I paid too much for the butt-crack pest control tech to come out to my place and attempt to maintain my home/property. After watching this bozo do a poor job and asking 20 questions about his profession, I became convinced I could do a better job myself. After researching the requirements I bought a good sprayer + respirator and now I save $100s doing the spraying myself. I only wish I had done this earlier. Permerthrin is fairly safe to use. Simply follow mix + application directions.
I needed this in a hurry (Like Yesterday) and DoMyOwnPestControl.com was the only one online that I found offering next day shipping at an extra cost. The product worked very well the first time, but I retreated the area after 7 days just to be safe and issue was resolved 100%. Martins has a great built in measurement system and for my experience both Martins Permethrin 10% and DoMyOwnPestControl.com exceeded expectations. Thank You!
Mosquitoes are very heavy this year. Lots of rain and wet areas, causing a bumper crop of mosquitoes. This product knocks them down in a few minutes. Working in the yard would be impossible without this product.
Can Martins Permethrin 10% be used on fruit trees to control Peach Tree borers?
A
Martins Permethrin is not labeled for use on fruit trees. You can use a product that contains permethrin but it must be labeled for use on non bearing edible vegetation such as Tengard SFR. Unfortunately once the beetles have already infested the bark of a peach tree there are not any viable treatment options. In cases of infestation the general recommendation is to simply protect the surrounding trees with preventative sprays with a product labeled for such a use.

Can this product Martins Permethrin 10% be used in 55 gallon spray systems?
A
The label states that if using in a for or misting system for mosquitoes, flies and gnats to dilute at the rate of 1 quart of Martins permethrin per 25 gallons of water. So for 55 gallons you would use roughly 70 ounces of solution. However it does not specifically state on the label the use of a 55 gallon drum misting system so you may still want to check with the manufacturer to make sure it is okay for this type of application. You can reach Control Solutions at 1-281-892-2500.
Can I spray the Martins Permethrin 10% on human bedding (mattresses) and carpet?
We have been afflicted with the scabies mite and need to get rid of it.
A
This product cannot be used on mattresses and can only be used as a light spray on carpets for flea or beetle control indoors. Scabies mites do not infest the home, they are a dermal(skin) problem that must be addressed by a dematologist and the creams or medicines they prescribe. There are not products for scabies mites on mattresses because they do not live on those surfaces. If you are looking for something to spray on the surface as a "just in case" contact kill, you could use Sterifab. All other treatment of scabies will be administered by doctors.
