    Q
    Is Overwintering Kit for Stink Bugs, Lady Bugs, Boxelder Bugs safe to use on trees, specifically Chinese elm?
    When spraying trees are bug eggs on/in the bark of the tree or on the leaves? What is the best month to kill boxelder adults and eggs? We have B.E. bugs in and outside.
    A
    The Temprid SC that is included in the Overwintering Kit for Stink Bugs, Lady Bugs, Boxelder Bugs is perfect for spraying tree trunks and foliage, bushes, shrubs, and ornamentals to kill and control Boxelder Bugs. It will not harm trees or your Chinese Elm. Beginning a treatment regiment in early spring and continuing treatments through late fall will ensure a significant decrease in the Boxelder Bug population.

    Q
    Is there something I can do to eliminate insects flying around the sunny side of my house, or deter them from looking for a fall nesting place?
    A

    It sounds like you may be dealing with cluster flies. This is a common over-wintering pest that will gather on the warm, sunny sides of structures to look for places to hide for the winter. We have an Overwintering Pest Kit that includes a liquid spray (Bifen IT) and an insecticide dust (Cimexa) for a 2-part barrier treatment against these pests.
