Yes, Temprid FX Insecticide is mixed at 8 ml per gallon so 16 ml to 2 gallons is the proper rate.
Foliar means an application to the leaves with the product.
Since Temprid FX Insecticide is a dual mode of action insecticide, it is less likely to develop a resistance than other insecticides. Depending on the target pests you are treating, we would suggest rotating every 12 months or when a decrease in effectiveness occurs. For general purpose applications, Temprid FX Insecticide should be applied every 90 days indoors and every 30 days outdoors.
As long as you are not spraying directly into the vents of an air conditioner Temprid FX Insecticide could be used as directed on the product label. You would only direct treatments to cracks and crevices around the rooms, along baseboards, under furniture etc. We would recommend turning the unit off while doing the application until dry, once dry it would not become airborn to effect breathing. We have a great guide here that explains where to and how to treat for bed bugs with products.
Temprid FX Insecticide will kill adult listed insects including roaches and bedbugs. It should not be the sole product for roach control or bedbug treatment applications. We do offer Bedbug Kits (some contain Temprid FX) and you could use Gentrol IGR/Gentrol Point Source Stations and roach bait gel if treating both pests along with non-chemical efforts for both. Please take a few moments to review our treatment articles/videos on How to Get Rid of Roaches and How to Get Rid of Bedbugs for a successful program.

Yes, Temprid FX Insecticide is a residual product. You will want to treat every 7-10 days until there is no activity of bed bugs for 30 days straight. Please look over the product label before making your application. Also, we would recommend incorporating a product like CimeXa into your treatment plan for hard to reach areas where you cannot spray a liquid insectide, like behind the face plates of electrical outlets for example. Please take a moment to review our How to Get Rid of Bed Bugs Guide for more information on implementing a successful treatment plan.
There is no valid reason to mix Temprid FX and Bifenthrin products together. Talstar P is a synthetic pyrethroid and Temprid FX already contains a synthetic pyrethroid, so there would be nothing to gain by mixing these products together. Making a pesticide too strong can actually backfire. Areas that are treated with this overly concentrated spray will be repellent and insects will simply avoid the treated areas prolonging the infestation.

Temprid FX is a good all-around product that can be used for roach control and a wide variety of insects. Temprid FX needs to be applied on baseboards, cracks and crevices, it can also be used safely in the attic. You will need to keep pets out of the area being treated until it's all completely dry. For a thorough roach control, we recommend using our Roach Control Kit A, not only will you have an insecticide but a bait gel and an insect growth regulator to interrupt their reproductive cycle, it also includes insect glue boards to monitor your treatment. We recommend reading over our Roach Control Treatment Guide for further tips and information.
For rat control, we would recommend using the Protecta Rat Bait Station and Fastrac Blox kit. You'll need to wear gloves when handling the stations as well as the bait. Fill the stations and place at least one on each side of the home, you will need to use either stakes or a concrete block to secure the stations. We recommend reading over our Rat Control Treatment Guide for further tips and information.

You can use Tempo SC Ultra 32 mL along with NyGuard IGR to help disrupt the life cycle of the fleas or Onslaught Insecticide along with NyGuard IGR. Make sure all food and water troughs are covered or removed and the animals are removed as well. Let the treated areas completely dry before letting the animals back into the barns. For flea treatments, you can retreat every 14 days as needed. We also recommend that the animals get their own flea treatment done as they may also reintroduce fleas back into the barn. We recommend reading over our Flea Treatment Guide for further tips and information.
