  • Asked by Jay from Harrisburg Pa
    05/02/2013
    Q
    Is Nyguard better or just more concentrated than Archer IGR? I see they have the same active ingredient.
    Which, in your opinion is more a effective IGR?
    A

    Archer Igr and Nyguard Igr are both very effective IGRs. The biggest differences between the two is the ability to hold up to sunlight outdoors. Archer is photostable for 14 days where as the NyGuard is photostable for 4-6 months. NyGuard also has a wider range of pests that are covered by its abili…

  • Asked by Kevin from United States
    05/06/2013
    Q
    Is there a more cost efficient product other than Nyguard as an IGR?
    It takes 15-20 gallons to treat around the farm every three (3) weeks. At .4 mL per gallon of water, it would take 60-80 mL. This would cost between $250.00-$350.00 just for the IGR.
    A

    Nyguard would actually be your most cost efficient product as it only needs to be applied once every 5 months outdoors. It has the longest residual outdoors to sunlight and rain over all other IGR's which only hold up about 14 days.

    Q
    I'm using Onslaught to control ticks. I'm thinking I should add an IGR. Is NyGuard IGR a good choice?
    Onslaught's Technical Bulletin recommends NyGuard IGR for a tank mix IGR, but NyGuard's label doesn't list ticks.
    A

    Nyguard IGR does indeed list ticks on the product and Nyguard IGR would be a great choice for tick control when mixed with Onslaught.

    Q
    How long do we have to wait before entering house after NyGuard IGR application?
    We just sprayed the inside of our house with nyguard and I was wondering how long do we have to wait before we can go inside? I have a 11 month old who is still crawling. Is there anything I need to do to make it safe for him?
    A

    You can re enter after the NyGuard IGR treated area has dried. Normally about 2 hours. Like with most insecticides when applied per label it is safe for children and pets to be around after it dried.

    Q
    How often can I spray Onslaught and Nyguard IGR together for bird mites?
    I'm thinking about ordering Onslaught to combine with NyGuard for a bird mite infestation. I realize that NyGuard isn't approved for bird mites, but I've heard success from others with this problem. I'm wondering how often this combination be used? Also, I've already used the Precor IGR, and I'm worried about using another IGR on top of it. Thanks for your response.
    A

    We have had several customers tell us that they have successfully used Onslaught and NyGuard together for bird mite control. Unfortunately because neither product is actually labeled for bird mites, we can not give you a definitive re-treatment time. We can say that both products do allow re-treatme…

    Q
    Will washing my walls and cleaning my carpet nullify the effects of Nylar?
    I applied Nylar to my carpet and the walls in my home a few weeks ago. It's supposed to be effective against fleas for 7 months. Does that mean I shouldn't wash my walls or clean my carpets for 7 months? Will washing and cleaning nullify the effects of Nylar and other insecticides?
