    Q
    Can I spray just 1 room with NyGuard Plus?
    We had a company come in and use NYguard for our flea problem. 2/6 rooms still have activity after the 2 week mark with proper vacuuming. Can I spray 1/2 bedrooms and shut the doors while still staying in the house? The rooms will not be touched until 5 hours later.
    A

    It is usually recommended to have everyone leave the home while its being treated and stay out until all surfaces have dried, even if only part of the home is being sprayed. We do understand some homes have situations where that isn't always feasible, and the home may need to be treated in stages or sections. After thoroughly vacuuming the rooms you still have activity within, you can spray the NyGuard Plus and then close the door off, and place a towel at the bottom of the door to stop any additional airflow from emerging, and allow the room to dry for several hours before resuming use.   You can reapply Nyguard Plus every 2 weeks if needed for active infestations.

    Q
    Does NyGuard Plus harm toads?
    I was spraying basement window at garden level. There was a toad under a leaf that I didn't notice until afterwards. Just in case they may have gotten any on them I moved them well away from the area and rinsed them with 4 bottles of water immediately.
    A

    While we are unaware of any case studies of NyGuard Plus on toads, we always suggest to avoid applying to non-target animals and when they are in the area.

    Q
    Carpet beetles in kitchen?
    I bought the Carpet Beetle control kit and used all three components. I put Cimexa dust in all the floor and baseboard cracks I could access, but I didn't want to place it where it could be disturbed and become airborne. I am seeing carpet beetles on my kitchen counters. What products from the carpet beetle kit can I use to treat them here? If I remove all food and appliances, can I spray Nyguard plus here?
    A

    You may use NyGuard Plus on hard surfaces. It has a long residual and is non-staining.

    Q
    Does NyGuard kill tick eggs?
    I was told by the office of our pest control company it does not and needed to be reapplied every 7-10 days, however, the technician said it did and you spray every 30 days.
    A

    It acts on the immature life stages of insects and prevents those insects from becoming full functioning and reproducing adults.   By breaking the reproductive cycle of these insects,  NyGuard helps reduce overall insect populations.

    Q
    Does NyGuard Plus protect against all ticks, even dog ticks?
    Does this work on American dog ticks? I live on Long Island where ticks are a large problem. Does this work on most if not all variety of US ticks? Also does this kill all stages of tick life? It's listed specifically that it kills flea eggs as larva but does it also kill tick eggs and nymph?
    A

    The NyGuard Plus is labeled for tick species in general and when used per the label instructions within your home where ticks may be present or would look to hide it will control them as well as any fleas in the area. While its not specifically labeled to control the eggs and nymphs its technology is such that you can effectively get rid of the entire population in the home as long as the proper treatment steps are being taken.
