    How long does NyGuard Plus stay in the carpet?
    We have 2 kids 2 and 3 months who are on the carpet. We want to ensure its safe for them to play, on the carpet. Our concern for the new baby is that she may put her mouth on the floor.
    A

    Typically the residual of the NyGuard Plus is roughly 7 months to give you continuous flea protection. That being said, as long as you keep kids and pets off the surfaces that were sprayed until everything has had time to completely dry, it will cause them no harm to be on the surface or put their m…

    Q
    Can I still use steam to clean a carpet treated with NyGuard Plus?
    I have normally used a stick steam machine on a carpeted area that has now been treated with NyGuard Plus (I bought the Indoor Flea Tick Kit recently). Can I still use steam after this NyGuard treatment?
    A

    It is recommended that you steam treat before using a product, such as Nyguard Plus. If you steam clean after, this will remove the product from the area that was treated.

    Q
    How long after spraying on hardwood floors can it be mopped after Nyguard Plus dries ?
    A

    When treating hardwood floors with Nyguard Plus, treatment should be directed to the cracks and crevices only. There really is no reason to treat the entire floor as it is not a habitable area for most pests.

    Q
    How long does it take after the second treatment of NyGuard Plus to see effects?
    I have treated with my guard twice now for fleas and spaced them out between 14 days. It's been 3 days since my last treatment and I still have bites all over. How Ling does it usually take to get rid of them?
    A

    NyGuard Plus should be applied once every two weeks until the fleas are gone (vacuuming daily). It will take a minimum of two applications (two weeks apart) but may require more applications at these intervals depending on the level of infestation.

    Q
    Why is it imperative to vacuum 14 consecutive days after treatment with NyGuard Plus?
    A

    It is necessary to vacuum after applying NyGuard Plus (or any other flea treatment) because vacuuming pulls fleas and eggs to the surface of carpeting and also provides the stimulation the pupa (immature fleas) need to exit their eggs and expose themselves to the insecticides that have been applied.…

    Q
    How does NyGuard Plus compare to Precor IGR and its ingredients?
    A

    NyGuard Plus contains the insect growth regulator (IGR) pyriproxyfen along with insecticide, so it is an "all-in-one" product.  Precor IGR contains an IGR only and would need to be mixed with an insecticide.
