    Q
    Will Permethrin SFR 36.8% kill sod webworms in a St Augustine lawn?
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% can be applied to the lawn for treating for sod webworms. You will mix 0.4 – 0.8 fl. oz. of Permethrin SFR in 4 to 25 gallons of water per 1000 square feet. Use the higher rate for fast knockdown and increased residual control. Dense or excessive (greater than 3 inches) lawn height and arid conditions may require higher volume application rates. Repeat application if necessary. Application in combination with compatible surfactants or wetting agents may enhance penetration.

  • Asked by Andrea from Ca.

    Q
    Does Permethrin SFR 36.8% kill rodent mites?
    I read in a university study that it will.
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is not labeled for rat mites specifically. It is important to be absolutely sure you are actually dealing with rat mites. Have the suspected rat mite identified by a reputable source, such as your local cooperative extension office or a reputable pest control operator. you must first find the source of the infestation, usually a rat nest or a dead rat on or in the home. Removal of the infested nest or rat(s) and a thorough cleanup is necessary. For treatment in the home, we recommend you frequently vacuum all carpet and upholstery and dispose of the bag or vacuum contents in a sealed bag outdoors. Spray Sterifab on couches, chairs and other upholstered furniture where you may spend time resting. Use MotherEarth Dust in all cracks and crevices around the perimeter of the room. Apply a thin coat of MotherEarth dust to rugs and carpets. Rake (not sweep) nap back and forth, causing dust to enter rug or carpet. Let product sit overnight. Repeat application as necessary and vacuum every 3 - 4 days for effective control. MotherEarth dust does not have a fast knockdown, it can take several days for insects to die after they contact the dust. Onslaught can be used for a faster knockdown. Thoroughly apply as a fine particle broadcast spray using a hand pump sprayer to infested rugs and carpets and other cracks and crevices around the perimeter of each room. Put all clothes through the dryer on high heat to help kill mites and their eggs.We have had many customers use the above recommendations with great success. Most customers report that it can take several months to get rid of all of the mites. Since there has not been much research on controlling rodent mites this program is only a suggestion and may not work for every situation. Finding and removing the source of the infestation is very important and is the key to getting rid of the mites for good.

    Q
    Dog Treatment using Permethrin SFR
    Many flea and tick treatments contain 44% Permethrin that is spot treated directly to a do a dog's back. Can this be product be used full strength in the same manner? Just a very small amount as in advantix?
    A

    Permethin SFR can be used on dogs for flea and tick control as directed on the product label only.   It is a concentrate that must be mixed with water first.  You will mix ¼ fl. oz. of concentrate to 1 pt. water and use 1-2 fl. oz. of dilution to spray on each animal. Spot treat back, face, legs tail and ears. If you would like to "dip" the dogs you will use ¼ fl. oz. to 1¼ gallons water and thoroughly wet the dog to the skin with sponge or rag. Let drip dry.  You can find these instructions on page 16 of the Permethrin SFR product label.

  • Asked by Jeffrey from Narragansett, Ri
    04/08/2012
    Q
    What is the recommended concentration for general tick control?
    The label is VERY vague "Mix 0.4
    A
    Product labels are indeed vague in many cases as this gives the applicator leeway to use different concentrations for different situations. You should use the higher usage rate for heavy infestations, faster knockdowns and longer lasting residuals and lower usage rates for maintenance sprays. You will need to use higher volumes of water to get the product over thick, dense vegetation. If you are treating your lawn for ticks we recommend you use the higher specified usage rate of 0.8 fl oz Permethrin SFR for 1,000 sq ft using whatever volume of water is needed. If you are treating up close to your home you are permitted to use the .5% emulsion (1 2/3 fl. oz. per gallon of water) per 1,000 sq ft as a perimeter treatment.

    Q
    What is the dilution rate for Permethrin SFR 36.8% to treat fire ant mounds?
    I've read the directions but they are not clear on % or amount to mix/gallon of water for the mounds and 4 foot diameter around the mounds.
    A

    There are 3 mix rates for applying  Permethrin SFR 36.8% with one gallon of water when treating fire ant mounds. Typically you would use the low or mid rate for treating fire ant mounts unless the mounds are greater than 12 inches in diameter per the product label. You can find the mix rate Chart on page 14 of the product label:  

    Mix Rates per one gallon of water: Low:0.5% (1.6 fl oz), Mid:1.0% (3.3 fl oz), High: 2% (6.6 fl oz). If using 2 gallons of water to treat the mounds, you will double the mix rate.

  • Asked by Sara from Ohio
    10/07/2016
    Q
    Is the combo Permethrin + NyGuard safe in the home for an 11-month old who is crawling?
    This combo was applied and we waited the full drying period before returning to the home. There was a strong odor and I am hesitant to allow my child to crawl on the floors. I see posts about the permethin not being safe for even clothing application, so I worry it poses a risk after carpet application. Is there harm in allowing my child to now roam about the house? Why is it dangerous when wet, but safe when dry.
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% cannot be applied to clothing.  Permethrin SFR 36.8% mixed with Nyguard IGR is safe for children and pets after drying. There is a slight odor, but that dissapates over a short time. In the original wet state, it can irritate skin. That is why we recommend to keep children and pets away until dried. If the treated area were to get wet it does not "reactivate".

  • Asked by Konika from Gastonia
    10/19/2016
    Q
    Will Permethrin SFR 36.8% work for chigger control?
    We had our home built last year & never had issues except mosquitos. But we dug for a pool this summer & all of a sudden I learned about chiggars. They tore us up so much worse than mosquito bites. I bought the 10% until I could get someone to spray. But now that I'm learning more, I'd like to take care of our issue's. The pool backs up to a small sparsely wooded single line of mainly pines. Just wondering about best mixture & frequency when it starts to get hot again.
    A

    Unfortunately, Permethrin SFR 36.8% is not labeled for chiggers. We would recommend Talstar P for that. This would give you lasting control, has no odor, and dries clear

  • Asked by Yoel from Miami, Fl
    10/05/2015
    Q
    Can you mix Permethrin SFR with Talstar P for added residual?
    This is mainly to treat for mosquitoes.
    A

    No, Permethrin SFR and Talstar P are both pyrethroid based insecticides that have about the same 3 to 4 week residual outdoors. Therefore, there would be no benefit to mix these two insecticides together in a tank mixture. If you'd like a longer lasting insecticide for outdoor control we recommend that you consider a micro-encapsulated insecticide such as Cy Kick CS or an oil based insecticide such as Demon Max. Cy Kick CS will provide you with a full 90 day killing power outdoors. Please take a few minutes to read over our Mosquito Control Guide for more helpful tips for treating mosquitoes around your home.

  • Asked by Robt. from Hot Springs Village, Arkansas

    Q
    How to exterminate chiggers on decks, loose rock yards, grass areas adjacent to golf course
    What is the best method & material to control Chiggers in central Arkansas? Most of the yard is covered with 1-2" diameter loose rock about 2" thick. The wooden deck 1-3' off ground. I tried High Yield Turf Ranger Insect Control Granules & Bayer Advanced Complete Insect Killer Concentrate (3oz/gal).
    A
    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is not labeled for chiggers. Onslaught insecticide is labeled for chiggers and can be used both indoors and outdoors as a broadcast spray. 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.

    Can you use Permethrin SFR 36.8 on vegetables?
