    Q
    Will Permethrin SFR 36.8% help treat borers on my dogwood trees? Trimming limbs up to 6" in diameter and bark is coming off the trees.
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is labeled for many types of borers and can be used on ornamental trees. For Dogwood Borers listed on page 39 of the product label, the recommended rate is 1 to 2 quarts per 100 gallons (0.32 to 0.64 fl oz per gallon / 3.2 to 6.4 fl oz per 10 gallons of water). Apply to the lower branches and trunks prior to adult emergence. Thorough coverage of bark is required for control.  Please review the product label for mix rates and application instructions. 

    Adult emergence varies according to pest species, host tree, environmental conditions and geographic location, your local Cooperative Extension Office would be a good resource to find out the best time for applications.

    Q
    Will Permethrin SFR 36.8% leave a visible residue on indoor paint and floors?
    Looking for a product that can be sprayed at the top of the walls in the garage to control spiders. Need something that wont leave stains on paint.
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% dries clear but contains petroleum distillates so may leave an oil sheen behind on some hard surfaces. It is not recommended to broadcast across hard surfaces, best to only treat cracks and crevices around the room and along baseboards, corners etc as directed on the label. It will not stain paint/walls.

    Q
    How is Permethrin SFR 36.8% safe to apply on dogs for fleas and ticks but animals need to stay out of an area until a spray application dries?
    A

    When applying Permethrin SFR 36.8% as a flea/tick dip to dogs you are using a lower rate of the product making it safer for contact.  It is still advised to try to prevent them licking themselves until dry if possible just to prevent ingest while wet.

    Q
    After applying Permethrin SFR 36.8% as the paint brush method mentioned on the product label, how long until I can mop the floors afterwards?
    How much needs to be applied or how wet should I paint the solution on? Does this require more drying time? Also, once the product has dried, am I able to mop my tile floors? I usually mop with a 50/50 mix of white vinegar and water.
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% should only be used around the perimeter of hard floor rooms, such as along baseboards and in cracks and crevices where you should avoid mopping as it will remove the product.  Inside applications are bare minimum application areas and are just a light spray/application to the area, should not be dripping.

    Q
    Can Permethrin SFR be used on sweet corn silks to control ear worms and how long lasting?
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% cannot be used on corn. Monterey Bug Buster-O would be a better option. Pyrethrins will degrade very rapidly in the sunlight. To make sure of getting the best performance, total coverage of the plant is most important.

  • Asked by Rene from Killeen Texas
    09/13/2011
    Q
    Can this product, Permethrin SFR 36.8%, be used inside for chiggers?
    A
    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is not labeled for chiggers and may not provide adequate results for you. Onslaught insecticide is labeled for chiggers and can be used both indoors and outdoors as a broadcast spray. Chiggers are not known to infest structures. Chiggers are most likely outdoors in your yard. Many people are lead to believe that the infestation is indoors because they do not feel the effects of the chigger bites right away and then are lead to believe they are being bitten at a later time. Treatments for chiggers should begin in May and could need to continue through the summer as new chiggers move into the area. Treating the entire lawn is of little benefit because chiggers avoid direct sunlight and normally will not infest areas that are mowed or otherwise well maintained. Focus treatment on the unkempt areas of the lawn and lawn edge. You can also use Onslaught to do a barrier treatment around the outside of your home and in your crawl space to stop pests from moving indoors. If you feel strongly that you are being bitten inside by something we would urge you to get a sample of the pest and have it professionally identified by an entomologist. You can find an entomologist in your area by contacting your local cooperative extension office.
