    07/25/2016
    Q
    Can ExciteR be applied to clothing as a repellent?
    The active ingredient in Sawyer's insect repellent is permethrin. According to my exterminator, he stated that this product could be used as a better repellent for ticks/mosquitoes on hunting clothing. Can this be used in such a fashion?
    A

     ExciteR Insecticide cannot be applied to clothing. We do sell Repel which is labeled to be applied to clothing.

  • Asked by Sid
    06/09/2015
    Q
    Are ExciteR and Archer IGR close to the same product?
    A
    ExciteR and Archer IGR are not the same type of product. ExciteR is a
    concentrate contains 6% pyrethrins and can be used alone in a fogger or pump sprayer, or as an additive to other insecticides such as malathion, permethrin or cypermethrin for a faster knock-down of insect pests. Archer IGR offers no killing power for the insect. It will impede the reproductive cycle of the insect.  An IGR is a form of “birth control” for pests which helps keep the populations of unwanted pests under control by preventing current and future infestations. They can both be mixed together with a professional strength inseciticide concentrate.

    Q
    Can Exciter be added to Essentria IC3 to give it a longer residual or will it just give IC3 a little more punc?

    Yes, Exciter can be mixed with any insecticide to add an extra "kick", or knockdown of insects only.  It will not extend the residual of them.

  • Asked by Carroll
    06/08/2010
    Q
    Will ExcitetR kill stink bugs on tomato plants?
    I've always had trouble with stink bugs ruining my tomatoes before I can enjoy them. I've tried everything short of a .22 rifle with no success. I can't afford to spend money on something expensive unless I can feel reasonably sure that it will work.
    A
    No, Exciter cannot be used on any edible vegetation. We do carry Acephate 75SP, Cyonara Lawn and Garden and Malathion 57%, each of which can be used on different fruits and vegetables. Malathion has the broadest label and is our most popular product for customers that need to treat fruit and vegetable plants. Always read the product label to be sure the plants you need to treat are listed. We also recommend contacting your local cooperative extension office to seek advice on the best products for plants and insects in your region.

  • Asked by Raul from San Antonio, Tx
    07/12/2013
    Q
    Does ExciteR have an odor? And how much to mix with Talstar for roaches?
    A
    Like the Talstar, the ExciteR does not have a distinguishable odor and will also dry clear. The ExciteR would be mixed at the rate of 1/2 ounce per gallon of water with 1 ounce of the Talstar. When spraying for roaches you may want to highly consider using an IGR-insect birth contro- to make sure the roaches are not reproducing faster than you can kill them. One of our best IGR's for roaches is the Gentrol IGR. You can mix 1 ounce of this in the same gallon of water as the Talstar and ExciteR and it will last on the surface for roughly 3 months making sure any roach that comes into contact with it can not reproduce.

  • Asked by Lydia
    09/04/2010
    Q
    Will Exciter mixed with Onslaught work as preventative for bedbugs and roaches?
    A
    So far, nothing seems to work as an effective preventative for bedbugs. Recently, bedbug monitoring systems have become available, which can help with early detection. The Catchmaster BDS (Bedbug Detection System) is a patented device designed to detect bed bugs. BDS is a passive monitoring device that provides what would be considered a perfect harborage area for bed bugs and when they enter the trap, they become stuck. Onslaught will do a great job for roach control. Exciter should be added when you have a current infestation.

    Q
    Can ExciteR Insecticide be used on a wood pile?
    I have a wood pile that has carpenter ants, spiders and beetles in the wood. Can this be added to a thermal fogger and then applied to the wood pile? Is it safe to burn the wood 6 months from now in my wood burning stove inside my house?
    A

    We do not recommend to apply any liquids to a wood pile  you intend to burn. You can apply granules like Niban around the exterior of the wood pile. This product will treat for ants, roachs, and many other insects.

  • Asked by Karima from Bergen, Nj
    06/02/2016
    Q
    How long does ExciteR Insecticide last indoor and outdoor?
    A

    ExciteR will offer a fast knockdown of the insects present at the time of the application but it will not leave a long lasting residual. You may want to consider mixing ExciteR with an insecticide like Talstar to have a fast knockdown of the insects present and a lasting residual to help control the new insects that come into the area.
