    Q
    Can Precor IGR Concentrate be mixed with Suspend SC?
    I have several infestations going on so it would be helpful if I could mix Precor with the insecticide Suspense SC. Any dangers of doing that.
    A

    Precor IGR can mixed with other insectides for treating fleas. If mixing with Suspend SC, this would only be applied along baseboards, corners and cracks and crevices since Suspend SC cannot be broadcasted over carpeted areas which is recommended to treat for fleas. NyGuard IGR is a more versitle insect growth regulator and is labeled for more than fleas.

    Q
    Is Precor a residual product?
    If I spray Precor/Conquer today, and a larvae hatches 5 days from now, will that new adult be affected by the Precor? I assume the residual Conquer will likely kill the flea, but if it lays eggs before it dies, will those eggs hatch?
    A

    Yes, both Conquer Insecticide and Precor IGR Concentrate will continue working after they are dry. While we do recommend retreating at 2-week intervals for active flea infestations, Precor can continue working for up to 7 months indoors (provided carpets are not steam-cleaned or shampooed). While Precor may not prevent eggs from hatching at all, it does prevent immature fleas from reaching adulthood.

  • Asked by Bren from South Bend, In
    08/05/2016
    Q
    How much Precor IGR Concentrate do I need for the whole house?
    We have had local pest control spray down the whole house TWICE, bathed pets, we cleaned all clothes and have laid down diatomaceous earth. Our main problem was in the basement where they did a crevice treatment, but it has since moved to both first and second floors. We have fleas EVERYWHERE. Beds, clothes, hair, pets, AGAIN. This is getting very out of hand! Moving onto 3 months now with flea problem. Really need the help! We have no carpet in home.
    A

    One container of Precor IGR concentrate will treat 1500 square feet. The amount of product used will depend on how much area you are treating. This product is only a growth regulator so it will take time to eliminate fleas. We generally recommend that you use an insecticide as well in combination with the growth regulator. Be sure to treat every 10-14 days with an insecticide until you no longer see activity. 

    Please check out our Flea Guide for tips on how to treat and prevent fleas.

    Q
    Safety for toddler?
    I am very concerned with using any chemicals in my house because I have a three-year-old the crawls all over the floor and touches the floor then puts his hands in his mouth on a regular basis. I have been looking at The Precor Pro for flea control and it seems to be a very effective product that is safe. We have a sudden major flea ingestion and more natural solutions have done nothing! My question is, is the precor pro or another precor product the safest solution and should this be mixed with another safe product to control the adult fleas? Or does the precor control them effectively as well? If another product is needed for adult flea control, which do you recommend that is completely safe?
    A
    We would recommend using Precor 2000 Plus Premise Spray. It has an insect growth regular in it as well which is very important. It is like a birth control for the fleas. This product is safe once it is dry. It is not reactivated again if the floor gets wet. It is completely safe for your toddler to be on the floor once the product has dried completely. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    08/04/2017
    Q
    Why doesn't Precor IGR work beyond 24 hrs?
    A

    As with most any concentrate, it is recommended to use all diluted Precor IGR solution within 24 hours of mixing since the product is not designed to sit in solution and still remain stable and effective.

    Q
    Is Precor effective against insects besides fleas?

    Precor IGR is labeled for fleas only. We do have other Inest Growth Regulators (IGR) that are labeled for a wide variety of insects such as Gentrol IGR and Martins IGR. Be sure to read the product label of the product you choose before purchasing to make sure the pest you are trying to control is listed. You can find product labels on the individual product pages on our website under the picture of the product.

  • Asked by Jayson from Bay City Or
    11/12/2020
    Q
    Can Pecor products be used near rivers and streams? Are these products safe for fish?
    I live on a river and want to treat the yard for fleas but will this contaminate the stream? Is there a product I should use instead?
    A
    Precor IGR Concentrate actually is just for use indoors for flea control. This IGR is not photostable, so it would like only last a day or two in the sun. If you need to spray within about 25 feet of a river or other aquatic area, then you can use an insecticide called Essentria IC3 for the adult fleas. This product is safe for use around aquatic areas.
