  • Asked by Kevin from Cedar Key, Florida
    03/01/2017
    Q
    What is the effectiveness of Martins Permethrin 10% after it's mixed with water?
    Some invectiicides state they need to be used within 24 hours after being mixed with water. Is this the case with martin's 10% permethrin? And if so how much martins permethrin needs to be added to 16 fl oz to make a 0.10% solution? I need to make a bedding and furniture spray for sarcoptic mange.
    A

    Martins Permethrin 10% is effective once it's mixed with water, remember that water is the carrier that allows the product to be applied evenly. Just as with other insecticides, the product must be used within 24 hours of being diluted otherwise the effectiveness does decrease. According to the label, to create a .10% solution, you will need to mix 1.33 ounces per gallon of water or for a pint of solution that will equal about 0.16 oz per 16 oz of water. According to the label though, if you're doing a dog dip you will need to use at least 8 ounces in 12.5 gallons of water, please read over the label for more information and treatment dilutions. Also, we do recommend to see your pets veterinerian for treatment.

  • Asked by Katie from Alabama
    05/24/2016
    Q
    Will Martins Permethrin 10% kill scabies and bedbugs indoors?
    A

    Martins Permethrin 10% is not labeled to treat either scabies or bed bugs.  Scabies mites live only on/in the skin and we do not carry anything to treat humans. Most folks need to visit their doctor to receive the medication needed to get rid of scabies. You may spray your furniture with a product such as Steri-fab to kill anything on furniture though treating the home for scabies is usually not necessary.  If you need to treat for bed bugs we would recommend using one of our bed bug kits to ensure that you have all of the products necessary for a thorough treatment.  Before beginning any treatment, we would recommend that you get a proper identification of the pest you are dealing with, if you have not already done so, so that you can be sure you are using the right product(s) for your needs.  You can do this by contacting either a pest control company or the local cooperative extension office in your area.

  • Asked by Jeff
    03/21/2017
    Q
    How long can I store the remaining mixture of Martins Permethrin 10% in my sprayer?
    A

    You should not store mixed Martins Permethrin 10% or any other insecticide concentrate for longer that 24 hours in a sprayer. Concentrated insecticides will begin to separate which will clog the lines as well as destroy the seals in the sprayer. We recommend mixing a gallon at a time and discarding left over solution.
