    Q
    Can I use Phantom along with Onslaught Fastcap?
    I have already treated with Fastcap and we are still noticing spiders, ants and silverfish. Also, the old house has a history of termite problems but nothing is active now. Can I use Phantom on top of Fastcap to treat perimeter and crawlspace for bug
    A

    When using Phantom Termiticide Insecticide you would need 30 days between treating with the Onslaught FastCap and an application of Phantom. Keep in mind these products work extremely differently on insect populations and Phantom will be a very slow kill. Phantom cannot be used around the perimeter of the structure outdoors or under the crawlspace as a spray.

    Q
    best product for my situation?
    found ants inside the front door. every night find sawdust on the inside of the front door. I know that door needs to be replaced as does door frame. Live in humid climate and unemployed so can't replace door right now. I have Phantom here from another prior pest problem. Should I use it for the ants inside door or purchase Termidor?
    A

    Phantom Termiticide/Insecticide is a great product and it will work to control most types of ants. It should be applied around baseboards, door frames, and window frames. Phantom is a non-repellent insecticide that has a delayed reaction which allows ants time to get back to the colony and spread the product.

    Q
    Does it kill spiders?
    A

    Yes, Phantom is labeled for spiders and can be used for them.  On the inside, Phantom is only labeled as a crack and crevice treatment, so you should only apply it in corners of rooms, underneath appliances, and other areas that spiders may harbor.  If you do not have small children or pets, glue boards are a good tool to monitor spider activity in the home.

    Can you tell me if this kills fleas? I know I would have to mix it with it insect growth regular? I have to buy it anyway for ant's because of springtime is coming, but I would really like to use it for the fleas also.

    Q
    Large Ant Infestation
    We moved into a new home only to discover that it has a pre-existing ant infestation. We have ants crawling out of light fixtures, baseboards, in kitchen and bedroom (above kitchen). We have had pest control come out to treat, which seemed to have helped for the time being and then they charged way to much but did tell us that they use Phantom. How often can Phantom be re-applied indoor?
    A

    Phantom Termiticide Insecticide Apply crack and crevice or spot treatments of a 0.5% dilution to areas of known or suspected ant activity. Where possible, apply Phantom directly to ant nest(s) or nesting site(s) or ant-infested wood or structural voids. Reapply, if needed, every 4 weeks or more. Here is a great guide our team has put together regarding ants.

    Can Phantom and Mother Earth D be used at the same time for ants?
    A

    They can be used at the same time, but they should not be applied in the same area. An example of utilizing both is if you do a perimeter spray of Phantom Termiticide Insecticide, and then used the Mother Earth D in voids, cracks, etc. where you cannot spray

    Q
    Have large colonies, citronella ant problem, mobile home crawlspace...
    Can it safely be sprayed as directed, to the soil areas under the vapor barrier? I have heavy clay soil, but dry not wet or damp, and pretty well vented. This is a manufactured home, with a crawlspace. Also, what is the dry time to soil? With or without a vapor barrier?
    A

    Phantom Termiticide Insecticide needs to come in contact with the soil to be the most effective but you can spray on top of the barrier as well.  The typical dry time is dependent on the amount of moisture you could have don't there. It could be anywhere between a couple of hours and a couple of days. As for your clothing, the product label states "Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse."
