    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra hurt my horse if it gets on him and not washed off quickly?
    My horse was being attacked by a couple hornets and in my panic I grabbed the sprayer with Tempo SC Ultra in it. I had sprayed his legs and belly area before I realized which sprayer I had. I haven't been able to catch him to wash him off yet. I want to find out for sure what I should expect if it is harmful to him. Thank you

  • Asked by Kevin from Idabel, Ok
    09/28/2014
    Q
    Should I expect them to be gone instantly?
    We have two cats, but they never go outdoors. This last week we suddenly had a house full of fleas. Followed the instructions for Tempo precisely just last night. Not only are they not gone, but they seem almost just as rampant. Shouldn't they be gone by now? Ideas, anyone? Thank you.
    A
    Tempo is a great product, but since you cannot apply as a broadcast, we do not necessarily recommend it for fleas. Please review our Flea control page. We recommend using our Indoor Flea Control kit. This kit contains two cans of Alpine Aerosol which is one of the safest professional grade flea sprays for use indoors and was recently classified as a reduced risk product by the EPA. It provides excellent control of fleas and contains an IGR as well, which prevents adult fleas from being able to lay eggs, eventually halting the flea reproductive cycle.  You'll also get two bottles of CimeXa Dust which is a safe, odorless, non-staining dust that is perfect for spreading on carpets, floor coverings, in cabinets, under furniture cushions, and other areas where fleas tend to harbor.  As fleas come into contact with CimeXa, the dust literally dries the fleas out causing eventual death.  These two products together create a powerful double punch providing excellent, safe and lasting indoor flea control.

    11/06/2014
    Q
    Is it safe to use Tempo SC Ultra for fleas inside the house? Will it harm anything in the house?
    If not how much Tempo SC Ultra per 2 gallons of water?
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra should NOT be used for flea control indoors! We would recommend our Indoor Flea Kit as the items in this kit are safe and effective for indoor flea treatments. The Indoor Flea Kit is designed to treat the interiors of homes, apartments, and similar areas with existing flea infestations. The Alpine Flea Insecticide with IGR Aerosol can be used on most floor surfaces and pet bedding, while the CimeXa Dust can be applied to carpets, other floor coverings, and in cracks and crevices where fleas may harbor. Both products are extremely low risk to pets and people and can, therefore, be used in sensitive treatment areas. The Indoor Flea Kit is safe, ready-to-use, and does not require additional application equipment. This kit is designed to treat areas up to 2,000 square feet.

    Q
    Is Tempo SC Ultra safe for puppies
    After applying Tempo and it has dried and after it has rained, are the standing water on our deck safe for puppies to be in. Tempo was sprayed several weeks prior to having puppies on deck
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra is pet safe when used as directed on the product label.  Pets should be out of the area until dry, typically a few hours.  After that rain should not move the product or contaminate any puddles that can build on the surface of the treated area.

  • Asked by John from Cambridge
    12/24/2015
    Q
    Can I spray in my cupboards filled with dishes and food with Tempo SC Ultra?
    The food is packaged sealed. I have fruit flies. I have sprayed the sink and walls with Tempo but they are still here.
    A

    No, Tempo SC Ultra is not labeled to be used inside of cabinets. This product should only be used around baseboards, cracks and crevices.

    For fruit flies, we do have a contact kill called PI Aerosol that can be used inside of cabinets. Be sure to take everything out the cabinets when you are spraying. Once it is dry, it is safe you to put everything back inside the cabinets. For this and any other fly, it is crucial to identify the source where the flies are breeding in order to eradicate the insects. Please see our Fruit Flies Treatment Guide for more information.

    Q
    Can Tempo SC Ultra be used to treat fungus gnats on indoor plants?
    Currently have fungus flies in some of my house plants' top soil, such as a plant consisting of swedish ivy, braided weeping fig, and wondering new.
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is labeled to treat fungus gnats on indoor plants. Please refer to product label for specific instructions. Fungus gnats are present due to overwatering of the plants, so if the soil is allowed to dry completely, then the fungus gnats will die out.

    Q
    Can Tempo SC Ultra be sprayed directly onto a flowerbed ?
    I have wasps all around a flowerbed. The Material Safety Data Sheet by Bayer says. "Do not allow product to contact vegetation." The flowerbed contains vinca / periwinkle.

    Tempo SC Ultra will not harm landscape ornamentals when applied per label. It cannot be applied to edible vegetation. We would not recommend spraying blossoms to reduce potential exposure to beneficial pollinators in the area.

    Q
    Do you need to unplug your refrigerator before you spray Tempo SC Ultra?
    Someone told me if you left your refrigerator plugged up while spraying in under it, the motor would suck the spray up inside of it. I need to know if that's a possibility.

    When using Tempo SC Ultra you should direct spray into the cracks and crevices behind the refrigerator by pulling it out and doing so.  We have a great video that shows where to spray for perimeter and interior spraying. Please click on the link here to see the video.
