    Q
    Will this product kill cicada killer wasps?
    Annual arrivals of cicada killer hornets, going on five years now has tripled.
    A
    For preventative control, applying the Bifen Granules now will treat before the Cicada Killers start burrowing into the ground and help reduce the population. Once they have started to burrow and make holes in the ground, then you can apply the Tempo 1% Dust. Also, the Bifen LP Granules would not yield immediate results, but stop them from returning the following year.

    Q
    If the Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules is activated by rain or irrigation, why does the label say don't apply in rain?
    A

    Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules should not be applied during rain as the granules will start to break down/begin to work and be active when contacted with water.  While applying you do not want the granules to get wet and possibly clump in your spreader

    Q
    is Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules safe for birds if they eat the granules thinking it's food?
    A

    Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules are applied using a lawn spreader to dry turf then immediately watered in with atleast 0.5 to 1 inch of rainfall or irrigation. Once the granules have disolved into the soil, it is safe for childen, pets and wildlife that may enter the treated area. This product could be a hazard to birds if the dry granule is swallowed but once they are watered any risk would not be an issue.

  • Asked by Janet from Cohutta, Ga
    08/26/2021
    Q
    Can Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules be used to treat 5 acres of land that are overrun by armyworms? If so, what is the application rate?
    A

    While the Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules is a great product for armyworms, you will not get a lot of coverage from it. However, the liquid version Bifen IT would be a great alternative for armyworm control and would also cover more area.

    For low or general maintenance applications, Bifen IT is applied at 0.18 - 0.25 fluid oz in 1 gallon of water per 1000 sq. ft (8 fl oz to 11 fl oz in 44 gallons of water per acre).

    For severe/higher populations or when grass is taller than 1 inch, apply Bifen IT at 1 fl oz in 1-2 gallons of water per 1000 sq ft (44 fl oz in 44 to 88 gallons of water per acre). 

    Please view the product label for more information.

    Q
    When is the best time to apply Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules Sod Webworms?
    A

    Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules are best applied in the late afternoon or early evening when larvae are active. Granule applications also should be lightly irrigated immediately after application to wash granules off grass blades and activate the insecticide.

    Sod webworms complete development, pupate and emerge as adults from mid-May to mid-June. Applications of insecticides in early to mid spring before larval activity resumes is most beneficial for control with applications every 30 days. 

    Please view our Sod Webworm Treatment Guide for more information.

    Q
    What setting do I use for a Scott Tuf Builder Classic Drop Spreader to apply Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules?
    A

    Unfortunately we do not have the spreader settings for that specific combo and the manufacturer does not list that spreader on their bag. Due to the thousands of granules on the market and just as many different types of spreaders, you will want to calibrate your spreader to the product you are using and its application rates.

    Please view our How to Calibrate your Spreader Video for step by step instructions.

  • Asked by Sheila from Fenelton, Pa
    05/19/2021
    Q
    Is Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules labeled for roaches and stink bugs?
    A

    Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules are not labeled for control of roaches or stink bugs. Roaches are difficult to kill with lawn granules because they are larger insects and often travel on the top of treated areas where they would not contact a product that has been watered into the ground. For stink bugs, we recommend using a residual insecticide spray such as Bifen IT applied to the structure in late summer and fall to prevent this overwintering pest from entering your home.

    We have detailed Treatment and Prevention Guides for both of these insects:
    Roach Prevention Guide
    Stink Bug Prevention Guide

  • Asked by Adam from Panama City, Florida
    04/26/2021
    Q
    What is the recommended spreader setting for Earthway 65lb broadcast spreader with Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules?
    I'm looking for recommendation for spreader setting to control ants for an earth way 65lb broadcast spreader.
    A

    Due to how many thousands of different spreader types and granulated products there are on the market, there are no master lists that allow us to know the spreader settings for each individual spreader and product used. The best thing to do to make sure you get the results you need from the product is to place the amount for 1000 sq/ft into your spreader and choose a setting somewhere in the middle or a notch or two below that. Walk a 1000 sq/ft area and note how much is being dispersed as you go. If you find the product is being put out too quickly and you feel you will run out before you cover the whole area, you can move the setting to a smaller option. If the opposite is happening and you find you have lots of product still in your spreader after you've covered 1000 sq/ft, you can move the setting up to release more product at a time. We also have a handy video showing how to calibrate your spreader for the product you use that you can see here.
