    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra kill stink bugs?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra will work for stinkbugs.  Stinkbugs are not listed on the product label of most insecticides yet because they have only started becoming a problem for homeowners and property owners in recent years. Be sure to spray eaves, soffits, window frames, door frames, areas where cables, pipes or wires enter into the structure and any other crack, crevice or gap where insects can harbor. We also recommend starting applications in early August to prevent having the stink bugs move in with you and sealing up as many cracks, crevices and gaps as possible.

  • 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.

  • Asked by Kerry from New Glarus, Wi
    02/10/2016
    Q
    If I spray Tempo SC around my exterior windows, will it keep Asian beetles and boxelder bugs out?
    We have asian beetles and box elders in our house almost all year in WI. I vacuumed up 50 in our bedroom, alive in the middle of February. Will this kill them as they sneak into the house via the window cracks?
    A

    Yes, Tempo SC Ultra will work for Asian beetles and boxelder bugs. It is recommended that you spray in the areas where you have seen activity, around the perimeter of your home, around windows, doors, and around entry ways, etc. The mixing ratio is 8 ml per gallon of water. We would also recommend using a dust in the wall voids, such as Cimexa Dust, to stop them if they attempt tp come in through there.

    Q
    Which is better for me Tempo SC Ultra Premise or Tempo SC Ultra?
    I have a house full of small grand kids.

    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.

    Q
    I'm treating for bed bugs. Should I shampoo the carpet and furniture? Can I spray Tempo SC Ultra on my bed?
    Do I need to rent a shampooer to shampoo the carpets and furniture after using this inside my house? Should I use this on my bed for bed bugs? Last, do I need to wash the baseboards and other areas after using this product? I have a two year old child and a pregnant wife in the house. Thanks!
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is labeled only to use as a crack and crevice spray around the perimeter of the room. It is not labeled to be used on mattresses, furniture or other items that will be coming in prolonged skin contact. You can use Tempo SC Ultra on your box-spring. We have linked the Tempo SC Ultra product label in this answer so you can review the label for complete usage instructions. We recommend using Bedlam Plus for spraying your mattress.

  • Asked by Mike
    03/13/2010
    Q
    If I spray Tempo SC Ultra in closets or closed areas, will the fumes kill carpet beetles/larva?
    A
    No, Tempo SC Ultra does not have fumes per say.  Its mode of action is a residual film where you apply the product.  If the product comes into contact with a carpet beetle or larvae, it will kill it.  If a carpet beetles or larvae walks or crawls over a surface that was sprayed with Tempo SC Ultra, then it will pick up the residual of the product on itself and die.  We do carry a product called Nuvan Pro Strips which does emit fumes and are for small enclosed areas like a closet.  You can leave the strips for a period of time and it will kill any beetles or larvae that happen to be in the closet.  Please read the product label for full instructions.

    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra deter mosquitoes?
    If sprayed Tempo SC the on lawn, trees, patio, and surrounding vegetation, will I see less skeeters?
    A

    Tempo SC will not actually repel mosquitoes, but using it in target areas will help reduce the number of mosquitoes in your yard. Tempo SC Ultra should be sprayed on the underside of leaves on trees and bushes to help control mosquitoes. Mosquitoes like to hide on the underside of leaves during the heat of the day so spraying there will help the mosquitoes come into contact with the Tempo SC.

  • Asked by Skinny from Dfw, Texas
    11/05/2011
    Q
    Can I use Tempo SC Ultra in hamster or guinea pig cages?
    I have problems with roaches getting into their food. I think the hamsters are eating them, but I usually find a couple roaches in the guinea pig cage. When I clean the guinea pig cage, can I spray it, let it dry, and then add clean hay/bedding?
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra is not labeled for use in animal cages. We recommend that instead of spraying the cages that you treat the areas surrounding the cages to kill the roaches before they enter the cages. You can also add an Insect Growth regulator such as Gentrol IGR to the Tempo SC Ultra to help break the infestation cycle. Keeping the cages and the areas around the cages very clean will also help to get rid of the roaches.
