    Hate Fleas!

    By Martin on 08/12/2012

    We were having a very annoying flea problem in our yard. My son could just walk in the yard and the fleas would be on his legs! I wanted to use Permethrin outside but was a little uncertain what type of permethrin product to buy. I read the literature and was sure that this was what I needed. I mixed the the Hi-Yield 38 according to the labeled directions adding NyGuard to the solution, and sprayed the lawn. Thank God we haven't seen any more fleas in our yard. I've got a happy wife!

    Used for Log Home carpenter bee drilling

    By Rick on 04/20/2012

    Great product! Used for about 5 years now on our log home and the bees do not drill once you spray. Mix 1.6 ounces per gallon and treat once you begin to see bees appear in early spring. DoMyOwnPestControl has the best prices, especially if you purchase a gallon. Great folks to deal with...Very fast shipping also!

Q
Can you use Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control inside your home?

Here recently we have been getting a LOT of wolf spiders come in our home. It's come to the point that I am even scared to walk down the hallway at night because I am scared I will step on one and it will bite me. Please tell me what I can use to kill them and make it to where the won't come back.

A
Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control is for outdoor use only. We recommend that you use Cyper WP for spider control.  Cyper WP is our most popular spider control product and it can be used indoors and outdoors to help eliminate not just the spiders themselves, but also the insects that they prey upon. By killing the other insects, you remove the spiders food source which will help stop new spiders from moving in. Please take a few moments to read over our How To Get Rid of Spiders article which will help teach you how to make your home and property less favorable to spiders.

Q
Will Hi-Yield 38-Plus work for cockroaches?

what is concentration for cockroaches

A
Hi Yield 38 Plus can be used outdoors only for cockroaches (do not use indoors). According to the product label: Mix 1.6 fl Oz. (3 1/4 Tablespoons) of this product per 1 gallon of spray solution to make a 0.5% spray emulsion. Spray a 6 to 8 foot wide band of soil around the perimeter of the house. Treat the foundation wall to a height of 2 to 3 feet. Use a spray volume of 2 to 10 gallons of 0.5% emulsion per 1,000 square feet. If mulch or debris is present, a higher volume application rate may be needed to ensure adequate coverage. Note: Residual control will vary depending on exposure of the treated area to weathering conditions (temperature, sunlight, moisture). Retreat on a monthly schedule while insects are likely to be active. If you need to treat indoors we recommend our Roach Control Kit #2. This kit comes with all of the necessary products needed to treat an indoor infestation and enough product to use outdoors to stop new roaches from moving in.
