    VIPER inside insect spray really works

    By Sharon on 03/06/2014

    We have used this Viper insect spray for many years and it is GREAT. We ordered it from DO My OWN PEST CONTROL because of the savings. We got more product for the cost. We willl continue to order online, not at our local dealer. The 16 oz that was purchased saved me 4 times on what I spend locally.

    Kills insects

    By Andy on 01/03/2015

    I bought this concentrate last month. So far, no bugs except for a couple of dead spiders. It does have a small odor so spray (inside) when you're leaving your house for a while. Odor does not last long.

    It Works

    By Jean on 10/02/2015

    We noticed a few roaches in early spring so we went to Lowes and purchased the Black Flag Fogger 6 per box. Over the summer months the roaches grew

    Outstanding Product

    By Gwen on 03/08/2014

    While living in Ohio, I had a major spider problem in my basement, which was slowly going into the rest of the house. An exterminator recommended this product. The concentrate lasts a long time producing 2 to 3 one gallon spray bottles. Once applied, continues killing pests for weeks. Unfortunately, I'm now in NY, where Viper is not permitted. Not sure I'll find another product as good as Martin's Viper.

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.
