    Q
    Is Cyzmic CS Micro-encapsulated Insecticide your best product to kill scorpions?

    Q
    Will Cyzmic CS Micro-encapsulated Insecticide kill honey bees in a wall?
    A

    Cyzmic CS Micro-encapsulated Insecticide will kill bees that land in the area. A better option would be to use a dust in the wall voids, such as Tempo Dust. This will provide control for up to 7 months if the dust is undisturbed. Be sure to only use a light coating of dust so that the bees will not avoid the area. 1-2 puffs out of the bottle is sufficient.

    We do recommend consulting with a professional if you believe you have a honey bee hive in your wall since you must remove all materials, honey, etc. completely to avoid any reinfestation or secondary problems like hive beetles and mold.

  • Asked by Margie from Leakey, Tx
    10/27/2017
    Q
    Should you mix Phantom with Cyzmic CS?
    If yes, Why would you and would you also need Gentrol IGR?
    A

    No, we do not recommend mixing Cyzmic CS and Phantom at the same time. Cyzmic CS has a faster kill than Phantom, so you would lose the transfer effects of Phantom by mixing these two products together. You could use these insecticides in rotation with one another. You can mix Gentrol with either insecticide since Gentrol is a growth regulator (IGR) and does not kill adult insects. Gentrol is like birth control for insects, so it helps to interrupt the breeding cycle. Be sure to check out our Pest Guides which have treatment guides for the most common pests to get the most out of your treatments and products.

    Q
    Can I use Cyzmic CS Micro-encapsulated Insecticide for roaches?
    My mother-in-law have a roach problem, pretty bad. You can literally sit on the porch and watch them walk on in from the neighbors. I was wondering if I could just use this to treat the problem?
    A

    Cyzmic CS Micro-encapsulated Insecticide certainly can be used for roaches, but if the infestation is severe, it is not likely that just using an insecticide by itself will completely control them.  It is usually necessary to use an insect growth regulator (IGR) along with a roach bait gel as well.  We normally recommend using one of our Roach Control Kits so that you will have everything you need to eradicate a roach infestation.  You may want to look over our Roach Control Guide for more information on how to kill and prevent roaches.

    Q
    Will Cyzmic CS kill bird mites?
    A

    Cyzmic CS is a great all around general insecticide that can be used for many insects. While bird mites specifically are not on the label mites in general are, and it can be used in areas where mites may be found. Be sure to remove all nesting materials and birds from the area to ensure that the host and source is eliminated so you can get any lingering mites controlled quickly. Spray the areas outside the home where the nest was found and surrounding surfaces, and if any have made their way in the home during this process you can use the Cyzmic around baseboards and crevices and window and door frames.

    Q
    Will Cyzmic CS stain my walls or paint?
    I want to know if this spray will leave any kind of stain, drips, water marks, shadows, etc on my walls. Thank you.
    A

    Cyzmic CS should not stain or leave any visible residue if mixed and applied according to the instructions on the product label.  Having said that, we always recommend that you test any product you choose on a small inconspicuous area to be sure staining will not occur. Sometimes old paint can be an issue when using any product.

    Yes, it is a good idea to rotate insecticides in order to prevent resistance from building. Cyzmic CS would be a great choice to use in rotation with Onslaught FastCap

    Q
    When you say Firebrats, do you mean Fire ants?
    I have an infestation of palmetto bugs as well as a 60 foot radius in my backyard that is a fire ant mound that I need to get rid of ASAP, will this work for that?
    A

    Firebrats are similar to silverfish, not fire ants. Cyzmic CS is a great option for use in your lawn for palmetto bugs and fire ants. The mixing rate is 0.4 fl oz per gallon of water. This can be broadcast across your lawn and applied every 21 days as needed. The residual outdoors is 30 days and 90 days indoors.
