    Q
    Will Permethin SFR kill paper wasps on contact like the long distant sprays you can purchase?
    A
    Permethrin SFR will NOT kill wasps/bees on contact.  The wasps/bees will die, but not immediately.  It can take a few minutes for them to succumb to the product.  Wasp Freeze is your best choice if you are looking to knock down wasps/bees instantly.

    Q
    Is Permethrin SFR effective for outdoor for Mosquito control? Does it need an IGR like ExciteR with it?
    Looking to spray small wooded section in back yard and 2 trees.
    A
    Permethrin SFR is not labeled for general mosquito control so we do not recommend it for this use. We usually recommend using Talstar P for mosquito control and it can be used with an IGR such as Nyguard IGR to help sterilize the adults. (Exciter is a pyrethrum which causes a faster kill but it is not an IGR).

  • Asked by Lucinda from Gonzales, La
    10/22/2013
    Q
    Should I use Permethrin SFR or Hy-Yield 38 Plus for red ants?
    I am having a bad problem with red ants coming inside of my home from under the doors. I am currently using the Talstar granules which kills the ants, but I keep finding dead ants that have come inside.
    A
    The Permethrin SFR 36.8% and the Hi-Yield 38% Plus both have the same active ingredient and will give comparable results so either would be a good choice as a barrier spray around the home and door and window frames.

  • Asked by Dee from Texas
    07/11/2014
    Q
    Permethrin SFR suggested for use against Bed Bugs?
    A local pest control supplier suggested use of Permethrin SFR in conjunction with NyGuard to combat our Bed bug problem. I see after purchase that "bed bugs" is not listed on the bottle. Have others had success with this product for this use or might the sales person have been misinformed. I don't want to waste my time or money using this product if I will not be expected to see results. Thinking of switching to Temprid SC or Transport Mikron after reading up on your website. If I did switch to either of those- could you recommend which has better success and would I still be able to use the NyGuard in the solution mix? Thanks!
    A
    We do not recommend to apply Permthrin indoors at all or for bed bugs. We recommend using one of our Bed Bug kits. It really takes more than one product to eradicate bed bugs. This is why we have specially put our kits together.

    Q
    Can you mix Permethrin and NyGuard IGR to treat yard for fleas?
    Had a cat have a litter of babies under my house and I have a little flea problem. Trying to treat before it becomes a big problem
    A
    Yes, we recommend that you mow your lawn 1-2 days prior to your first application of Permethrin and NyGuard IGR. You will wait two weeks and provide a second application. You can perform a third and/or fourth application if needed depending on the level of fleas (waiting two weeks in between treatments).

  • Asked by Sylvia from Texas
    08/09/2014
    Q
    Can I mix Permethrin SFR with Onslaught?
    Trying to rid fleas, bird mites and ticks.
    A

    These products should not be mixed together. There is no valid reason to mix Onslaught  and  Permethrin SFR together.  They are both synthetic pyrethroids 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.

    Q
    Does Permethrin kill yellow flies
    I've been bitten 3 times and have had a bad reaction...to yellow flies.
    A
    Yellow flies are a relatively new species so there is not anything labeled for it just yet and no research really as to what works for them.  Permethrin SFR may help to eliminate them as it labeled for mosquioes and flies but it is not labeled for mosquitoes around the yard. Something like Talstar P could be used and may offer some relief.  There is just not enough information available about this new pest.
