    05/19/2019
    Q
    Will Permethrin SFR 36.8 get rid of mole crickets and if so what is the application for a 1 acre lot?
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is labeled for mole crickets. The labeled rate is 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. If you’re using the higher rate of 0.8 oz per 1000 sq ft, that would require 35.2 ounces for an acre.

    Q
    Can I use Suspend SC or Talstar P to treat a poultry house for lice and mites?
    Does Suspend or Talstar work in killing and/or preventing lice in an outdoor chicken coup?
    A

    Talstar P is not labeled for lice. Suspend SC is labeled for lice, however, it is not labeled for use inside of chicken coops.

    We would recommend using something like Permethrin SFR in the area. It is labeled for lice and mites in poultry houses. The mixing ratio is 1 2/3 fl. oz. of product per gallon of water.

  • Asked by Eric from Newton, Pa
    08/22/2015
    Q
    Can I use Permethrin SFR 36.8% to control horse flies around our lawn and shrubs, similar to mosquito spraying?
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is only labeled for fly control as a perimeter treatment or for animal quarters such as barns. A more appropriate product would be Talstar P. You should locate and eliminate the breeding source of the flies, since control will be very difficult relying on sprays. An easy and effective tool is the Flies Be Gone Fly Trap, which catches thousands of flies from up to 100 yards away. This trap is disposable and should be hung about 30 feet away from the house or other areas where you spend time. Please see our Flies Pest Guide for more information.

    Q
    Can I use Permethrin SFR around pigs?
    I am raising pigs and plan on putting them in a new area that is mixed woodlands. The area is teaming with ticks so I was going to spray the area before moving them with permethrin. Will it be safe to allow them into this area to graze, etc. How long after spraying? Also if I want to dip or apply permethrin to the pigs what would be the correct concentration?
    A

    Permethrin SFR can be used in animal housing areas containing swine and for use on swine. Per the product label, you would use 4 oz in 25 gallons of water to treat 50-100 head of swine, and thoroughly wet or dip animals including ears. You must allow 5 days between the last treatment and slaughter.

    Permethrin SFR is not labeled for use on grazing areas. For this treatment, we would recommend Essentria All Purpose Insecticide.

    05/05/2017
    Q
    Is it safe to spray Permethrin SFR 36.8% around cats, dogs, and birds? Is it harmful to breathe in?
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% can be applied to indoor cracks and crevices when the children and pets are not present. They can return once the treated areas are completely dry. Depending on the mix ratio used and how heavily you sprayed, it could be anywhere from just as the product has has had time to dry, or several hours after application before the smell of the Permethrin SFR completely goes away. If the odor is objectionable, then you may want to consider switching to a water-based insecticide, rather than an oil-based one. You may contact our Customer Service staff at 866-581-7378 M-F 9a-5p for further assistance selecting an alternative product.

  • Asked by Jay from Pa
    07/24/2012
    Q
    Does Permethrin SFR really use 6+ oz to 1 gallon a t 2% like the label states?
    also is there any downfall to using the produst at it strongest?
    A
    It really does take 6 2/3 fl oz per gallon of water to make the 2% dilution ratio of Permethrin SFR. For most applications however you will only need to use the .5% dilution (1 2/3 fl oz per gallon water) for general use. The higher rate is normally used in places where folks are doing a termite treatment but cannot use a large volume of water. What will you be using the product for?

    Q
    Does Permethrin SFR kill fly larvae/maggots? What is the best way to apply this to carpet?
    Considering it does not come in powder form.
