Can we spray the entire yard without killing the grass?
Yes, Tempo SC Ultra can be applied at a rate of 8 ml of Tempo per 1000 square feet for chiggers. The amount of water depends on how much you need to apply the 8 ml over the area. It can be mixed with a few gallons of water, or 10 gallons of water, just as long as the 8 ml is applied over the 1000 square feet. Treatments for chiggers should begin in April/May and could need to continue through the summer as new chiggers move into the area. Treating the entire lawn is of little benefit because chiggers avoid direct sunlight and normally will not infest areas that are mowed or otherwise well maintained. Focus treatment on the unkept areas of the lawn and lawn edge. You can also use Tempo SC Ultra as a barrier treatment around the outside of your home and in your crawl space to stop pests from moving indoors.
