    Q
    How long does it take for Viper to dry on carpeting?
    When I spray my partially finished basement which includes partial carpeted areas, how long before it dries on the carpet and is safe to go back downstairs? I've just checked it after nearly 3 hours since I sprayed, and it's still wet.

    Q
    Sprayed viper and ig regulator in my oven. Is it safe to cook?
    I sprayed in my oven and waited a few hours. Then i preheated it to 450

    Neither Martins Viper Insecticide nor Martins IGR are labeled to be used inside ovens.  We would recommend reaching out to ChemTech for the best advice after an off label application. 1-866-897-8050
     
    The best way to treat ovens is by thoroughly cleaning the inside as directed from the manufacturers manual.

    Q
    is this a good mix with Bifen xts?
    Would this be a good mix with Bifen XTS? I'm looking for something with a little more rapid knockdown. I'm leaning toward Viper, ExciteR and Permethrin SFR.
    A
    Martins Viper Insecticide should not be mixed with Bifen XTS.  However, for faster knockdown you could consider adding a synergist additive like ExciteR Insecticide to same tank mixture as a residual insecticide like Bifen XTS.

  • Asked by Cheyenne from Paul's Valley
    10/05/2021
    Q
    Can Martins Viper Insecticde be tank mixed with Martin's Permethrin?
    A

    No, you should not mix Martins Viper Insecticide with another insecticide such as Martins Permethrin.  

    There is no valid reason to mix 2 residual insecticides together, it would not make either product work better or produce better results, though it could make treated areas repellent to insects lessening the effectiveness of the treatment as they do need to contact areas for the product to work.

    Q
    Would insects build tolerance to Martins Viper? Should different insecticides be used occasionally?
    A

    It is possible that after using the same active ingredient in a product over long periods of time could possibly cause resistance issues. This is not a for sure thing that will happen, and if it does, there is not a specific time frame. To prevent the possibilities of resistance issues, you could rotate the Viper Insecticide with another product that contains a different active ingredient as long as you are following the instructions on the product labels every few years

    Q
    Can Martins Viper Insecticide be applied to vinyl siding for perimeter insect control?
    With my front porch lights on, the bugs are horrible. I'll have to find another way of lighting my yard if I can't get these bugs under control.
    A

    Martins Viper Insecticide should dry clear when used as directed on the product label.  That being said it does contain petroleum distillates so can leave an oily sheen behind so we would recommend doing a small test area to ensure the product will not stain. 

    Onslaught Insecticide would be an alternative for outdoor perimeter pest control that is water based and will not stain or disoclor surfaces.
