  • Asked by Pavel from Ny
    01/30/2017
    Q
    Which IGR works best for roaches - Tekko Pro or Gentrol?
    A

    Either Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator or Gentrol IGR would be great for roaches but should not be the only product used for elimination. It will take non-chemical efforts along with baiting and spraying a perimeter spray labeled for roaches for a successful eradication program. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Roaches for more information as well as on our Roach Control Kits.

  • Asked by Calvin from Fresno, Ca
    04/18/2019
    Q
    Which is best to use for fleas and mosquitos outdoor, Permethrin SFR, Riptide, NyGuard or Tekko in an outdoor fog?
    Using in outdoor cold digger
    A

    Permethrin SFR cannot be used in a fogger nor can Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator outside for fleas.  You could use Riptide and NyGuard IGR but Riptide is a contact kill only and will not provide any type of residual control.  A better option would really be to use Permethrin and Nyguard or Tekko in a pump sprayer as directed on each product label so that you can continued control.

  • Asked by Sheryl from Huntsville, Al

    Q
    I have german roach infestation. Bought Tekko pro, Invicta Gold, and Advert DF. Which do i try first ?
    When i am placing in cracks snd tight spots, which is first, or can I use Advert and Tekko there and Invicta higher up same time?
    A
    Tekko Pro is only the insect growth regulator that should mixed with an insecticide labeled for roaches (german) like Temprid FX.  Mix 2 fl oz per gallon of water along with insecticide and treat along baseboards, cracks crevices, behind appliances, under sinks, toilets, etc. Temprid FX is mixed at 8ml to 16ml per gallon of water. 

    You will want to start treatments using either Invict Gold OR Avert DF Dry Flowable Roach bait, do not use both baits at the same time as they will compete against one another. Roach Bait placements should be reapplied every 10-14 days (remove old bait placements) and you should rotate roach baits after 60 days to prevent any resistance or aversion.

  • Asked by Sean from Oklahoma City, Ok
    08/11/2015
    Q
    Can Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator be used as a foam with a foaming agent?
    Can this be used with the Profoam Foaming Agent? If not, can it be used in a foaming application at all? I need an IGR that prevents molting (chitin synthesis inhibitor) as well as has the juvenile hormone and so far this seems like that product, as I haven't found another one that does both, but I also need it to foam into the wall voids. I was planning on getting the Chapin Poly Foamer. Target pest is German Cockroaches.
    A

    Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator does not carry foaming instructions on the product label, so we would not recommend it for this use. A good alternative with the same primary active ingredient, Pyriproxyfen, would be Pivot 10 IGR Concentrate, which does carry labeling for use in foaming equipment. Please see our Roach Treatment Guide for more information about roach control.

    Q
    If an area that was treated with Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator gets wet after the application has dried, is that area unsafe for animals?
    A

    No, once Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator has dried completely the first time you do not need to worry about the application getting wet and being a problem to pets. The molecules have already bound to the surface and will not reactivate.

    Q
    Could I mix Bifen L/P with Tekko Pro IGR? I am working against fleas.
    I have lived through a flea infestation and it was traumatic. I do not want through it again.
    A

    Bifen L/P Granules should be applied with a spreader to the lawn and irrigated after to activate the insecticide. You can apply Tekko Pro to the area as well for insect growth regulation. Please take a few moments to review our article/videos here on a successful program for eliminating fleas.
