    It is spring and hot here in Indiana all ready. I treated at the end of summer last year and I see allot less bags on the trees and plucking is not possible. I want to treat now and again in the middle of summer all most lost my pine trees, 700' of them.

    According to the Bifen XTS product label "Dilute 0.26 to 1.28 fl. oz. of Bifen XTS per 10 gallons of water and apply at the rate of 10 gallons per 4,356 square feet. One gallon of finish spray will treat 435 sq. ft." You will want to use the higher usage rate for a faster knockdown and a longer lasting residual.

  • Asked by Sean from Ct
    06/11/2015
    Q
    Would Bifen XTS be a good (residual) alternative to Bifen granules to rid of a springtail infestation?
    I've seen suggestions of Cyonara + Bifen Granules but I wonder if Bifen XTS alone would accomplish the same to rid of springtails.
    A
    Bifen XTS is labeled for springtails. You will use 1/6 fl. oz. per gallon of water. This will be broadcast across the areas where springtails have been seen outdoors and around ornamentals. Using one insecticide is enough.

    Q
    Can I use Bifen XTS with an under ground sprinkler system with ez flow fertilizer in-line system?
    A

    Bifen XTS is not labeled to be used in a fertilizer system like that.  Once it is mixed with water it starts to break down pretty quickly so must be applied with a sprayer.  We are unaware of the products that could be used.

  • Asked by Nick
    06/05/2011
    Q
    Does Bifen XTS work on springtails? Would it be best to treat at night when the pests are present?
    A
    Bifen XTS is labeled for springtails and should do a great job for you. The time of day you spray is not very important as Bifen XTS will leave a long lasting active residual on treated areas. It is important to note that springtails are very hard to eliminate unless the moisture issue that brought them to the area to start with is fixed. You can learn more about how to eliminate springtails by reading our article " How to get rid of springtails"
