    Q
    I just purchased Bifen XTS -1 quart -They told me at the lawn & garden I could use this inside house
    As well as outside just make sure it dries where sprayed. Is this true?
    A

    We apologize but you have been misinformed. Bifen XTS is not labeled for indoor use for general pest control. We do carry Bifen IT which contains the same active ingredient as the Bifen XTS but is a water based formula and can be used inside as directed on the label.

    Does Bifen XTS kill bed bugs
    A

    No, Bifen XTS is not labeled to kill bedbugs and is an outdoor only use product.

  • Asked by Dave from Raleigh, Nc
    06/16/2016
    Q
    How do I use Bifen XTS with a Chapin Slide-N-Spray hose end sprayer to kill chiggers in my lawn?
    Since the Chapin sprayer has a 6 gallon capacity should I add 6 oz of bifen and then fill the sprayer to the 6 gal mark with water before attaching to the hose? Should I water the lawn after applying?
    A

    No, you will add .32 fl. oz of Bifen XTS per gallon of water. For six gallons, you will use 1.92 fl. oz. of product, fill the reservoir up to 6 with water if the product does not reach that point, attach the hose end sprayer to the hose, set the dial to six and then turn it on and spray. This will treat 6000 square feet.

    You do not need to water your lawn after applying this product.

    Q
    Can I use Bifen XTS for termites in mulch?
    I think I have termites in my flowerbed's mulch. I see little flying insects in the mulch and to me they look like termites. How do I treat these termites in the mulch with XTS? How much XTS do I add to a 1- gallon sprayer? THANKS AND BLESSINGS !!!
    A

    Bifen XTS is not labeled to treat termites in a lawn or landscaped area.  There will always be termites in your yard and there is not really much you can do about it.  If you feel you need to treat you can use a product like Bayer Advanced Termite Killer Ready to Spread Granules to treat instead.

  • Asked by Andrea from Walnut Creek, California
    07/12/2017
    Q
    Should I use Bifen XTS or Onslaught in the hot climate on my yard to treat for rat mites?
    Bifen XTS (with oils) and Onslaught do not specify what type of mites it can treat. I have onslaught which I know u prefer; But because of the heat/ sun/ UV rays the Bifen with oil based will hold up and not break down. Which product should I use for rat mites? I'll be mixing with Nyguard.
    A

    We cannot guarantee that these products will work for rat mites. There has not been enough study on them with these products to gaurantee you results to treat specifically for these type of mites. Oil base prodcuts do however tend to hold up well outdoors and also offer a suffacant for any insect directly sprayed for a faster kill. 

    Bifen XTS would be the better product to use since it is an oil base product that will tend to hold up well outdoors.

  • Asked by Crystal from Omaha, Ne
    07/12/2017
    Q
    How Effective is Bifen Against Grasshoppers?
    Bifen XTS u claim doesn't repel but kills within 24hrs of contact so how is this effective for protecting my gardens & trees if it's doesn't REPEL & only kills n the 1st 24hrs of contact as bugs will continue to attack my plants? I've also struggled w/grasshoppers & finding a product that will kill them & protect my plants. Also u state rainfall/UV determines length of coverage I also assume sprinklers as well? Is there documentation that explains how or when u will need to reapply? i.e. re-apply after 10 rainfalls
    A

    Bifen XTS has a 4 - 8 week residual, depending on the amount of rain and UV rays that the area gets.  Typically, Bifen XTS as well as many other liquid insecticides only need about 30 minutes to dry. Once dry, they can hold up to rain rather well. If you are experiencing heavy rainfall daily, then I would suggest you wait to apply Bifen XTS when no rainfall is expected within 24 hours. You can reapply this product as needed for control of the grasshoppers.  It will kill the grasshoppers within 24 hours of them having contact with the Bifen XTS.  For more information on protecting your garden from grasshoppers please read this article written by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
