    Q
    Does Southern Ag Pyrethrin Concentrate repel or deter bugs from coming in or staying in the house?
    A

    No, Southern Ag Pyrethrin Concentrate does not work as a repellent for insects. When an insect comes into contact with the treated area or eats it, their nervous system over-excites and quickly leads to paralysis then death. Pyrethrin does not have a long residual and is a very fast-acting, quick kill active ingredient.  It is commonly added with other insecticides to give it an extra kick to the residual insecticide.

    Q
    Does Southern Ag Natural Pyrethrin Concentrate work on the Brown marmorated stink bug?
    A

    Southern Ag Natural Pyrethrin Concentrate will kill the stink bugs that you make direct contact with while applying but it does not leave a residual.  For more long term control we have put together an Overwintering kit that is just for stink bugs. This kit includes Demon WP insecticide with Cypermethrin, Eco PCO dust and a hand duster for easy application. You should treat once a month through November for best results.

    Q
    If I spray Southern Ag on my kids wood swingset, will it keep carpenter bees away?
    A

    We do not recommend applying any chemicals to child's playset. You will want to treat the structure and holes to eradicate Carpenter Bees. To treat your home, we recommend applying the products in our Carpenter Bee Kits. Please refer to the labels for mixing and application instructions.

    Southern Ag Natural Pyrethrin Concentrate is labeled to be used as a space spray for mosquitoes.  Be aware it will only kill the insects that are out in the open at the time you spray.  The instructions are as follows:

    Dilute at a rate of 1 part concentrate to 19 parts water or oil. Apply with mechanical
    or compressed air equipment (non-thermal) adjusted to deliver a fine mist. Close
    doors and windows and shut off ventilating system.  Spray direct at an upward angle distributing it uniformly through the entire area at a rate of 1 ounce per 1,000 cubic feet of space. Keep area closed for at least 10 minutes. Ventilate and sweep up and destroy dead and fallen insects before reoccupying.

    Q
    Will this Southern Ag Natural Pyrethrin Concentrate work good with Precor for flea treatments or should I use a residual pesticide instead?
    I have been using Permethrin and Precor for my flea problem but we don't like the smell. I know this product is not residual but would it get rid of my flea problem faster?
    A

    Southern Ag Natural Pyrethrin Concentrate can be mixed with Precor IGR for indoor applications. Most pyrethroids do contain a smell but will eventually dissipate. We carry NyGuard Plus that contains the growth regulator and a deodorizer for indoor applications. We also carry products for outdoor flea treatments. To speed up the elimination of fleas, vacuum once a day for 14 days following the application (even on hard surfaced floors). A minimum of two applications two weeks apart will be required. Please take a few moments to read our article on How to Get Rid of Fleas for more helpful information on elimination of fleas.
