    Q
    Can Alpine WSG be applied while it's raining?
    A

    It is not recommended to use Alpine WSG while it is raining outdoors. This will wash the product away, and it will not be effective for the pests your are attempting to eliminate. We would recommend waiting until it has been down for at least 6 hours before it rains.

    Q
    Does Alpine WSG also work to elimate gnats?
    A

    Alpine WSG is not specifically labeled for gnats. “Gnats” is a very general term used to describe a wide variety of small flying pests including fruit flies, drain flies, fungus gnats, no-see-ums, mosquitoes, etc. You can use a general insecticide like Talstar P on the outside of your home on all the window and door frames and on window screens to try and prevent pests from entering your home. We cannot give more specific information or treatment products unless we know exactly what species of pest you are dealing with so that we can narrow down where the problem is coming from and address it directly. Please review our Getting Rid of Gnats article for more information.

  • Asked by Courtney from Roseville, Ca
    07/23/2021
    Q
    How long will it take Alpine WSG to kill off cockroaches and spiders? I'm using Archer IGR also.
    When should I spray again? Should I add anything else? I have several different kinds of roaches I think.
    A

    Alpine WSG https://www.domyown.com/alpine-wsg-p-2876.html has a residual of 30-60 days so retreatment may be done after 30 days. How long it takes to kill insects depends on a few factors such as age and health of the insect, how long they spend on the treated surface and how soon after application they contact it.  How long it takes to eliminate a roach infestation depends on how large the infestation is, how consistent and thorough you are being with treatments and what products you are using.  There is not a set time; it can take but it can take weeks or months even to get complete control. Alpine WSG is typically not used alone but in combination with other products. We would recommend one of our roach control kits. You can see the kits by clicking on the link here. We also have a great article for eliminating them that can offer some great advice; you can find it here.

    Q
    Why are Pharaoh ants excluded from Alpine WSG label?
    A
    Alpine WSG is NOT labeled for pharoah ants because:
    • Baiting is the only effective method for elimination of control of Pharaoh Ants
    • Residual spray treatments are not effective with Pharaoh Ants because they result in the colony budding and contaminate bait stations.
    • Baits must be placed systematically (not randomly) in order to be effective
    • In buildings with severe infestation, total elimination may take up to a year of persistent baiting.

    For repeated flea reinfestation of washed and sealed clthing, clothes be washedwith and seal it for a while before final washing post infestation? I cant wash all of My clothes every few days... for some reason im having repeated clothes reinfestation (after washing and drying).

    Alpine WSG cannot and should not be used to treat clothing. Heavy Flea infestations should treated every 14 days along with frequent vacuuming multiple times a week. Contents of the vacuum should be placed in a trash bag and removed immediately after. 

    Treating the exterior of the home would be suggested as the infestation may be coming from the lawn outside. Please review our  How to Get Rid of Fleas Treatment Guide for more information.
