    Q
    Will Pivot 10 IGR Concentrate kill fleas?
    I live by woods and have a serious flea problem. I've treated my indoor animals with vet treatment but after vacuuming everyday and 24 dollar cans of flea spray, I am exhausted. How do I get rid of these fleas.
    A

    The Pivot 10 IGR Concentrate is an insect growth regulator only and will not kill fleas. It will help stop the reproduction cycle of fleas. It is meant to be used in conjunction with an approved flea insecticide. Flea control takes multiple applications every 10-14 days. Outside the home, we recommend to treat the outside yard area with Talstar P and Pivot IGR and indoors with NyGuard Plus. You may read more on how to do a full treatment in our Flea Pest Control Guide here.

  • Asked by Jay from Ft. Washington, Pa
    06/19/2014
    Q
    Can I use Pivot 10 for azalea bark scale? Cottony maple/taxus scale?
    University of Maryland recommends "Distance" which has 11.23% pyriproxyfen. I don't have $230 right now to invest in this. Do you think the "Pivot" would work? Scale insects are not on the label... I know.
    A
    Since scale insects on not listed on the Pivot 10 product label we cannot recommend it for this use.  Unfortunately we do not know of an IGR actually labeled for scale other than the Distance.  You can check with the manufacturer of Pivot 10 directly to confirm it can be used for scale insects.  Control Solutions can be contacted at (281) 892-2500.

    Q
    Can Pivot 10 IGR Concentrate be use on cucumbers, lettuce or tomatoes for white fly?
    Or any if IGR shouldn't be used on edible plants? Any other options to break live circle of white fly?

You can also use an oil like Triple Action to kill whjiteflies on contact. Be sure to coat all leaf surfaces, especially the undersides of leaves.

    10/19/2016
    Q
    Will Pivot 10 IGR Concentrate kill stink bugs ?
    A

    Pivot 10 IGR Concentrate is an insect growth regulator. It will not kill insects. It only stops their reproductive cycle. If you are looking for something to kill them at this time of year we would recommend our Overwintering Kit for Stink Bugs, Lady Bugs, & Boxelder Bugs. This gives you everything you need to kill the population you have, and to protect your home further from them getting inside to batten down for the winter.
