    Q
    What do you recommend for leaf cutter ants?
    A

    Leaf cutter ants can be a difficult pest to get rid of. The colonies are large and the ants make their own food so poison baits only have limited effects on this species of ants. According to several university websites Maxforce Complete Bait Granules containing hydramethylnon are some what effec…

    Q
    How long do we need to wait before the dogs can go back to the treated area after applying DeltaGard G Granules?
    A

    Pets are permitted back in the treated area once dry, typically a few hours after application and you water in.  DeltaGard G Granules are a pet and children safe product when applied correctly because it is broadcast over lawn and garden areas and is applied in a small quantity.

    Q
    I live in Lancaster, Pa. We have a problem with cockroaches. They are referred to as Asian water bugs.
    Will DeltaGard G Granules take care of my problem with the cockroaches in my yard, around my patio, deck and in the mulch? Will all of the products in this category work on the roaches. Most of the reviews seem to be re: ants...
    A

    DeltaGard G Granules is labeled for roaches and should work fine for controlling them. You would want to apply every 2 to 3 months and make sure you water in the granules for faster results once you apply it.  You can also apply before a rain event instead of watering the granules in yourself.

    Q
    Are Deltagard G granules effective for a scorpion problem?
    I have read on many forums that people combine cy-kick with delta granules for a scorpion problem. Do the granules work well?
    A

    While Deltagard granules are not labeled to kill scorpions directly the product will help get rid of many other insects which the scorpions use as their food source. When the other insects are gone the scorpions will naturally find your property less favorable and will move on to better hunting grou…

    Q
    How often to reapply DeltaGard to a lawn using a broascast spreader
    I am unable to find how often DeltaGard G needs to be applied to a lawn. The bag says at least a week apart, but not how many applications are needed in a given season. I live in Houston, Texas.
    A

    You would want to apply DeltaGard G Granules - 20 lb. bag every 2 to 3 months and make sure you water in the granules for faster results once you apply it.  You can also apply before a rain event instead of watering the granules in yourself.

    Q
    Which granule is best for springtails?
    The granules I've found on the site for springtails either have Lambda-cyhalothrin or Deltamethrin as an active ingredient. Which would be most effective for springtails?
    A

    Both active ingredients would work very well for springtails. DeltaGard G,  Demand G and Talstar Granules each have synthetic pyrethroids as active ingredients and each would work very well for spring tails. Our most popular spring tail granule is Talstar.

    A

    It sounds like they could possibly be Cicada Killers. To treat Cicada Killers, you can discourage the wasps from nesting in your yard by cutting your grass on the highest setting and by adding a thick layer of mulch to flower beds during the Cicada Killer Wasp season. These wasps do not …

    Q
    How far away from vegetables / nut/fruit trees do you have to be when applying DeltaGard G Granules?
    A

    The manufacturer states that when applying DeltaGard G Granules, you should apply them at least 10 feet away from a garden or the root line of a fruit/nut bearing tree.  DeltaGard G Granules bonds to the top of the surface and will not get down in the roots, but 10 feet away is a good practice.…

    Q
    I raise caterpillars that eat Pipevine. My pest control guy laid Delta Gard around the perimeter (cont. below)
    of my house and it got into the Pipevine, poisoning the caterpillars. My fault, I should have thought of this. My question is, how long before the ground and the Pipevine are safe again for caterpillars and insects?
    A

    We do know that the residual of DeltaGard G Granules is 2-3 months. However, we recommend contacting Bayer 800-331-2867 to determine when it will be safe for the catepillars again.

    Q
    Should DeltaGard G Granules be used in a yard with no lawn?
    My pest control service sprinkled the granules in perimeter ground cover and flower beds, but also throughout the rocks that replaced our lawn. This area does not get watered. Will it still be safe for pets?
    A

    DeltaGard G Granules can be applied in other areas besides lawn areas. Watering in the product will activate the active ingredient. It will not harm pets that enter the treated area. In the areas that are initially watered in, you would want to keep the pets our of until dried.

    Q
    We keep chickens for their eggs and our chickens eat pests in the yard we are treating.
    We are primarily treating the yard because of ticks. If the chickens feed on the ticks and other pests from the treated yard, is it safe to eat the eggs or will the poison be transferred to the eggs we eat?
    A

    Unless the chickens are consuming the DeltaGard G directly there should be no effect on the bird or their eggs.  You must make sure your chickens are out of the area while you apply DeltaGard G and then they can return to the area as soon as it is dry after irrigating the product in.

    DeltaGard G Granules - 20 lb. bag will indeed control all the pest you listed. We would also recommend applying Nyguard to break down the reproductive cycle.
