  • Asked by Celeste from Palmyra, New York
    09/23/2019
    Q
    Does Tempo SC Ultra stain dark siding on homes?
    We have stink bugs our home is stained dark cedar siding. We were told this leaves a white residue, is that true?
    A

    Tempo SC is a mostly clear-drying product; however if it is over mixed, over applied/saturated in one area, and allowed to pool up it can leave a milky white residue behind. We would recommend either spraying it on a small inconspicuous spot first to see how the residual shows, or going with a product like Alpine WSG which mixes completely clear in water and dries clear.

  • Asked by David from Maquoketa, Iowa
    04/09/2019
    Q
    Can I use Tempo on my raspberry plants and is it a safe for honeybees??
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is not a selective insecticide and it will kill honeybees if it is sprayed in places where honey bees are foraging. Tempo SC cannot be used on raspberry plants. Instead you may consider using something like Bayer Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control. This product is not selective either so it is important to not spray in areas where the bees are actively foraging. Do not harvest fruit until at least 7 days after application.

  • Asked by Skye from Texas
    10/19/2017
    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra keep ticks out of the house?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is not a true "repellent," so it will not keep insects such as ticks away.  The only way to do this would be to seal up all cracks and crevices that allow them access inside.  Tempo can be used as a barrier spray to help kill ticks that come into contact with treated surfaces.  Please take a few moments to review our article on How to Get Rid of Ticks for more detailed information on how to implement a successful control program for this pest.
