    Q
    Midge Control
    We have swarms of millions of midges that look like massive clouds. they stick to your house get into the house th rough the screens and cover the car. Is there anything I can spray to destroy this mass invasion before it happens besides keep lights down. It is awful.
    A
    Biting midges do generally not enter structures, but midges are small enough to get through 16 mesh screens. Getting mesh screens with a higher number can keep these and other very tiny insects out of your home. Since non-biting midges are attracted to lights, draw your shades at night and wait as long as possible to turn on exterior lights to keep them away from your home. It is nearly impossible to affect the habitat of these pests, and pesticides are not recommended to control these pests in water or mud.

    Our experts recommend using a pyrethrin spray such as 565 Plus or Microcare to get rid of the adult midges in or around your home. Spraying a product such as Tempo SC Ultra on window screens, doors, bushes, and plants around your home can act as midge repellant to keep midges away. Citronella candles or oils can act as a midge repellant, but aren’t as effective when used alone.

    Q
    Does it kill cone nose beetles and safe around chickens who would eat the dead insects?
    Our chickens free range and they would eat the dead insects. We are worried about them and the eggs they lay. My husband is deathly allergic to the cone nose beetle (AKA kissing bug) so we need a safe spray for chickens.
    A
    We would recommend using Talstar P for kissing bugs. It is labeled to be used in poultry houses at the rate of 1 fl. oz. per gallon of water. We would recommend keeping your chickens out of the area until it has dried.

    Q
    Difference between SC Ultra and SC Ultra Premise & Application
    What is the difference between Tempo SC Ultra and Tempo SC Ultra "Premise"? Do you need to reapply it after it rains or just on a 10 day rotating schedule? I have a campground and thinking of using it for guests.
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra and Premise 2 Termiticide are two different products. They have two different active ingredients. We would recommend using the product when rain is not in the forecast or at least 24 hours. The reapplication time for Tempo SC Ultra is 30 days outdoors. The reapplication time for Premise 2 Termiticide is six months topically. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    07/07/2015
    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra work towards killing fleas?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is labeled to kill fleas using a rate of 8mL per 1000 sq ft or 12 fl oz per acre. Apply where pests have been seen or found, or can find shelter. Permitted areas include but are not limited to: home lawns, business complexes, apartment buildings, airports, cemeteries, parks, playgrounds, recreational fields, institutional grounds, athletic fields, and other landscape turf grass. In the outdoor flea treatment process it is recommended that you use two products together to get the expected results, a liquid insecticide such as Tempo SC Ultra to kill exposed fleas and an insect growth regulator (IGR) such as Archer or Nyguard that will stop immature fleas from reaching sexual maturity.

    Whenever you have a moment I suggest taking a look at our guide on Flea Control, which explains how to successfully treat for fleas and the products recommended such as our Flea Kits for indoor and outdoor.

    Q
    Can Tempo SC Ultra be used in my car?
    I've been having an issue with spiders getting into my car and really want to get rid of them. Would this work well in this situation?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra is not really specifically labeled for treatment in cars.  You cannot apply the product to any seats or anywhere that you come into contact with.  You could only apply it to cracks and crevices and under seats.  We feel that an aerosol can would be easier to apply to a car and just as effective.  We would recommend D-Force HPX Aerosol and apply it to the same areas. You can also view our Spider Pest Guide for more information about treating for spiders.

  • Asked by Lena from Seattle, Washington
    11/08/2015
    Q
    Can I mix Tempo SC Ultra with Transport Mikron?
    Is it safe to combine these two insecticides?
    A

    You should not mix Tempo SC Ultra and Transport Mikron together, and you should never mix 2 insecticides together unless both labels specifically state they are safe for mixing with the other product you plan to use. Insecticides are very specifically formulated to work with certain ratios and adding any other chemical to the mix can offset the ability of the product to work properly and the way it was designed. Specifically speaking regarding Transport and Tempo; Transport is a non-repellent insecticide and Tempo is not. Therefore, mixing the two will completely take away the non-repellency of the Transport, wasting the product and its intended use. 

    You may also contact our Customer Service team for assistance with your specific situation; we are happy to make recommendations on what produts and applications will work best for your target insects. You may reach us at 866-581-7378 M-F 9a-5p EST.

    Both Tranport Mikron and Tempo SC are labeled to treat for Silverfish. Picking between the two Transport Mikron would be best. Transport Mikron combines not only one powerful active ingredient, but two! Dilute at 1.25oz Transport Mikron per gallon water for Springtail control.

    Q
    Does Tempo Ultra kill plaster beetles?
    We noticed plaster beetles in our house,mostly inside the ceiling. I cant find any information how to get rid of them. Does Tempo Ultra or Tempo dust can help me to get rid of them?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra and Tempo Dust 1% both list beetles under the list of pantry & stored product pests that they control. Plaster beetles feed on mold, mildew and other types of fungus so if you are finding them in your home there is a moisture issue that needs to be addressed.  They can also become an issue after a heavy rain.  Perimeter spraying with a product like the Tempo SC Ultra can help with these.
