Customer Reviews for Permethrin SFR 36.8%

I use Permethrin SFR and Talstar P on my lawn and it is beautiful. No Bugs in the lawn and in the house. I use Permethrin 1 month and the next Talstar P. I alternate pesticides every 30 days so each generation of insects is killed with a different pesticide thus eliminating immunity to the chemicals. I start this cycle in the summer and during the winter I spread it out to 60 days. If you want a BUG FREE area this is the way to do it

My rental house got vacated except they left thousands of roaches and fleas. My first inspection was cut short because my blue jeans had turned black from my knees down due to hungry pests. After thorough research I ordered this Permethrin SFR 36.8% and did not find a single bug alive post-application. Strongly recommend this product!!!!

Bedbugs really bed in my city. I spotted bedbugs on a Wednesday and I had no more bedbugs that Friday---Thanks to this product and good box springs and mattress encasements. For two years I use this product to control all pests. I have none. Nothing moves in my home but people. A great and pretty safe product.

I purchased this to try to control the horse flies and deer flies along with a very healthy dose of mosquitos. I'd have to say I was very impressed that within a couple hours of spraying I had nothing bothering or biting me. I will definitely be buying a large supply!

I sprayed my yard about four times at 1 or 2 week intervals. Last summer I got dozens of chigger bites just from going in my own yard! Since I sprayed, I haven't gotten any chiggers from the yard.

Can't ask for more than that. I use it on my dogs (diluted 100:1) 3x a day (special mixture including PVP-I to kill the microbes carried by fleas and ticks). It is... amazing. Here in Florida, ticks and fleas are endemic and ubiquitous. My four large (4...yup!) dogs haven't had a flea or a tick on them in 18 months, thanks in part to this product (and my mixture). If you write me, I'll tell you how to make it...free! (I sell it on Amazon.)

Had a huge infestation of sod webworms in my St. Augustine lawn. Had several lawn companies treat the grass, however, the problem continued. Purchased Permethrin SFR 36.8, several years ago, and I apply it in early spring and in the summer to kill their life cycle. The product is the only thing that I have found that kills sod webworms.

We had lots and lots of wasps nesting around our home and outbuilding, even nesting in spaces behind the vinyl siding and under gutter leaf gards. Mixed per instructions in a tow-behind-mower powered tank sprayer. Sprayed early morning directly on nests, all gutters, eves, awnings, around windows, doors, corners of siding, foundation. The next day, no wasps! It's been around 3 weeks now and still do not see any.

Bought to get rid of ants because my new puppy goes after ant hills- with just a little bit of product was able to do my 1/2 acre lot and have not seen an ant (including red ants) since and its been a few weeks already- I have enough to do the lawn plenty more times. I really have not seen any bugs at all which is great because I am surrounded by woods . A lot cheaper doing it myself !!!!

Fast shipping. Arrived undamaged. Product was mixed in a pump up sprayer and applied. No strong odors, and by the next morning, crickets and spiders, and fleas wear all dead! Feet in the air.

I moved into a house surrounded with woods. The house has a large basement, garages, and carports. Plenty of places for things to hide. This stuff at .05% killed all bugs. We have not seen a live bug since spraying. By the cracks in the basement and garage we see dead bugs here and there. With the help of flea preventative on the dogs, the bad infestation of fleas are gone.

I had fleas from the opossum in my backyard. I have a dog, so I tried to find chemical to kill fleas without harming the dog. I found that Permethrin is used in treatment of lice and scabies in children, so I purchase this product. After spraying the grass ( not the flowers ) the fleas are gone. I am pleased with the results, so now I am using it around the house on the wall (about 6” from the ground) to get rid off crickets, ants, and other insects. It worked great! I also sprayed around my front door, because mosquitoes like to hide there and when the door opens they get in. For mosquitoes I have to spray ones a week but fleas are gone permanently. I am very pleased. Please don’t spray flowers and don’t spray to high because it can kill beneficial insects and honey bees.

I live on several Acres in rural MN. My house backs up to a large pond. The Mosquitos were literally unbearable in the summer time. I apply this product at 2oz/gallon of water every 30 days. The results are simply amazing. My entire yard is almost completely free of the nasty buggers. I have recommended this product to several people.

Excellent product. Mixes simply with water. Sprays evenly. Use with caution. Use a mask and gloves. When spraying take your time and be accurate. This is a very potent product. It decimated the white fly population on my properties. Don't be hesitant on going over your property a second time in case you may have missed something. Be vigilant and you will decrease the potential of reinfestation.

I use Permethrin in conjunction with two other of your products to kill mosquitoes. I live in southwest Louisiana and as you know it is the state bird.

Heavy infestation of fleas at my home was eradicated with two doses of Permethrin SFR and Precor. Great advice from this site and daily vacuuming for two plus weeks were necessary to totally eliminate the fleas.

Works as discribed, in several different applications. I use it in and around the house with excellent results. I use it diluted as specified on outdoors clothing before trips to the farm or woods in tick and chigger infested areas without a bite. Much easier and less costly to buy bulk and dilute as needed per application.

