    Q
    Can you walk barefoot where you have sprayed Tempo SC Ultra after it is dry?

    Tempo SC Ultra is safe to use as a broadcast to lawns and once dry would be safe to walk across.  Inside it cannot be used as a broadcast to interior surfaces and would only be applied in cracks and crevices where you would not contact it.

    Q
    How long should I wait before watering after using Tempo SC Ultra on the lawn?

    Most insecticides like Tempo SC Ultra are going to be rainfast within 6 hours of drying. We typically suggest waiting about 24 hours if possible before resuming irrigation or having rainfall to ensure the maximum residual will be observed from the product.

    Q
    Can I spray Tempo SC Ultra to kill potato bugs?
    A

    While Tempo SC will certainly kill potato bugs it cannot be used on edible vegetation. Instead we recommend using Bayer Advanced Vegetable and Garden Spray which contains the same active ingredient as Tempo but a different formulation which allows you to use it on edible vegetation.

    Q
    Would Sevin Concentrate be recommended to treat flies and wasps in a magnolia tree?
    I recently purchased a home and I have a magnolia tree that is about 15 ft tall. It is over run/covered with flies and wasps. I've used Sevin already on the lawn (mix with hose water) and sprayed the trees we well, including leaves, branches and trunk. Many flies died, but it has not done anything to the wasps and a lot of flies are still around. There are so many, I can't get close enough to the truck to trim low branches. There are not any noticeable nests in the tree. Any idea what I can do?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra would be a great choice to apply as a foliar spray for wasps, flies, hornets, etc for a quick knockdown. We would also suggest using Wasp X Wasp and Hornet Spray for a contact kill and foaming residual.

  • Asked by Jeff from Mt View Wyoming
    07/17/2018
    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra kill kissing bugs?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra contains a pyrethroid called beta-cyfluthrin, which behaves similarly to natural pyrethrum, except with much longer residual activity. While the product label does not specifically list kissing bugs, this is a non-selective insecticide and would likely affect any insect that would contact it. Please see the following articles from Texas A&M for more information regarding kissing bugs in Texas:

  • Asked by Rick from Pierre, Sd
    07/17/2018
    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra hurt woodwork or wood floors?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is not labeled to be used as a broadcast spray indoors across floors.  When spraying around the baseboards, it should not leave behind any residue once dry or cause harm to the part of the floor that meets the baseboard.  A fine spray is all you need, don't apply to the point of puddling or run off.  If you have any concerns about your particular woodwork or wood floors, it is always recommended to do a small patch test on an inconspicuous area first.
