chinch bugs, it says to water the product into the lawn. Do you water it in immediately? Wait 1 hour? 2 hours? 24 hours?
    A
    When using Bifen IT for chinch bugs you should water in at 1/4 inch immediately after application to get it down to where they are.  It is only when you are applying for surface dwelling insects that you would wait to water so that it has time to dry on the surface it has been applied to.  

    Specific instructions from the label for chinch bugs: Mostly found in the thatch layer, chinch bugs infest the base of grass plants. In order to optimize the penetration of the insecticide to location of the chinch bugs, irrigation of the grass prior to treatment may be necessary. If grass is being kept at a long mowing height or if the thatch layer is excessive, use higher volume treatments. It may be necessary to use higher application rates (up to 1 fluid oz. per 1000 square feet) to control populations made up of both adults and nymphs in mid-summer.