Thank you for your comments! Keep in mind that Permethrin SFR is not formulated or approved for use on personal items such as clothing. You should only use products as they are expressly directed on the product label for both legal and safety reasons.

This product knocked down our backyard flea problem in less than a day. We had hundreds of fleas due to some feral cats that had kittens under our deck. It was awful. Our dogs were really suffering. One pass around the yard in the morning and by the evening the "white sock" test produced NO fleas. Great product. Mixed with IGR and still no fleas after 2 weeks. I also should note that DMOPC was really great. Our first shipment was lost by the USPS and they sent a new order, no charge immediately. Best service ever!

After some extensive researching on the DoMYown...website this past summer, I purchased both the Delta Dust, Permethrin SFR and Nyguard IGR to combat a stubborn flea infestation. After just two applications (one app in July and another app two weeks later in August) they are gone. I've been battling these stubborn pests for a year with some success, but now they are truly gone. WOW! I still have 1/2 bottle of the dust and almost all of the other stuff left.

I live in an area that had an infestation of bedbugs, a few cases of fleas and scabies . I used Permethrin 10% to treat the latter two with great success. I do not want contact a bedbug infestation. So I purchased Permethrin SFR (36.8%) and use as a pesticide control and barrier in my apartment. I spray every 60-90 days. I have NO MORE BUGS and don't anticipate a bedbug problem. I pray.

Cicada Killer Wasps are supposed to be beneficial and harmless, but if it has a stinger, it's got to go. I bought this in hopes that it would clear the wasps out so my dogs and I can enjoy my deck in the morning where they congregated. 3 treatments later and they either died or moved on. And I still have enough pesticide for the next 4 summers if they ever decided to come back. Beats calling in a professional monthly that costs ten times as much. Once it dried, it didn't seem to bother my dogs. They love sitting in the grass and basking in the sun and enjoy it even more now that there aren't any nasty critters flying everywhere. I'll definitely continue using this stuff.

This product is easy to use and it works. For home use to control almost all the pests around the house inside and out. Used in Arizona for termites, scorpion's, or any spider, this product does the job. I use it at a medium strength concentration and have used it for a couple years. Thanks for providing such a good home use product :)

Being a pest control operator though simi retired now....I have been using permethrin insecticide even before the SFR Emulsifiable Concentrate was introduced. Permethrin is non selective... and is labeled for general pest control and as a termiticide and as such...read the label and follow label rates and application procedures. It is the law!! Permethrin SFR is easy on the lungs and nose...so you won't experience heavy insecticide smell like bifenthrin does. Having five cats...one likes to visit the neighbors..and he brought some hitch hikers home and they bite....fleas. Though I vacuumed hibitually and spent a lot of money on Advantage for cats....Advantage only works for a few days and is metabolized by cats systems and the flea infestation grew. I bought the over the counter carpet dust and worked the dust into the carpet..the fleas were still winning with my white socks attracting multiple fleas to the point I would have to pick a dozen or more fleas at a time in the bathroom flushing the fleas down the toilet. It was an intense infestation and me being a pest control operator was embarrassing!! There isn't much of any sort of insecticide available at big box home improvement stores with rather smelly socalled concentrates...so I finally ordered the Permethrin SFR and Archer growth regulator from Do My Own...the order was shipped vety rapidly and products arrived rapidly. That was impressive I will say. Got my B&G out..cleaned it up (Recall I'm semi retired doing mostly home plumbing repairs and minor home improvement jobs... used 1/2 ounce of Permethrin SFR and one ounce of Archer...vacuumed carpets/floors and living room furniture...and lightly sprayed the furniture with cushions removed and all floors. Left the house with windows open for a couple of hours and checked to be sure carpets/floors/furniture were dry before continuing life. As of this post..the fleas have been eradicated...not a single flea bite and cats have cleared up as well. Yes we still vacuum very regularly..but the Archer growth regulator affects fleas reproductive organs while the Permethrin SFR gave the kill punch to dump the flea population. As mentioned...read the label..all the info is there to get control of your flea infestation or most any general structural pest problems..spiders...ants...crickets..earwigs...roaches....even using a cheap $9.00 HD pump up sprayer. Save your money..do your own pest control...Do My Own has professional products and great pest resource info as well....but read the labels!!

I use Permethrin SFR 36.8% to control pesky insects around my homestead. Mixed at varying dilutions I can apply to chicken coops/runs 2X yr at clean out and if I have a northern mite infestation it's really the only solution in/around the poultry area and even on the birds . Living in a forested area ticks are a problem so I spray my dogs. I live in a mountain area where Japanese beetles will decimate anything worth growing - roses, fruit trees, raspberries, blackberries, gooseberries, currants and the list goes on... I've tried big box store products and NOTHING is as effective around my homestead s this product. The instruction booklet is quite thorough so make sure you're using the product dilution according to instructions and you'll have the best all around insecticide. And, remember because Permethrin has a long half life it continues to act as an effective insecticide for a long time so I find spraying fruit trees AFTER pollination - mid June here in Z7a is usually good for the entire season. Also be VERY careful to not spray when bees and other pollinators are present.
