I use Permethrin in conjunction with two other of your products to kill mosquitoes. I live in southwest Louisiana and as you know it is the state bird.

Heavy infestation of fleas at my home was eradicated with two doses of Permethrin SFR and Precor. Great advice from this site and daily vacuuming for two plus weeks were necessary to totally eliminate the fleas.

Not good. Sprayed 5 times. Fleas still jumping. Mixed it correctly and sprayed weekly but they didn't die.

Product is only a fair substitute for the pyrethrin it is supposed to replace. Too bad we can't get DURSBAN any more - or anything else that really works well. Order process was good. Delivery was prompt. Price was about same as local hardware store.

Works as discribed, in several different applications. I use it in and around the house with excellent results. I use it diluted as specified on outdoors clothing before trips to the farm or woods in tick and chigger infested areas without a bite. Much easier and less costly to buy bulk and dilute as needed per application.

Thank you for your comments! Keep in mind that Permethrin SFR is not formulated or approved for use on personal items such as clothing. You should only use products as they are expressly directed on the product label for both legal and safety reasons.

This product is easy to use and it works. For home use to control almost all the pests around the house inside and out. Used in Arizona for termites, scorpion's, or any spider, this product does the job. I use it at a medium strength concentration and have used it for a couple years. Thanks for providing such a good home use product :)

I live in an area that had an infestation of bedbugs, a few cases of fleas and scabies . I used Permethrin 10% to treat the latter two with great success. I do not want contact a bedbug infestation. So I purchased Permethrin SFR (36.8%) and use as a pesticide control and barrier in my apartment. I spray every 60-90 days. I have NO MORE BUGS and don't anticipate a bedbug problem. I pray.

I wish I could control my neighbors the way I control mosquitoes and other pests in my yard with this product. Unfortunately my neighbors don't help. I mix 1 1/2 oz of SFR , 1/2 oz Bifen and 1/4 oz of a good PBO per gallon of water. The PBO gives an extra kick to the other two chemicals. The permethrin gives the quick kill and the Bifen leaves some residual. Do My Own offers competitive prices and fast easy shipping.

I bought this for wasps. I works fantastic. We purchased a house in the woods with wasps all over. After wife was stung we upgraded from the spray can to this product. Fast shipping, fast killing. Keeps them away from building new nests. I will definitely purchase again from here.

I can't give this product any stars. I wanted something to control flies. This item was recommended from your website, but no help at all

Carpenter bees were distroying my home, one treatment as directed and they are gone. I know I will need to retreat for the immerging larve, but no problem. Good instructions for several insect types.

I haven't actually used this product yet, but have examined it and its smell, and it appears to be The Stuff--not just a fake synthetic. I have used permethrin in other low grade mixed pesticides--but I want something stronger.

Quick delivery. I have used it once since I recieved. Little early to tell but it appear to have been very affective. I've been using 10% in the past so plan of this working well and lasting longer. It rained 2.8" shortly after I had sprayed so that will have an affect. While I was spraying I noticed moths acting drunk within a few min.

Cicada Killer Wasps are supposed to be beneficial and harmless, but if it has a stinger, it's got to go. I bought this in hopes that it would clear the wasps out so my dogs and I can enjoy my deck in the morning where they congregated. 3 treatments later and they either died or moved on. And I still have enough pesticide for the next 4 summers if they ever decided to come back. Beats calling in a professional monthly that costs ten times as much. Once it dried, it didn't seem to bother my dogs. They love sitting in the grass and basking in the sun and enjoy it even more now that there aren't any nasty critters flying everywhere. I'll definitely continue using this stuff.

The product works well and is very affective. Since I've been using the product my bug issues have been eliminated. The product needs to be shipped in a better packaging material because the last shipment leaked into the packaging. It was wet inside and outside the package. I don't believe this is go for the handlers/shippers or the purchaser. Thank you for asking.

I like this product, I use it to get rid of fleas, ticks and termites. I spray the yard front and back and then all around the home and garage. I have used it for years and i am pleased with it. You have to be careful using it around pets, i wait a few hours before i let my dogs out in the back yard after spraying, to be cautious.

This seems to be a really good insecticide for crazy ants in the houston area. These ants are difficult to exterminate and this stuff works well.

I use Permethrin SFR 36.8% to control pesky insects around my homestead. Mixed at varying dilutions I can apply to chicken coops/runs 2X yr at clean out and if I have a northern mite infestation it's really the only solution in/around the poultry area and even on the birds . Living in a forested area ticks are a problem so I spray my dogs. I live in a mountain area where Japanese beetles will decimate anything worth growing - roses, fruit trees, raspberries, blackberries, gooseberries, currants and the list goes on... I've tried big box store products and NOTHING is as effective around my homestead s this product. The instruction booklet is quite thorough so make sure you're using the product dilution according to instructions and you'll have the best all around insecticide. And, remember because Permethrin has a long half life it continues to act as an effective insecticide for a long time so I find spraying fruit trees AFTER pollination - mid June here in Z7a is usually good for the entire season. Also be VERY careful to not spray when bees and other pollinators are present.

This works well for Fleas and Bedbugs. Need to use for about 2-3 times for fleas, eggs hatch so we do once, then again in a week and again in another week. Bedbugs, we use for about three weeks.

First I am so extremely pleased with how quickly DMOPC shipped the product for free using USPS Priority mail (at no extra cost:) I spend a lot of time in the outdoors and encounter more than my share of mosquitoes, ticks, and other nasty little critters. We had a bunch of ants getting into our house this year so I experimented and sprayed the base of the house with the 0.5% Sawyer repellent and poof, no more ants. But at around $15 for 24 ounces, it was an expensive but unbelievably effective experiment. Now I make my own 0.5% mix with the DMOPC 36.8% Permethrin. Saves me lots of $:) Sprayed it around the house and yard using an Ortho "Dial n Spray" and within a day or so, all the nasty little bugs are gone. Thank you DMOPC for your fast order processing and shipping and all the other helpful information on your web pages. DMOPC Rocks!!!

It took about two weeks, but it seems we have turned the tide on the flea problem with a dose of Archer IGR along with Permethrin SFR 36.8% - 1.

I've used this product for years and have had excellent success with it. In all that time no bug of any sort has ever crossed into my home. I stand behind this product 100%.

I was having a problem with ants and other small insects. I sprayed around the baseboards with Permethrin SFR 36.8%-1 and the problem is solved. I would purchase it again.

I used a hose end sprayer set at 1.5 oz for the entire yard, something I later read was the right setting for the foundation perimeter only. At that mixing ratio I would've expected to not see any ants setting up hills in the cracks of my driveway, although I didn't spray the driveway, so that may be the reason why they still exist. I occasionally see an ant crawling on the bricks of the foundation of the house, and I sprayed that well. However, I no longer see yellow jackets flying into the grass and haven't seen an earwig since spraying. The spray also seems to have wiped out an infestation of caterpillars in the trees I sprayed. Except for the ants, I'm very pleased!

I have a infestation of cockroaches it has been tiedious, but I think its finally working. treatment after treatment. nothing has worked. its decent stuff, but for future refrence if your going to try and tackle this mountain by yourselves use bait first. Sereously it has taken near a month and a half and they continue to come back. these little bugs are resiliant. I purchased more cyphermethrine I bought this, because it has a broader spectrum for killing. This stuffs poisonous to mice cats rats and other unwanted pests, but I hear cypher works better for bugs.
