    Q
    If Bifen is overmixed is it still safe for pets once it is dry?
    A

    Once Bifen IT is dry regardless of mixture it is safe for pets. However it will not work as effectively for the pests you are targeting if you did not use the mixture rates according to the labels instructions.

    Q
    Will this kill the frogs and lizards? We love them.
    A

    Bifen has not proven harmful to lizards or frogs. Other than eliminating the food source of the toads and lizards, Bifen IT when mixed correctly is only strong enough to kill small insects and will have no effect on lizards or anything of that size or larger.

    You can use Temprid mixed with Nyguard indoors and out for fleas and roaches. You will need to also use a bait like Maxforce Magnum for the roaches. Please be sure to visit our flea guide and roach guide.

  • Asked by Kim from Kinston, Nc
    08/13/2023
    Q
    Once you spray and wasps land/touch Bifen, can they "wash" it off?
    We've sprayed directly around our pool, and I have seen several land and dip in the water. I'm severely allergic and want to kill them all!
    A

    Water should not wash away the residual from Bifen IT just like rain would not. Bifenthrin, the active ingredient, interferes with the nervous system of insects when they eat or touch it

  • Asked by Simon from Atlanta Ga

    Q
    Would mixing this with dish soap help make it stick better to vegetation?
    This and Talstar P work awesome!!! I apply maybe every other month unless we get heavy rain coming through. Would mixing this with dish soap or baby shampoo help it stick better to leaves etc for mosquitos like some lawn services do when making their own fertilizer mix? Any other solution?
    A

    We could not advise you to mix dish soap with Bifen IT  because that would be considered an off-label usage. You can mix it with a spreader sticker such as Hi-Yield Spreader Sticker to achieve the results you are looking for.

    Q
    Shelf life...
    I purchased a gallon about a year and a half ago but haven't used it as much as I anticipated. It's currently separated and I'm wondering if it can simply be remixed or if it's gone bad and needs to be disposed of.
    A

    Bifen IT has a shelf life of 3-5 years if kept in a cool dry area. If you notice separation, that is normal and you can shake it up and it still be effective.

    Q
    Will Bifen I/T kill bed bugs and leave a residue to eradicate them?
    A

    Yes, Bifen IT is labeled for bed bugs & leaves a residual that will continue killing. However, it is not the top product that we recommend, we generally recommend using Temprid FX Insecticide. While they both have residuals, they take the Temprid back with them once they are in contact with it. You may also consider using one of our bed bug kits.

    Q
    How often can I spray centipede lawn for spittlebugs that fly?
    Have sprayed the entire lawn a month ago…They came back right within 2 weeks in large numbers—- Sprayed again the entire lawn then…now 2 weeks later they are coming back, especially in eared of the yard. Can I spray as often as needed Ordovician needs to wait?
    A

    Bifen IT should be applied every 30 days. If there is a lot of rain that month that may affect the residual it can reapplied at 3 weeks but not any sooner than that. Bifen is not a contact kill & leaves a residual that continues killing as it comes in contact with treated areas. Too many applications too soon will make the product stop working entirely

    Q
    Can you spray Bifen in the soil for gnats?
    For some reason, I keep getting gnats even if I dry out the soil for my indoor plants. Once I water it a little, they come right back. I'm afraid to bring my plants inside for the winter because I had such a big problem last year. Can I spray the soil to get rid of them? Or is Bifen just for the foliage?
    A

    Bifen IT can be applied as a soil drench and to the plant itself.  Typically just allow the soil to dry out completely as this kills all larvae in the soil that need moisture to survive.  We also have a guide here.
