    Q
    Will NyGuard IGR help to kill clothes moths?
    I already bought a bottle of NyGuard IGR and a bottle of Talstar try to get rid of moths in my closet.
    A

    NyGuard IGR is a great insect growth regulator choice as it is labeled for clothes moths. It will not kill the insect only impede the reproductive cycle. It should be diluted with water and applied with your Talstar P. Using a clothes moth trap is also encouraged.

  • Asked by Branden from Woodburn, Oregon
    07/12/2013
    Q
    Does NyGuard repel ants?
    Is NyGuard detectable to ants? If mixed with Arilon, will ants cross over Arilon without detecting it so they will take the NyGuard into the nest?
    A
    The NyGuard IGR is not detectable to ants or any other insect so it would be picked up by the ants and transferred along to others in the colony at the same time as the Dupont Arilon insecticide you are using. Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.

  • Asked by Stefanie from Vincennes, In
    10/11/2013
    Q
    What are the names of an insecticide that stops insect reproduction?
    A

    Insecticides do not stop the reproduction cycle of the insect, they eradicate them. IGRs (insect growth regulators) halt the reproductive cycle. Some IGR's that we carry are NyGuard, Gentrol and Archer. I have included a link below to all of them that are available on our website.

  • Asked by Bill from Parkland, Fl
    04/24/2014
    Q
    When using Nyguard in a misting system with Sector how much is mixed in the 55 gallon container?
    A

    NyGuard IGR is not designed to stay in solution the way that Sector, Riptide, or similar misting concentrates are made to do, so it would not be advised to use it in a mosquito misting system. A better application for the NyGuard IGR would be in a pump sprayer or mist blower so that you can apply it to foliage in the area where it will last much longer. Please take a few moments to review our Mosquito Treatment Guide for more tips and details.

  • Asked by Kerry from Safety Harbor, Fl
    07/06/2014
    Q
    I have a 120 gallon water tank I want to use this with Bifen and spray with a water pump and hose end sprayer
    What are the recommended quantities
    A
    NyGuard IGR is typically not a product that can be used in a hose end sprayer as few sprayers will dial down to the small amount of this product that is needed per gallon. You can use it in a hand pump sprayer with Bifen IT at the rate of 1 ounce of Bifen IT and 4-8 ml of NyGuard IGR per gallon of water. Once you have treated your first time with the mixture of the two products, you can use the hose end sprayer to apply the Bifen IT again 30 days later while the NyGuard is continuing to work. The rate for a hose end sprayer for Bifen IT is the same as a pump sprayer, just put the concentrate into the reservoir, set the dial to 1 ounce and start spraying.

    Q
    Can I mix Nygar IGR with KLeen Green & Boric Acid
    Hi, Can I mix Nygar IGR, Kleen Green & Boric Acid as a good combo against many insect issues inside? Do I need something else? I usually mix 1 quart hot water, 1/2 cup Eaton brand Boric acid, then IGR (how much woudl I add of NYglar?) plus some Kleen green filled to 1 gallon in hand sprayer. Thanks
    A
    Although, we do not see why you would not be able to mix Nylar in with Kleen Green Boric acid, we can say for sure. Please contact the manufacturer of Kleen Green to make sure Nylar will not counteract the effectiveness.

  • Asked by Regina from Springfield, Mo

    Q
    What insecticide is best to mix with NyGuard for lawns for German roaches?
    We have German roaches in our yard from a used piece of furniture sitting on the curb. I am 100% sure they are German. I am using Cyper WSP monthly on the perimeter of the house but want to get rid of them in the yard as much as possible. I would like an insecticide that will last as long as possible in the elements. I would appreciate knowing application rates for both products (the Nyguard IGR and insecticide) and also how often to apply both (either separately or together). Thank you!
    A

    Cyzmic CS is a great option for use in your lawn for German roaches. This can be mixed with Nyguard IGR and sprayed at the same time. The mixing rate is 0.4 fl oz per gallon of water. This will last for approximately 30 days outdoors and can be reapplied every 21 days.

  • Asked by R. from Pa
    09/13/2018
    Q
    What is the best insecticide and IGR combination to get rid of carpet beetles?
    I had my house professionally sprayed and the exterminator used Onslaught and Nyguard. I was wondering if they are the most effective products to use. I do not have a big infestation anymore, but still feel the need to spray again. Finally, after I get rid of all of them in my home, is there something I can spray periodically to prevent carpet beetles?
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide and NyGuard IGR  are both great products to apply for carpet beetles. You should treat quarterly to the interior crevices. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Carpet Beetles for additional tips and non-chemical methods to help eliminate and prevent this insect.

  • Asked by Carol from Robbins
    11/26/2018
    Q
    Can NyGuard IGR be sprayed directly on cats and dogs?
    I have a really bad infestation in my home. I vacuum everyday, I have bathed all the pets. I cannot remove them all from the house to spray. I was told to get the Nyguard for lice spray and I could use that directly on the animals is that true?
    A

    No, neither NyGuard IGR nor NyGuard Plus is labeled to be used directly on animals. 

    FLEE Plus IGR Aerosol is an insecticide spray for dogs and cats that are at least 8 weeks of age. It kills fleas and ticks to control infestations for up to 30 days and begins working within 5 minutes of application.
