    Q
    I read that animals cannot graze in areas that have been treated with Permethrin SFR. How long after spraying can animals graze on it?

  • Asked by Larry from Leesburg, Fl
    07/09/2019
    Q
    Can I use Permethrin SFR for sod webworms? How is it applied?
    A

    With Permethrin SFR 36.8% 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.

    You want to make sure you are using enough water to get it down to where they are better so 1 gallon is usually not enough.

  • Asked by William from Franklin
    07/04/2019
    Q
    Will Permethrin SFR 36.8% kill chiggers?
    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.

    Q
    How does Permethrin SFR 36.8% compare to Bifen XTS?
    Looks like it's used to kill same insects; just curious how it compares. I'm very happy with Bifen product but always looking for 5e next best thing. Thanks
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is labelled for many of the same insects as Bifen XTS and would actually be a good choice to use as a rotation insecticide. Typically you will want to rotate insecticides about every 6 months to prevent any type of resistance from developing when the same active ingredient or mode of action is used for an extended amount of time.

    Q
    Can I spray Permethrin SFR 36.8% right on a black ant hill in my back yard?
    I have 3 or 4 black ant hills in my back yard and I want to spray them with ( sfr ) should I spray and then stir the hill and spray again or just spray and not stir up the hill.
    A

    We recommend using 1 2/3 fl. oz of Permethrin SFR 36.8% per gallon of water for ant mounds.The label recommends that you treat each  by applying 1-2 gallons of emulsion to each mound area by sprinkling the mound until it is wet and treat a 4 foot diameter circle around the mound  so the ants do not move their mounds. Use the higher volume for mounds larger than 12". For best results, apply in cool weather, such as in early morning or late evening hours, but not in the heat of the day.

  • Asked by Bob from Padadena. Md
    05/31/2019
    Q
    Can Permethrin SFR be sprayed on the ground and shrubs to control ticks?
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% would be a very effective insecticide to control ticks.  It is labeled for ticks (including Deer Tick and Western Black legged Tick).  Permethrin would be mixed at 0.4 to 0.8 Fluid Ounces per gallon of water to treat 1000 square feet of lawn and applied as a broadcast application. 

    It would also be a good idea to incorporate an insect growth regulator (IGR) such as Archer IGR for complete control of ticks.  All of these products are pet safe if used as directed.  Pets need to be kept out of the area being treated during application and until everything is completely dry. 

    Please look over our Tick Control Guide for more information on treating and preventing this pest.
