    Q
    Does EcoVia EC work on carpet beetle larvae?
    A

    The product label for EcoVia EC does not list carpet beetles as an indoor controlled pest so we would not recommend it for this use. Please take a moment to review our How to Get Rid of Carpet Beetles Guide for more information on a successful treatment plan.

    Q
    Can you mix Exponent Synergist with EcoVia EC?
    A

    You could potentially mix Exponent with EcoVia EC, however it is important to note that Exponent is not labeled for use in all the same areas, such as aquatic areas. You would need to follow the more restrictive label when mixing more than one product.

    Q
    Does EcoVia EC stain hard surfaces such as pavers or concrete?
    A

    EcoVia EC should not damage or stain the concrete or pavers when used as directed on the product label, and we have not heard complaints of this happening. The product should dry clear, but we would suggest testing a small, inconspicuous area first to be sure.

    Q
    Will EcoVia EC harm or kill dragonflies?
    I need to treat for extreme case of mosquitoes in Northern MN and do not want to kill the dragonflies that eat our mosquitoes. Natural defense but this year there are way too many mosquitoes and the dragonflies just started to hatch
    A

    Unfortunately there isn't a way to only kill one species and not the other and broadcast treat an area they may both cohabitate in. However, most insects have times of day they are most active and least active, so spraying during the least active times for dragonflies can give more time for the product to dry and potentially not impact them as much the following days. There is just no way to guarantee they wont be impacted to some extent when using an insecticide whether all natural, orgranic, or otherwise if it carries a residual.

    Q
    Can this product be used in a home when pregnant?
    A
    Essentria IC3 or EcoVia EC would be a great option for pest control. We suggest that adults (included those that are pregnant), children and pets should be out of the area during treatment. They can return once the surfaces have completely dried and the home has been ventilated.

    Q
    How to negate toxic fumes from EcoVia EC that came up furnace into house?
    This product was sprayed in my garage by my pest control service and came up the furnace vents to the upstairs and I have had bad reaction to very toxic smelling fumes, even though it is suppose to be plant based.
    A

    You will need to reach out to the manufacturer of EcoVia EC. Rockwell Labs can be reached at 816-283-3167. They also list an emergency contact which is 800-424-9300. It is also recommended to reach back out to the company that sprayed it.

    Q
    OK for Vinyl Siding?
    Is this product okay to use on vinyl siding? Some wording on the product label causes me concern about using it on vinyl siding.
    A
    It would not be recommended to spray EcoVia EC on vinyl siding because it is platic which is a sensitive surface that may be stained by oil based products. If overspray lands on any sensitive surfaces (particularly plastics), simply rinse with water and wipe off with a clean cloth.

    Q
    What is the major difference between EcoVia EC and Essentria IC Pro?
    A

    EcoVia EC is comparable to Essentria IC Pro in that they are both all natural. While their ingredients are slightly different the biggest difference is that they are made by two different manufacturers. The IC Pro is also not labeled for as many pests as the EcoVia EC.

    Is EcoVia the best people safe wasp control?
    A

    EcoVia EC is a top choice as a natural insecticide option, it is labeled kills of a wide range of flying, crawling and sucking insects such as mosquitoes, ants, cockroaches, spiders, fleas, bed bugs, flies, wasps, ticks, brown marmorated stink bugs, kudzu bugs, white flies, aphids, and many more. EcoVia EC can safely be applied in and around homes, businesses, near and over water such as boat docks and pool areas without harming aquatic life, as well as numerous other areas.   People and pets should be out of the area during treatment until dry, typically about 4-6 hours.

    Q
    I want to treat about 2.5 acres. Can I just apply EcoVia EC to the perimeter, or do I need to spray the entire area?
    A

    EcoVia EC can be applied just to the perimeter of an area as a sort of barrier to kill insects coming into the area but if you have insects already across the entire area it would be best to cover it all.

    Q
    How long does EcoVia EC take until spiders are completely dead?
    A

    The time frame it takes EcoVia EC  to eliminate spiders will depend on the number of spiders in the area and the rate the product is applied at. It could take up to a week to see results. This product does not guarantee that the spiders will be gone forever. The product will likely need to be reapplied for maintenance every 21 days.

    Q
    Is Eco Via safe to use if I have a dessert tortoise free roaming my back yard?
    A

    EcoVia EC does not have restrictions for use around animals or aquatic life as long as the product is applied according to the label instructions. You should not apply directly onto animals, and we do recommend trying to spray when animals such as tortoises are not present in the direct application area for extra caution.

    Q
    Can I apply the highest rate which is 6 oz of EcoVia EC to 25 gallons of water ?
    On the label for lawn spray It reads that I can use 1 to 6 oz per gallon or 1 to 6 oz in sufficient water to cover 1000 square ft. Does that mean that I can use as much water as I need to cover 1000 square ft. areas. For example if it takes me 25 gallons of water to cover 1000 sq. Ft. area I can apply the highest rate which is 6 oz?
    A

    EcoVia EC is a great choice if you are seeking a natural concentrate to mix with water and apply to outdoor areas. You may mix up to 6oz of EcoVia EC per gallon of water depending upon application site and insect.

    Q
    Do I have to dilute theEcoVia EC with oil if sprayed with the ULV fogger like Vectorfog C100?
    I am planning to spray EcoVia EC with a ULV fogger like Vectorfog C100 to sray tall trees and bushes. But the instruction of the EcoVia EC says "For ULV (cold fog) and thermal fog applications, apply undiluted or dilute with light mineral oil or another suitable non-phytotoxic diluent". C100 has a 1-gallon tank and a flow rate of 8-16 GPH, which means it can finish a tank in less than 7.5 min. I just cannot image how much EcoVia EC I would need to treat the area if undiluted or how much oil to spread on trees if diluted. Can we just use water? What is the different between the application with water and oil diluent? Thank you for your help.
    A

    In a cold/ULV Fogger, you can dilute concentrates like EcoVia EC with either water or with oil. Typically you would dilute with water whenever possible outdoors to reduce the risk of phytotoxicity on the plants you are treating. Per the product label, use up to 0.25-1.5 fl oz of product per 1000 sq ft of ground surface area, or up to 10-60 fl oz per acre. It sounds like you will likely need to dilute the product to apply at this rate if your fogger is applying product that quickly.
