    Q
    Can you apply Temprid SC outdoors in cold weather?
    Freezing temps
    A

    You shoud not apply Temprid SC or any other insecticide if temperatures are near or below freezing. This is a water-based product that could freeze in your sprayer. Also, it would be wasteful to spray in temperatures that cold because there would not be any insects surviving in those temperatures.

  • Asked by Jennifer from St. Louis, Mo
    05/29/2018
    Q
    How long will it take the Temprid and Cimexa to get rid of my bed bugs?
    A

     

    When you are spraying Temprid SC for bed bugs, it is recommended that you spray every 7-10 days until you do not see activity for 30 days. How long the product takes to work depends on how severe the problem is to begin with, your other treatment methods, and how thorough treatments are. Temprid SC does offer a long residual, however it is important to perform follow-up treatments at close intervals to kill newly hatched bed bugs that may be present in the area. Please see our Bed Bug Treatment article for more information.

    Q
    Is Temprid SC Insecticidel harmful to birds?

  • Asked by Dj from South Dakota
    09/04/2015
    Q
    We sprayed Temprid SC and my child stepped in the spray. Should I be worried?
    My child came home from school shortly after we sprayed. My husband got a little carried away with the spray and some got on the carpet. My son then stepped on it while it was still wet. He just came into the house for a second to ask his dad something. They weren't suppose to be inside. I made him rinse as soon as I discovered he had stepped in it. I am very worried. Thanks
    A

    Per the Temprid SC product label:

    If on skin:  • Take off any contaminated clothing.
                    • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 to 20 minutes.
                    • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
