    Q
    Can Tempo SC Ultra be mixed safely with alcohol to kill bed bug eggs?

     Tempo SC Ultra should not be mixed with alcohol. Tempo should be diluted only with water. You can use Sterifab seperately for a contact kill. Tempo SC Ultra is not labeled to kill bed bugs. Our bedbug kits come with all top of the line products that are available on the market today, along with instructions to follow. When applied properly, our kits have a very high success rate. We recommend reading our article on How to Get Rid of Bed Bugs for more information on a treatment program using the products and non-chemical efforts.

    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra kill mold mites?
    We are removing the moisture problem. And are trying to kill them at tg e same time. And nothing is killing them.
    A

    If you are asking if Tempo SC Ultra controls mold, then the answer is no. Tempo is just an insecticide. The only product we sell to kill mold spores is Boracare with Mold-Care, which can be applied to raw wood and lasts the life of the wood.

  • Asked by John from Saratoga, Ca
    08/17/2017
    Q
    Can Tempo SC Ultra be sprayed on carpets and rugs? I am treating for rodent mites in existing fabrics.
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra can not be sprayed as a broadcast over carpet, rugs or upholstered items and is not labeled for rat mites.

    The first step in treating for Rodent Mites is to remove the host animal, then cleaning and sanitizing the area. Be sure to wear gloves and protective clothing. Without removing the host, you will not be able to fully eradicate the infestation. If you are not able to locate the host, we recommend contacting a professional to inspect and remove it. 

    Vacuuming visible mites or wiping them up with a damp cloth can remove existing mites, but freeze vacuum bags to ensure the mites are dead. Controlling rodent populations in your home by using traps and sealing your home can ensure that these mites do not enter your home.

    Onslaught Insecticide and Steri-fab are two products to treat for rodent mites. Steri-Fab is a contact kill that can be used on upholstered furniture, mattresses, pillows, blankets, etc. It only kills while it is wet and will not leave any residual behind. Onslaught is a microencapsulated insecticide that can be broadcasted over carpeted areas and rugs (not furniture or mattresses) to treat for fleas, ticks, mites, etc. Vaccuming before application is crucial and to continue to vacuum every other day, if not every day. This is extremely helpful in the success of your treatment.
