Tempo Sc is labeled to be applied to cracks and crevices. It will kill roaches and spiders that come in contact with it. To eradicate roaches, you also want to be sure to bait like Maxforce Magnum and use Gentrol IGR to break down the reproductive cycle.
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.
