Customer Reviews for Bifen IT

I live in Las Vegas where the heat sometimes gets to 120 and the bugs start to come in, I hired a pest control company but it didn't help much so I decided to try this product and in a matter of days the big roaches started to disappear, then the little bitties and now my house is bug free for the summer.

I cannot say enough about this product or DoMyOwnPestControl. We had an unidentified bug and great customer support helped me identify and treat it. Now it is gone. I have used this product and company in the past and I have never been disappointed.

The price at this website is amazing. A local pest store sells it at $75 per QUART! I like it as a good all-around indoor/outdoor spray. Spray all around your house outside up the walls about 3 feet, plus in the weep holes and you will see great results with ants and many other pests.

Bifen IT worked great on the beetle infestation we have every year. We have tried many different chemicals and natural remedies to no avail. Bifen is the answer for us. Also did a great job on all other pests.

I started to notice more and more bugs/spiders/ants coming into the house. Rather than paying someone 100+ dollars to do it, I looked into a DIY alternative. Being that the house hasn't been sprayed before, I did 1 oz per gallon. I assumed it was working, as I sprayed I saw spiders running for their lives. I didn't think a spider could move that fast. It's been about a week and I haven't had anything in the house. For the amount it makes and how effective it seemingly is - I would highly recommend this in the best bang for your buck category.

Anyone having experienced millipede invasion knows it has been impossible to control them before this product. Best insect control purchase I have ever made. Delivery of the product was 2 days after ordering.

This order was to resupply what I had recently used. My experience in the past has been great. I use it primarily for chinch bugs. I usually spray in mid June and again if necessary.

This is the second year I've bought Bifen and it works great to get any tick problem in your home under control. I live in a very wooded area and ticks are inevitable but this certainly keeps them at bay. Highly recommended.

I own a motel, and bugs were a big problem for me. We have 1000's of pill bugs (AKA roly poly) infest our property every spring and millipedes every fall. One application of Bifen IT has completely wiped out the bugs... I don't see a single bug out there... This product is great!!

Works as good as Talstar for chinch bug control in Floratam lawns. Less pricey

I own a campground in Texas, and I have been using Bifen IT for several years. I mix 1 ounce of Bifen IT per gallon of water and spray a fine mist on the lower branches of the trees in the campground (up to 6 feet off the ground). The mist that does not land on the tree branches falls to the ground, so I don't have to spray the ground. I treat the campground once every 6 months, and I have absolutely no problems with any insect. It kills mosquitos and ants almost immediately upon contact, and it takes about 30 seconds to kill spiders. When spiders are sprayed, they usually remain still for 15 seconds. Then they begin to feel the effects of the insecticide and their legs start moving frantically back and forth. At the end of 30 seconds the spider is dead. I'm not talking about little spiders. The spiders we have around here have bodies the size of a golf ball. By the way, I should mention that I add 1/4 cup of Dawn liquid dishwashing soap to 15 gallons of mixed insecticide. The liquid soap helps the insecticide stick to the foliage. Excellent product!

Great product! Used it for ants ( White footed?) that comes back after using a different insecticide. Also used it for springtails ( this crawlers are hard to get rid off).

I bought this product to treat a wide variety of insects, mainly fleas, ticks, ants and spiders. It's been 2 weeks since I sprayed the exterior of my house and barn. I'm seeing ants, spiders and a few fleas here and there, maybe it has a time delay on insects that are new to treated areas. Plan on retreating entire yard and house again in August just to be safe!

This is the only product I've found that keeps the sand fleas under control in our barn. After an Internet search, I came across this product. Wish I'd found it sooner. Would have saved a bundle!

Bifen I/t is a great product!!! I use to have ants, scorpions, and roaches and now I see them dead, stiff and up side down when I get up in the morning. I will recommend this product to anyone with pest problems and thank you for making things so easy.

After quite alot of web research, I bought this product to get rid of a spider mite infestation that is affecting some ivy I have as a houseplant. In the research, I found that Bifen can also be used to exterminate other kinds of pests, such as ants, roaches etc. So, besides spraying my infested plant, I also gave it a shot on house porches and lawn for ants. The product has worked very well for the ants, but the spider mites are still a problem with my ivy, after almost 2 weeks of treatment. I'm going to insist a little bit more as I saw some improvement, maybe this mite infestation has got too much for the Bifen to work. Will see.

