Proflex Encapsulated Solution can last up to 90 days outside, depending on the amount of sunlight/weather it is exposed to where it is applied. The key with treating mosquitoes is to apply to the underside of leaves on trees/bushes which is where the adults lay during the day. It can be reapplied at 14 day intervals if needed per the product label. Please refer to the label for complete instructions.
Proflex Encapsulated Solution is mixed at 1 fl oz. per gallon of water for structural perimeter barrier applications for mosquitoes and other listed insects. The product label states to apply to outside surfaces of buildings, porches, patios, garages and other areas where these pests have been seen or found. To help prevent infestations of buildings by flying insects, treat soil, vegetation or other substrates in a band 6-10 feet wide adjacent to the building foundations, walls, around doors and windows, and overhead areas where these pests are active and may find entrance or harborage.

Yes, Proflex Encapsulated Solution can harm beneficial insects if they are sprayed directly or contact a treated surface long enough to receive a lethal dose. Insecticides are not designed to be selective in the insects they kill really. To avoid contact we would recommend applying early morning or late evening when they are less active and avoid spraying any blooms. Also key with mosquitoes is to apply to the underside of the leaves on trees/bushes which is where the adults lay during the day. The only product we have that would be safe for bees once dry is the Mavrik.
