    Q
    Is Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin safe for fish?
    Can this product be used on land around a living pond? Regardless of how far away from the pond, during a heavy rain, all the are drains into the pond. Will this harm my fish?
    A

    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin applications should be kept at least 25 feet away from any water, and you should avoid areas where runoff is possible as the product is highly toxic to aquatic life.  As long as you apply with 24 hours of no rain so the product as time to dry, it is safe to use and will not runoff.

    In areas where runoff or overspray to aquatic areas is a concern, you can use natural options like the EcoVia EC or Essentria IC3 which are safe for aquatic life.

  • Asked by Daniel from Firestone
    04/21/2021
    Q
    Can Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin be used in the soil where Peach Borers have started on roots? Also on the trunk where there holes to kill them? How often should you spray for them and to start?
    A

    Hi Yield 38 Plus is not safe for use on or near any edible vegetation. You would need to keep this off of the foliage and bark, and away from the root zone. Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew or Sevin Insecticide Concentrate would be a great option for a spray on the foliage, bark, and roots of the tree. You can also use a trap like the Monterey Peach Tree Borer Trap to try and reduce populations on your tree.

    Q
    Does Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control kill fire blight?
    My flowering pear tree has fire blight. Will Hi-Yield 38-Plus work for this?
    A

    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin is an insecticide only and will not affect any diseases.  There is a great article here on this disease that recommends liquid copper.  Bonide Liquid Copper Fungicide Concentrate is labeled for fireblight on pear trees, but it does need to be applied as a spray application since a systemic fungicide would not be effective.  You would mix 0.5 to 2.0 fluid ounces of product per gallon of water, and the label states, "for fireblight apply in the dormant period, during season bloom, or as in-season cover spray.  Do not exceed one application during the fall, late dormant period.  Do not exceed one application between silver tip and green tip growth stages....Do not exceed 1 gallon of product per 100 gallons of water.  Repeat application every 7-10 days during bloom and growing season if needed."

This can be used in places around your kitchen and/or rooms where you have seen activity. This kit also includes Temprid Ready To Spray, a non-repellent spray for use indoors.

  • Asked by Mitch from Horseshoe Bend, Arkansas
    08/23/2019
    Q
    Can I use Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin in a barn and chicken coop to get rid of flies, fleas, and other insect pests?
    Will it harm cows and chickens?
    A

    Hi-Yield 38 Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin cannot be used indoors in a barn or chicken coop; it can be used outdoors around barns. You could use Onslaught Insecticide around and inside barns and chicken coops to treat where flies rest and to treat the ground for fleas. We also recommend adding NyGuard IGR insect growth regulator for flea control. You can apply these products while the animals are not present, and they can return once the application is dry. Keep in mind that for the best fly control, you will likely need to use a combination of insecticides, bait, traps, and on-animal treatments for biting flies. We also recommend that you inspect for rodent issues in the case of fleas since rats and mice can bring parasites into a barn.
