  • Asked by Pat from Siren, Wisconsin
    08/20/2013
    Q
    Is Tempo SC the right product for treatment of spider webs on our cabin?
    We have a lake home with rough sawn cedar and the exterior is full of white (stringy, sticky) cob webs. I'd like to spray (power wash) the siding. I want the cob webs to fall off and not return.
    A
    You could power wash the siding of your home first and when dry, you could apply Tempo SC Ultra 3ft up the siding. Tempo SC Ultra will provide control of spiders and their food source monthly on the exterior of the home and lawn. You could also apply the product around cracks and crevices, window frames and door frames. We also carry a product called Web Out Cobweb Eliminator that prevents the support of the spider webs and can be applied to indoor and outdoor surfaces. Please click on the following link for additional information on the product. Web Out Cobweb Eliminator

  • Asked by Pat from Oakwood, Texas
    01/13/2020
    Q
    Which product is better between Tempo SC and Bifen IT?
    Which product is better for ladybugs, ants, spiders, scorpions, roaches, mosquitoes, and flies?
    A

    Bifen IT and Tempo SC Ultra are both very good products. The biggest difference between them is that they have two different active ingredients. They are both great insecticides and can be alternated so that there is no pest resistance built up.

  • Asked by Tammie from Corsicana, Texas
    05/18/2018
    Q
    Is Tempo SC Ultra safe to use around someone on oxygen?
    A

    We would not recommend spraying insecticides while other people, children, or pets are in the immediate area, especially anyone with sensitive health concerns. Tempo SC Ultra is labeled to be used in hospitals as a spot or crack and crevice treatment, but the label does not specify patient rooms. We recommend consulting your physician regarding what is appropriate. You can view the Safety Data Sheet here.

    Q
    Can I use a mist sprayer to kill mosquito and black flies with Talstar P in our yards?

    Yes, a mist blower such as the Solo 451 Mist Blower makes mosquito and fly treatments efficient and allows for excellent coverage on foliage. You can view a video of this product in action on the product page. Talstar P is the most popular product we sell for use in the Solo 451 for mosquito control.

  • Asked by Dave from Ripon Wi 54071
    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.

  • 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.

  • Asked by John from Waco, Texas
    10/19/2016
    Q
    Which is better for me Tempo SC Ultra Premise or Tempo SC Ultra?
    I have a house full of small grand kids.
    A

    We do not carry and therefore cannot comment on Tempo SC Ultra Premise. We do, however, carry Tempo SC Ultra and can tell you that the product is labeled for a large number of insects and is safe to spray indoors along baseboards, cracks and crevices. Kids, pets and everyone else needs to exit the area to be treated at the time of treatment and can return once the treated area is completely dry. Approximate drying time is about 2 hours.

  • Asked by Jorge from Chicago, Il
    06/18/2018
    Q
    Tempo SC Ultra vs Demon WP for springtail control, is one better than the other?
    A

    Demon WP Insecticide and Tempo SC Ultra are both very effective insecticides and while they may kill springtails that come in contact with a treated area, neither are specifically labeled for springtails. We would recommend using Talstar P as your perimeter spray and we also suggest incorporating a granules like Demand G Granules. Eliminating springtails can take time. Springtails indicate that there is a moisture issue because they breed in walls or under slabs where a moisture issue may exist. Typically, pesticides alone will not take care of a springtail problem. It is required to fix whatever moisture issue is causing the problem. You should read our "How To Get Rid of Springtails" article for further information.

  • Asked by Ruben from Lawndale, Ca
    01/18/2016
    Q
    Does Tempo SC Ultra kill baby roaches?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra will kill adult roaches. It sounds like you need to use an Insect Growth Regulator to break down that life cycle. We recommend using a Gentrol product like Gentrol IGR Concentrate or Gentrol Point Source. Both will stop pest larvae from progressing to the pupal stage of development, so the larvae die before they become breeding adults and prevents future infestations. Please take a few moments to review our article on How to Get Rid of Roaches for a successful roach control program. We do recommend applying the products from one of our Roach Control Kits.
