    Q
    How long after a rain do I need to wait to apply Tempo SC?
    I'm hosting a party and want to spray my yard. It rained overnight and could possibly rain in the afternoon before the party. Wondering if the product will still work or if it is better to wait.
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra will hold up very well in the rain, but you just need to apply it when it is not going to rain for about 3 to 4 hours so it has time to dry and set.

    Q
    How do we treat for bees around our pool?
    I need something that will leave a residue to fend them off, yet, not stain concrete
    A
    To treat bees around your pool, you want to use a product like Tempo SC Ultra. Tempo SC Ultra will leave a non staining residual in areas treated around your pool. Please keep on mind that this product will kill the bees when they come in contact with the treated areas, but will not stop them from entering. Bees/wasp are attracting to water, because they are looking for water.

  • Asked by Andrew from Bradford, Pa
    04/25/2018
    Q
    How would I apply the Tempo SC Ultra to large ash trees to kill emerald ash borer beetle?
    If not could you suggest a liquid that could work?
    A

    Unfortunately, Tempo SC Ultra is not labeled to treat for emerald ash borer beetles. We would recommend a systemic product like Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control Concentrate. According to the product label, this product quickly dissolves in water allowing the insecticide to move through the soil into the root zone. Once in the roots, the insecticide moves up through the tree providing year-long insect control. This product will also provide control to new growth. Drench applications to individual trees will control emerald ash borers. For foliar applications mix 1.5 tsp of this product per 1 gallon of water.
