Also, DE can take a week or more to kill an insect and in that time those insects can continue to bite, bree…

    Q
    What chemical and fogger should I use for mosquitoes, spider, midges, and a host of other insects?
    I live on a lake, with mosquitoes, spider, midges, and a host of other insects. I've tried a lot of different products nothing works more than a couple of days. I have had the lawn fogged professional that was great lasted about a month--- real expensive though. I have grandchildren and pets and we are in the yard often. What should I use?

Eco-Exempt IC-2 can be sprayed or fogged for mosquitoes, midges, spiders and oth…

    Best way to spray for mosquitoes in NC
    We have a pool in the back and live in a very wooded area. Mosquitoes are BAD back there, but I'd hate to kill all the beneficial bugs also. I hear garlic sprays work well, as does Permethrin, but am not sure how to go about this myself. Misting systems are $3000 and I'm not sure that's a good way to go. Help?
    A

    Unfortunately insecticides are not selective. Spraying for mosquitoes will also have some effect on the beneficial insects since their basic biology is the same. Eco Exempt IC-2  plus Eco Adjuvant would be a good choice for mosquito control. Eco Exempt IC-2 is an all natural product that would …

    Q
    Is Eco Exempt IC-2 Insecticide really as good as chemicals? Will it get rid of Stink Bugs?
    Hey, I really like your site, and once I figure out what to get, I'm definitely buying from you. I have a big stink bug problem. They are all over the outside of my house. Thousands of them. I need them gone before they come in. I'm looking at Cynoff EC, but I would certainly prefer a more environmental friendly alternative. Is this really just as good? I really need something that will work. Thanks for your time
    A

    The manufacturer of Eco Exempt IC2 claims that it does work just as well as synthetic products. We have not had any complaints from customers that have purchased and used the Eco Exempt IC-2, but we do not have any feed back from anyone using it for stink bugs.

    Q
    Indoor and Outdoor application of Eco Exempt IC-2.
    I have been spraying the baseboards in my house with ECO Exempt Ic-2, and I was wondering how often should I do this? I was spraying it every thirty days indoors and every two weeks outside. Can I spray it less often? How long can I expect it to keep killing spiders before I reapply indoors and outdoors? How long is the residual killing power?
    A

    According to the manufacturer, Eco Exempt IC-2 has about the same residual activity as commercial synthetic pyrethroid insecticides. This means it should last about 1 month outdoors and up to 3 months indoors.
