  • Asked by Dawn from Prescott Az
    05/27/2013
    Q
    Can you use 38-plus to treat scale on Pinon Pines?
    I see that Permthrin 2.5, scale is listed. Why is it not listed on the Hi-Yield 38-plus?
    A
    We really cannot say for sure why the manufacturer did not include scale on their listed pests on the product label. We do recommend that you stick with a product that specifically lists your target pest for best results. Most of the master gardeners recommend Acephate as the needed active ingredient to control this scale. We carry Acephate 97 UP and it is labeled for control of the crawling stage of the scale.

    Q
    Will Hi-Yield 38-Plus work against termites?
    My brother is having a termite issue and someone recommended this product. Was wondering if this is the product for him?
    A
    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin is labeled for localized treatments to the soil for Subterranean termites. The mix rate is 3.2 fl oz per 2 gallons of water and will be applied directly against the foundation around the entire perimeter of the home. You can read the application instructions for termite treatments starting on page 11 of the product label.  

    Taurus SC is our most recommended product for Subterranean Termite control as it will last for 10 years in the soil and will eradicate and entire termite colony within 90 days. You can read more in on Taurus SC,  termite trenching and how to fully protect your home in our How to Treat for Subterranean Termite Guide.

    Q
    Can Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin be used to spray a tree that has aphids?
    I have a large indoor ficus (about 6 feet tall). It has a bad aphid infestation, can I spray this product on the plant? If not, can you recommend another product that can be used?
    A

    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin can be used to treat aphids, but it can only be used outdoors.  If you need to treat a ficus tree indoors, we would recommend a product like Talstar P.  Talstar is one of our most popular products for aphids as well as many other insects.

    Can Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control 38% Permethrin be used on vegetable plants for cut worms and bugs?

  • Asked by Carl from Colorado Springs, Co
    08/02/2015
    Q
    How do I mix Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin for scorpions?
    I have been getting scorpions in my home. Several products seem to kill them but not wipe them out. I have just purchased Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin and need to know about best ratio for a gallon of water.
    A

    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin  should be mixed at 0.8 fluid ounces per gallon of water. While you could use the Hi-Yield 38 Plus for scorpion control, a better option would be something that sits on the surface better and lasts longer. Cy-Kick CS and Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion spray are the two best options for scorpion control. Both products are easy to mix with water and spray around the home. Not only will they kill scorpions, but will also kill all the other insects present around your home that they are feeding on. Since scorpions have thicker skin, you will need to spray a wider barrier around your home. Spray 2-3 feet up on the side and a minimum of 6 feet out on the ground. Make sure to also spray other entry points of the home like where wires/pipes enter the house, window frames and door frames.
