I'm seeing some conflicting answers regarding what would currently be the best granule to use to treat Springtails. Bifen? Demand G? Also, what spray insecticide would work best in conjunction with your recommended granule?
Between Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules and Demand G Granules, we would recommend Demand G because it is labeled to help control springtails. Springtails are an indication of a moisture issue, so their abundance means there is a moisture problem that needs correcting. You will not be able to reduce the numbers of this pest successfully until you have addressed and corrected the moisture issue that is allowing them to flourish. We recommend reading over our Springtail Control Guide for more tips and information that may fit your needs.
