    Q
    Will Bifen IT kill stink bugs inside my home and garden?
    A

    Bifen IT is labeled for stink bugs. You can use it indoors and outdoors but it is not labeled for use in a vegetable garden.  We suggest using Hi-Yield Indoor/Outdoor Broad Use Insecticide with 10% Permethrin. It  can be used on certain edible vegetation not grown for sale. Please take a few minutes to read the product label to see if the plants you need to treat are listed.

  • Asked by Cullen from Zebulon, Nc

    Q
    If my dog eats grass that Bifen IT is sprayed and dryer on will it harm her?
    A

    Bifen IT should be applied and dried prior to the entry of the dogs. Once dry, it is safe for their return. It will not reactivate when wet again.Your dog would have to eat a lot of grass most likely to get sick, and he/she would probably get much more sick from the grass then the product.  However, of course we recommend anything you can do to minimize your dog from eating the grass.

    Q
    How much to use Bifen IT on the lawn for cranefly larvae?
    I am using a a garden hose sprayer and I am wondering how much to use of Bifen IT to use on my yard for cranefly larvae?
    A
    In most cases it is not necessary to use an insecticide for crane fly larvae control. If damage is severe we would recommend using 1 fl oz of Bifen IT per gallon of water to cover each 1,000 sq ft for the initial treatment and then .5 fl oz per gallon of water for follow up treatments.

  • Asked by Kathrun from Shawnee, Ok
    08/17/2013
    Q
    Is Bifen IT bee-safe?
    Is Bifen IT toxic to honeybees? I am looking for effective control for mosquitos, fleas, and spiders (including brown recluse), but am concerned about increased risk to a dwindling bee population.
    A
    Bifen IT is not a selective insecticide and it will kill any insects that come into contact with treated areas. You can reduce the risk to your bees by keeping applications away from areas where the bees are actively foraging and at times when the bees are not active in general. You may also consider using Mavrik Perimeter insecticide for outdoor pests, which is non-repellent and non-toxic to honeybees after it is dried. You will want to read the product label to see if this fits your needs.

  • Asked by Nancy from Waltham, Ma
    09/06/2014
    Q
    What works on cluster flies that come into my log cabin and hover around the sunny windows every autumn?
    My log home is in Andover ME
    A

    Bifen IT can be used to help control cluster flies indoors and outdoors. If the cluster flies have already made their way indoors, they will be harder to control because they usually hide in a wall void or other inaccessible area and are only visible when the house warms up. If the cluster flies are in an attic or drop ceiling or other dark area, a fly light would do a great job controlling the population. Using small fly lights such as the Fly Web in the house would also help to catch the flies. Spray Bifen IT directly on baseboards, window frames, door frames, and places where utilities (pipes, wires, cables) enter in to the building and any other crack, crevice or gap where insects can enter.

    Here is an article that will give you a little bit more information on cluster flies and cluster fly control methods: How to get rid of cluster flies
