    Q
    Does Tempo SC Ultra work on flies
    MY house has become infested with flies. My friend used this product for the Asian beetle and said she never saw another bug after that. She gave me the bottle to try to get rid of my fly problem.
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra is labeled for flies. It is important for you to read the product label and follow the directions for indoor applications for fly control. We urge you to get the flies identified so that you can figure out the source so you can stop this pest from gaining entry to your home in the future. You can contact your local cooperative extension office and ask to speak to the entomologist on staff to request an insect identification.

    Q
    Why cant I buy Tempo SC in New York?
    A
    It has nothing to do with us.  It is a New York specific law that prevents us from shipping certain products to New York.  These are products defined by the New York government that they do not want homeowners using because they are professional products.  We do have a link to New York products that are permissible for us to ship.

    Q
    If considered safe for pets and children, why not safe to use in pastures that may be grazed?
    There is a question relating to "only strong enough to kill small insects and should not harm animals" so I do not understand why product sprayed to kill grasshoppers would be dangerous in a possible grazing area.
    A
    People and our pets are not actually eating the items that are sprayed with Tempo SC Ultra. Incidental contact on dried treated surfaces is not the same as actually eating items that have been treated. Tempo has not been tested on edible vegetation. For more information you can contact the Tempo Sc Ultra manufacturer. You can reach Bayer by calling 800-331-2867.

  • Asked by Sara from Hays, Ab
    08/01/2013
    Q
    Is there any harmful risk to my baby crawling on grass after spraying with Tempo SC Ultra?
    I understand that you wait 4 hrs till its completely dry to be in contact, however I worry about my baby crawling on the grass after I've sprayed it. If you don't recommend using it on furniture or anything with prolonged skin contact, how can the grass be safe for my baby?
    A
    The Tempo is not Labeled for use on furniture and skin contact surfaces as this is not a tested area. It takes manufacturers millions of dollars to go through the testing and research to be approved to have "skin surface areas" on the label so most dont do it. Plus, you normally come into contact with bare skin on furniture in your home more than any other part so it lessens any adverse reaction since every persons body is different. Once the product has thoroughly dried on the grass, the solution at that point after being diluted and spread across the yard is only toxic enough to kill something the size of an insect. As long as you give the adequate wait time, your baby should be fine. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

    Q
    Can tempo be mixed with an oil base exterior paint to prevent carpenter bee?
    A
    We apologize but the Tempo SC ultra is not labeled to be used mixed with paint and we are unsure of the results if you were to do so outside of the product label instructions. We are unaware of any products currently on the market that we carry that can be mixed with paint for insect control. Your best method would be to spray the surfaces they are congregating regularly throughout the season with Cyonara 9.7. Or you can check our complete Carpenter Bee Kits.

    Q
    i have just purchased a 900ml bottle and plan on spraying multiple house for Asian beetles i have a100 gallon
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra is labeled for a few differnt types of Beetles, however Asian Beetles is not the label. We recommend using Onslaught Fastcap or Bifen IT outdoors to kill Asian beetles,using either product at a mixing rate of 1oz per gallon water. Treating outdoor areas is very time consuming and getting the appropriate coverage over the area can be a real challenge. But it's the only way to stop the invasion. Spraying indoors without spraying outdoors is virtually useless. Any measure for control to treat Asian Lady Beetles assumes that all holes and entry points OUTSIDE of the structure have been sealed first. When treating the inside and outside perimeter of the home, focus on the entry points to the home (windows, doord, eaves, attic vents, foundation cracks). Please let us know if you have any further questions.
