  • Asked by Eps from Oklahoma City

    Q
    What is the difference between beta-cyfluthrin and regular Cyfluthrin?
    What is the difference between beta-Cyfluthrin and regular Cyfluthrin such as CY-KICK CS... Tempo and Cyndy-kick Cs are both encapsulated right? One just a off brand? Tempo has more Cyfluthrin then Cy-kick.. why is that? What is the difference. Looking for a good Insecticide for my quarterly customers..
    A

    Beta Cyfluthrin is a second generation pyrethroid, whereas the Cyfluthrin is a first generation pyrethroid. Anything second generation is going to be a newer formulation and often have a slightly different mode of action or slightly faster kill on the pests, or designed to combat any resistance issues that could have been experienced against certain species with the original formulation. Essentially, for most pests they will work the same to control them overall in the same general capacity. Products like Cy Kick CS are encapsulated to help the ingredient not break down under UV rays as quickly as a non-encapsulated product which is why its recommended highly in high heat/UV ray areas such as deserts of Arizona, Nevada, etc. 

    Whether either of those products would be the best thing for your quarterly customers would mostly depend on what kind of longevity you are looking for in a product and what kind of pests they may have a particular problem with in their area. A product like Cy Kick CS is going to last longer typically outdoors than a standard non-encapsulated product like Tempo would. However faster knockdown may be observed with the use of the Tempo SC Ultra since the beta-cyfluthrin can provide that.

  • Asked by Don from Ponca City Oklahoma
    07/27/2018
    Q
    I sprayed Tempo SC Ultra 5 hours ago and I still have fleas in my house wood floor and concrete. Should I spray again?
    A

    Please keep in mind it does take time to eradicate Fleas. While Tempo SC Ultra will kill fleas that contact it, we also recommend to add in an IGR like Nyguard IGR to break down the reproductive cycle.Tempo is not an immediate kill, but can take several minutes to kill. Also, it is not labeled to be broadcast. If you need to broadcast over the floors indoors, we recommend something like the Indoor Flea kit found on our Flea Guide.

    Q
    I have heard of neighbors using Tempo SC Ultra on their cattle to control flies. Will this hurt the cattle?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is not labeled for use on cattle so could harm them if used off label, it is only used in and around animal housing. Animals other than cattle or horses need to be out of the area during treatment until dry.  For fly control on cattle themselves we have many other options here.  Permethrin based products being the most popular.

    Q
    Can you spray Tempo on animals?
