We would recommend using our General Pest Control Kit. It has all the items that you will need to ensure that you are combating various types of insects.
STEP 1 - Spray - Chapin 1 Gallon Pump Sprayer and Temprid SC Insecticide
*To use the Chapin 20000 1 Gallon Pump Sprayer, you will need to screw the hose onto the tank adapter per the instructions included with the sprayer. Turn the pump handle counterclockwise to remove the pump so that the tank may be filled.
*Wear gloves when mixing and handling pesticides, such as Nitrile Chemical Resistant Gloves.
*Fill the tank 1/3 - 1/2 with clean, temperate water. Shake Temprid SC before opening, then add 1 x 8mL dose of Temprid SC Insecticide Concentrate to sprayer tank.
*Secure sprayer pump and gently shake or agitate the tank to begin mixing.
*Remove sprayer pump and finish filling the sprayer tank with water to the 1 gallon mark.
*Replace sprayer pump and tighten securely by turning the handle clockwise.
*To pressurize the sprayer, turn the handle ¼ turn counter-clockwise to release, then pump until you feel resistance.
*Push handle down, turn ¼ turn clockwise to lock in place. Now you are ready to spray. Re-pump sprayer as needed during application to maintain pressure.
*Turn the end of the nozzle to adjust the spray pattern from a pin stream to a wide cone spray.
*Apply Temprid SC to the following areas:
*Keep pets and children out of the treatment area while spraying and until the application has dried, usually about an hour.
*Try to use up all the spray mixture in one application. If spray solution is stored overnight, re-agitate the tank before spraying. After use, spray some clean water through the tank outside as a rinse, then store the tank empty and open in a cool, dry area.
*Do not apply Temprid SC to edible plants such as vegetable gardens or fruit trees.
*Repeat application at 90-day intervals for general maintenance. In times of higher pest pressure, such as summer months, or in areas with extended direct sunlight, applications may be made more frequently, such as every 30 days.
*Temprid SC may be applied as a spot or crack and crevice treatment indoors in areas such as around door frames and window frames, where utilities enter, and behind and under appliances.
STEP 2 - Dust - Bellow Hand Duster and CimeXa Insecticide Dust
*After your insecticide spray has dried, you can apply the insecticide dust.
*Using insecticide dust can be very messy, so be sure to wear gloves and consider having a moist paper towel handy to clean up excess dust.
*To fill the Bellow Hand Duster, remove the black rubber stopper on top of the duster. Gently unscrew the white top of the CimeXa dust, then slowly tap the dust into the duster. Fill the duster up to halfway (or less), so there is plenty of room for the dust to move inside the duster.
*You may want to add a few small objects such as coins, pebbles, or marbles to prevent clumping inside the duster.
*Replace the black stopper so that it fits snugly into the opening. Remove the black rubber cap from the end of the extension wand. To apply dust, hold the duster upside down, so that the extension wand is on top, then gently squeeze the bellows between the thumb and fingers.
*Apply insecticide dust to cracks and crevices such as:
*Dust can also be used indoors in cracks and crevices where the dust will not easily be removed or disturbed, such as behind outlet covers, under baseboards, around pipe collars, and under and behind cabinets.
*Re-apply insecticide dust every 6 months.
*See our Video for more tips on dusting.
STEP 3 - Monitor and Maintain - Catchmaster 100i Insect Monitors
*Use the included Catchmaster Insect Monitor Glue Boards to track your progress:
*Repeat spray applications every 90 days, or more frequently in the summer, if needed.
*Repeat dust applications every 6 months for best results.
*Continue to monitor the environment and make adjustments as necessary to keep up your Integrated Pest Management practice.
We would recommend using our General Pest Control Kit. All the products inside the kit will combat the pests. Temprid SC is a very good product that can be used indoors and outdoors. It is labeled for various pests, including mosquitoes, ants, etc. The residual is about 90 days indoors and 30 days outdoors. Indoors, you will spray along the baseboards, cracks and crevices. Outdoors, you will spray around the perimeter of your home and spray around windows and doors so that pests cannot enter the home. Cimexa Dust will be used inside the wall voids. You will take off the light plate switches and electrical sockets and do a couple of puffs per hole. This will last about 10 years in the wall voids if left undisturbed.
We do currently carry any products that will kill frogs but if there are no insects in the area, this will eliminate their food source. They will likely move on from there.
Our General Pest Control Starter Kit has enough Temprid Insecticide to treat 2000 sq ft of either indoor, outdoor, or both spaces for general pest control and will give you a 30 day residual ourdoors and 90 day indoors. The Cimexa Dust will last up to 10 years undisturbed in areas like wall voids.

Regularly treating your home property will help prevent pests from becoming a problem. By starting with our general pest prevention guide first, you will learn how to implement your own pest control program. We would recommend one of our General Pest Control Starter Kits to get started. Be aware that pets need to be out of treatment areas during treatment and until dry. As far a python being lose in areas, we would recommend checking with your vet for precautions.
We would recommend to get started with our General Pest Control Starter Kit, it includes all the products you need. It includes two single doses of Temprid SC, which is not a natural liquid concentrate but is safe to use indoors and outdoors. If you want to use a natural product instead you can later rotate to something like Essentria IC3.

Glue boards are an easy tool which are useful anytime, but especially if you are gone from the property for periods of time since you can check them for insect activity when you return. Glue traps can also help you identify potential specific problem areas where you may need to do some exclusion work (for example, closing gaps around a door or window). We have more great tips in our General Pest Prevention Guide here. Please let us know if you have other questions anytime.
