We usually do not recommend Permethrin SFR 36.8% for treating for bedbugs. This is because of the high chance of resistance. Permethrin SFR is not labeled for use on furniture or mattresses. Instead, we recommend you use a product called Transport Mikron. This product has dual active ingredients to avoid resistance by the bedbugs and it is labeled for use on furniture and mattresses. Transport Mikron is mixed at 1.25 fl oz per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft. For more information on treating for bedbugs, please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Bedbugs.

see nothing about the small 30ml separate portion of the bottle.
Is this a dual mix, in addition to adding the water to the sprayer? I am interested in killing mosquitos and flys.

The Permethrin SFR as well as most other insecticides on the market has a built in measuring reservoir on the bottle for determining how much product you need to use per gallon without needing an additional measuring device for the product.

Q

Would this product be safe to spray around an organic garden?
I have an organic garden, but I also have a severe tick problem in my fenced in yard. I only live on about 3/4 an acre but there are deer ticks all over it, and I have small children. I want to spray something in/around my yard, which would be around my garden, but not on the plants in the garden beds. Is this safe, or is there a chance that this will get down into the soil and come into contact with my plant's roots?

A

Permethrin SFR 36.8% is labeled for ticks and can be used in your lawn. The product should not be used within the drip line of the garden. We normally recommend using it at least 2-3 feet away. Once the product is dry, it is safe for your children to go into the lawn. Please let us know if you have …

Because of the natural boring behavior of the beetle they are protected from topically applied insecticides and systemic insecticides (those injected into the tree or applied as a root drench) have proven ineffective for pine beetle infestations. Healthy trees can be protected before the beetles attack by topically spraying them with a synthetic pyrethroid like Permethrin SFR. Unfortunately there is no easy solution when it comes to pine beetles. Infected trees should be cut down (before the newly hatched beetles fly out of the trees in the spring/summer) and the wood burned or chipped, while other still healthy trees should be sprayed annually to protect them. The tree should be sprayed from the ground to 15 ft up the trunk to prevent future infestations. You should contact your local cooperative extension office to find out the best time to start spraying in your region.

Q

Can I mix Permethrin SFR 36.8% (about 8 months old) and 10% together?
I have two bottles...one is SFR 36.8 and other one is 10% (about 3 years old). Can I mix them together in an empty dried drinking water jug - gallon size?

A

It is not recommended to mix Permethrin 36.8% and Permethrin 10% together in a water jug for storage. They should remain in their original containers at room temperature. They have a 3 year shelf life from the date of purchase if stored away from extreme temperatures.

Can I mix Permethrin SFR 36.8% with Temprid SC? Will one make the other not work as well?

A

There is no valid reason to mix Temprid SC and Permethrin SFR 36.8% together. Permethrin SFR 36.8% is a synthetic pyrethroid and Temprid SC already contains a synthetic pyrethroid, so there would be nothing to gain by mixing these products together. Making a pesticide too strong can actually b…

Permethrin SFR 36.8% is a synthetic pyrethroid and Temprid SC already contains a synthetic pyrethroid, so there would be nothing to gain by mixing these products together. Making a pesticide too strong can actually backfire. Areas that are treated with this overly concentrated spray will be repellent and insects will simply avoid the treated areas prolonging the infestation.
