    Q
    What is the best product for yellow jacket bees. I have used aspicide with no effect
    A
    You may consider using Delta Dust Insecticide to dust entry points. As they come in/out they will get the product on their bodies & take it back with them. They will then distribute it among each other & kill the entire colony. Residual products such as Permethrin SFR 36.8% will only affect those that come in contact with treated areas. However, since Permethrin is an oil based product, it will discourage them from rebuilding their nest there

    Q
    Will Permethrin kill sewer flys and is it safe for drains?
    We have two showers and three sinks that drain into a separate grey water tank that we use for watering landscaping. The tank seems to promote sewer flys and we haven't found anything yet that is effective in eliminating them. Thanks
    A

    We would not recommend using Permethrin SFR for this use in homes. Please check out our Drain Fly Kit to help with this. Nibor-D is also a great option for drain flies.

    Q
    Can a marker dye be used with Permethrin SFR? Do you recommend any particular brand marker dye?
    A

    Yes, the Permethrin SFR 36.8% may be used with a turf marker/dye. Add a small amount of the Turf Mark Blue to any liquid insecticide concentrate, herbicide or fungicide and see exactly where you've sprayed. Turf Mark Blue is mixed at a rate of 1/2 - 1 oz. of concentrate per 1 to 3 gallons of liquid insecticide. When applied to turf, the dye disappears within 24-48 hours. Do not use for general pest control treatments around a home as the product will stain and can be difficult to remove.

    Q
    Are sweatbees a targeted pest of Permethrin SFR? If not what product would you recommend?
    A

    Although Permethrin SFR 36.8% does not include "sweat bees" as a target pest, other various types of bees are included, so it is likely that this product could provide some control, if used as directed on the product label.

    Q
    Can permethrin kill parasites that burrow in to my skin and my dogs
    I have an infestation of some type of burrowing parasite or mite whatever it is and I need help. I have tried 100s of products nothing works
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is not labeled for any type of parasite or mites on dogs or humans so we cannot recommend it be used. Scabies mites live on/in the skin and we do not carry anything to treat humans. Most folks need to visit their doctor to receive the medication needed to get rid of scabies. We would recommend reaching out to your vet to get your dogs issue diagnosed and correctly treated.

    Q
    Can I spray Permethrin SFR 36.8% on luggage?
    A

    We do not advise spraying Permethrin SFR on your luggage as it is not on the label for that, also its oily and has an odor. You should try an aerosol like Bedlam Plus Aerosol to treat the seams and folds of the luggage. You should pay extra attention around the wheels, zipper and handles when spraying.

    Q
    Many answers on this say not to use Permethrin SFR on furniture, but the label says it's ok.
    Why does Do My Own say not to? We are treating for carpet beetles.
    A

    Manufacturers sometimes update product label information over time. Some questions were answered previously before the update to the product label, and we have not gotten to update the answers on all of the questions previously asked yet. Thank you for pointing this specific question/answer out, and we will get this corrected as soon as possible.

    Q
    Is it safe for killing flies indoors?
    How does Pemetheran work? We have a log cabin and have tons of flies coming in all during the seasons.We caulked every crack and hole we could possibly find. Could it be the're laying eggs between the logs and then those eggs are hatching later. Does Pemetheran leave a residue on windows if we try it?
    A

    Yes, Permethrin SFR 36.8% can be used indoors for flies. We recommend spraying this in cracks and crevices. It can leave a residue after spraying that will kill flies that contact the treated area long enough to get a lethal dose. We would recommend using hot soapy water with a mild detergent to remove any unwanted resiude.  We would also recommend reviewing our guide on how to get rid of flies.
