    Q
    Is Everygreen Pyrethrum Concentrate effective in killing termites in walls & ceilings?
    We have an house with wood slat ceilings, studs, exterior siding, with regular termite problems. I saw a pile of "termite poop" that fell from a bedroom (wood slat) ceiling. We recently had to open some walls in that same bedroom to do plumbing replacement and saw a couple of wall studs with obvious termite damage. Thanks for your advice.
    A

    No, Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate is not labeled for termites. A better option would be to use Premise Foam in the area. This will expand and kill and prevent termites for up to 90 days. 

    We would recommend checking out our Termite Guide for tips on how to treat and prevent termites in and around your home.

    Q
    How effective is applying Evergreen Pyrethrum to treat brown stink bugs?
    I am looking for a safe alternative to traditional insecticides for use on tomato plants. I do have a golden retriever that has access to the area which is my reason for shying away from traditional pesticides.
    A

    Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate will kill most insects including stink bugs but will not offer any residual control. It is safe to apply to tomatoes and safe for animals if used when the dog is not in the area during the application. Your dog can return to the treated areas once the area is completely dry.

    Q
    Will Evegreen Pyrethrum Concentrate kill deer ticks?
    We're seeing them on our dog and on us even just for a walk in our backyard.
    A
    Yes, Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate will kill Ticks. However, Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate does not provide long term protection, it is a contact kill only. This means that Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate must be sprayed on the tick directly in order for it to kill the tick. We would recommend our Tick Control Kit for better results. This kit contains 1 quart (32 oz.) bottle of Permethrin SFR 36.8% and 1 pint (16 oz.) bottle of Archer IGR. The Permethrin SFR provides knockdown and residual control of adult tick populations while the Archer IGR disrupts the life cycle of ticks by preventing immature stages from developing into adults.

  • Asked by Maria from San Antonio, Tx

    Q
    I have a crap ton of weevils. Is there something that is effective I could try?
    A
    There are many different species of weevils, and this makes it difficult to control them because each species has a different life cycle, different food preference, different habitat, and different control method needed. Often times you will be able to identify the weevil that is causing you problems based on where you find them. For example, if you are finding damage and weevils on spruce trees, white pine weevils are probably the culprits. Getting rid of weevils is dependent on the identification of the species. We recommend contacting your local Cooperative Extension Office for a pest identification. Once we have the weevil identified we would be able to make a proper product and treatment recommendation.

    Q
    will pyrethrum work on killing carpenter ants?
    A
    Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate is labeled in general for ants. According to the label you
    will mix 1/4 to 1/2 of a fluid ounce of Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate per gallon of water.
    We recommend using Dominion 2L when treating for Carpenter Ants as a perimeter spray.
    For carpenter ants, use 0.6 fl. oz. per gallon of water to treat around the perimeter of a structure, concentrating on areas where pests may enter the structure. If you are seeing activity inside and outside the home, we recommend using our Carpenter Ant Kit #2.
