    Q
    How should I dilute Permethrin 10% for a tick infestation in the house?
    i started to see ticks a week ago, found one on me.but 5 days latter i see few every day. i applied Frontline on my dogs. I also have chinchillas. but pets are free from any ticks, i just didn't find any yet on them. So i bought permethrin already and should receive it tomorrow. What is the ratio for tick treatment? After it dries completely is it safe for all my pets? and with what time intervals i should apply the treatments? One month or 2 weeks?
    A

    When applying Martins Permethrin 10% indoors, you should use 1.33 oz. per gallon of water. It would be safe for animals to re-enter the area after your application is dry. You can reapply in 2 weeks for heavy infestations or once a month for prevention. We also recommend treating outdoors with the Permethrin concentrate. Please see our Tick Treatment Guide for more tips and information.

    Yes, Martins Permethrin 10% is labeled for cockroaches, and will kill roaches it comes in contact with in the treated areas. However, to eradicate roaches we would also recommend using a roach bait gel in conjunction with it as well as an IGR(Insect Growth Regulator).

    Q
    Can I use Permethrin 10% on a dog by using a syringe and measured in the mouth, and if so, how much by weight?

    No, Martin's Permethrin 10% can be only applied to listed animals exactly as directed on the product label as a spray, dip, or sponge. Permethrin works on listed insects by contact only (not systemically) and could be very harmful to animals if used incorrectly.

    Q
    What is the ratio of Martins Permethrin 10% to spray outdoors for boxelders bugs?
    The outside of the house is covered in boxelders bugs. Does this product leave stains on house paint, and will it damage plants?
    A

    Martins Permethrin 10% is not labeled for boxelder bugs so would not be recommended.  While it might kill them, the manufacturer either has not tested it against them or did and found it to not be very effective.  A better recommendation would be to use the stronger Permethrin SFR which lists boxelder bugs on the label.  It will not stain and is safe when used as directed on and around ornamental plants, do not apply during the heat of the day to avoid burning.  You would use 1 2/3 fl oz per gallon of water and thoroughly spray tree trunks (if found on), building siding or wherever pests congregate, but not to the point of runoff.

    Q
    Can you fog with Martin's Permethrin 10%?
    My vet recommended fogging my goats and chickens to rid them of mites and few times a week as needed, and I don't see this type of application listed.
    A

    Martin's Permethrin 10% is labeled for mites and fogging poultry houses, swine houses, cattle and horse barns, etc. Per the label, “FOG OR FINE MIST: Apply, directing the spray toward the ceiling and upper corners until the area is filled with mist. Use about 2 ounces per 1000 cubic feet of space. For best results, close doors and windows before spraying and keep closed for 10-15 minutes. Remove animals prior to treatment, ventilate before reoccupying. Dilute 8 ozs. in 6.25 gals. water.”

    Q
    Can Martins Permethrin be used on clothing that children will wear for prevention of tick/Lyme contact?
    A

    Neither Martins Permethrin or any other permethrin concentrate product that we carry or others carry should be used on clothing for anyone unless the product label specifically says you can use it in that manner and gives you the mix rates for that use. You can look for specifically formulated aerosol or wash products for preventing ticks normally in the hunting sections or camping sections of stores.