On the suggestion of a friend, I used a pump sprayer to spray Bifen IT on the English ivy and pine bed areas of my yard (.3 acres), to keep the mosquitoes from carrying us away in the summer. As far as I can tell, it has been successful. Check back in mid-summer for the full report, but before you could expect about 4 to 5 bites and I have been 'bothered' once every 5 times we have been out. I also sprayed the entire perimeter of my home as the video instructed, but have not had termites before. I have been in my home for 5 years (25 year old home). I am on a basement with no wood product in contact with the grade. So far so good. If it keeps the mosquitoes down for the rest of the Summer, I will buy enough to last me, just in case the EPA makes up a reason to ban it.

I have used the product before and was pleased with it. I was very pleased to find it on the Internet and also enjoyed the video clip on how to apply the product. I plan to order again when I need more.

I haven't used Bifen IT yet, but this is the same chemical that is in Ortho "Home Defense", that is effective yet non-toxic to animals and people. I have used the Ortho product a lot, including for dry wood termites. Using Bifen IT, you can mix up the same solution for a little over $1 a gallon compared to $8 a gallon for the Ortho product. Local professional exterminators use the same chemical for general insect control, both in liquid and granule form. Also, I received good and prompt service from DoMyOwnPestControl.com, and I will be ordering more products from them. Their website encouraged me to tackle my termite project rather than paying very big bucks to the termite companies.

I have used this product for 2 years now--great product to keep ants, spiders, and bugs from around your house and bark mulch. Same product a local exterminator uses and charges much more money- You won't be disappointed

I am a homeowner who has been taking care of my own lawn for thirteen years. I have used Bifen I/T to control chinch bugs in my St. Augustine lawn in central Florida (Tampa area) for a year now. It has kept the chinch bugs under control and I have not had damage. I have used other granular products purchased at retail stores over the years and they aren't as effective. Unfortunately, the chinch bugs seem to grow immune to those products after constant use. I first used Bifen I/T that I had purchased at a local nursery. It worked very well. My confidence grew with this product when I found out that my neighbor's professional pest control company uses the exact same product. My neighbor had NO chinch bug damage that entire season. One day I came across DOMYOWNPESTCONTROL while online and couldn't believe how much cheaper it was than my local nursery. I could buy a quart at DOMYOWN for the same price as a pint at the nursery. I received the product within three days with free shipping. I had a great experience with DOMYOWNPESTCONTROL and I highly recommend them. I have already recommended them to my neighbors. FYI, read the label of Bifen I/T on how many other pest it kills. I plan on using it for indoor pest control as well.

I bought Bifen IT to control white-footed ants here in S. Florida... it worked GREAT for a couple of years; but the ants have apparently developed a resistance to it... I treated and retreated.. I soaked the trails numerous times; but it just won't work anymore... I spoke with a rep from Bifen's maker and he suggested I try Dominion 2L.. He also suggested that I alternate using Bifen and Dominion so as to reduce the likelihood of resistance... So, here I go trying Dominion 2L.. If that doesn't work, I'll bite the bullet and try Termidor.

I was in the pest control industry for eight years and so as an experienced person who has using pesticides such as Demon EC - a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide, I have to say that Bifen IT is fantastic. It was recommended by my brother, a pest control operator, to treat a problem I had with carpenter ants. After applying it as directed (1 oz per gallon) I was able to successfully cut down the population to zero. Obviously it will need reapplication since the EPA has regulated that these chemicals be biodegradable but it's certainly worth the effort. You don't need to hire a company to control your pest problems. Buy this product and follow the directions and you'll be delighted with the results.

I like this better than Malathion and Sevin. I spray our lawn, perennials, annuals, shrubs, trees, rain gutters, under our deck and foundation with Bifen IT. I'm on a wooded acre and spray as much of my property as I can. I give everything a good wet spray with a hose end sprayer which offers more coverage than a tank sprayer. I spray a few days after a rain when everything is dried out. I've always thought that the rain and moisture breeds mosquitoes so that is a good time to spray them. There is no odor. But it's the insect protection that is fantastic. We spend a lot of time outside in the yard and gardens. We also spend a lot of time on our back deck at night. In the past it would be unbearable. This stuff kills bugs dead and keeps killing which seems like weeks at a time. Pesky mosquitoes and gnats are history. If you wanna be able to spend time outside and those flying insects are a problem then this is the stuff you need. I just hope the state doesn't outlaw it.

My uncle told me about this product. Since Diazinon isn't available anymore I had to find something new for the home and the work shop. I have used Bifen IT now for a year and it is a better product than what I used before. We had a time with spiders for awhile but now have them under control. I use it around my trees for ants and in my work shop for spiders. I also use it in my dog kennels and there are no ants or bugs around. It works great at label recommendations in a pump up sprayer.

Bifen IT works great for mole crickets. One application in the evening and the next morning I had dead mole crickets on the concrete drive.
