    Q
    I was told to water in Bifen IT after application. Will not waiting 24-48 hours decrease the effectiveness?
    A

     Typically, you do not need to water in Bifen IT. As long as your treated area has had time to dry, watering the area will not decrease the effectiveness.

    Q
    How much Bifen IT & how to apply to carpenter ant nest in the yard.
    The book says to dilute 0.5 to 1 oz to a gallon of water & apply at a rate of 10 gal per 1000 sq ft. So can I make 1 gallon & apply in a 10 ft by 10 ft area around the carpenter ant nest?
    A
    You can definitely mix Bifen IT in smaller quantities to fit your needs as long as you are following the general guidelines described on the product label. Be sure to thoroughly saturate the carpenter ant gallery for best results.

    Q
    If I spray Bifen IT how long do I have to wait to put livestock back on premises?

    Bifen IT is safe to use around livestock premises as long as the animals are NOT grazing in the treated areas. After the application, you need to wait until the area is completely dry before letting the animals back onto the treated areas.

    Q
    We live near a lot of dairy cows and the fly problems are pretty bad. Does Bifen IT work on flies?

    Yes, Bifen IT would work to treat flies. It dries clear and is odorless. You can apply the mixed solution to lawns, trees, shrubs, and indoors. It has a long lasting residual. You will need to retreat during the fly season once every 30 days.

    Q
    Will Bifen IT kill flies?
    We live next to a farm and our outside porch and siding gets infested twice a year with flies. We need an effective low/no odor and non-staining solution & hope this will be it!
    A
    Yes, Bifen It would be a great choice to treat flies. It dries clear and is odorless. You can apply the mixed solution to lawns, trees, shrubs, indoors. It has a long lasting residual. You may want to retreat during the fly season once every 30 days. Otherwise Bifen has a 3 month residual.

  • Asked by Bruno
    04/05/2021
    Q
    Does dilution of Bifen IT matter for lawn application?
    I plan to use Bifen on my lawn. Does the amount of water matter as long as I get the appropriate amount of product per 1000 sq ft? I know it's 1 oz per gallon per 1000 sq ft, but does the amount of water really matter as long as I get 1oz per 1000 sq ft?
    A

    It will depend on what you are applying it for. For instance, if you are trying to control insects that walk on the blades of grass or around the thatch layer, if you use too much water, you could push all of the product below the thatch and those insects may not be affected by the application. If you are targeting insects that are below the thatch such as chinch bugs, more water can help you get the water where you need it to be. Please refer to the Bifen IT product label for complete instructions on your target pest.

  • Asked by Danny from Vista, Ca
    04/14/2018
    Q
    Is Bifen IT safe to spray in grassy areas free range chickens are grazing? Will it effect their eggs?
    A

    Bifen I/T is used in poultry housing and facilities and as long as the chickens are removed from the area while you treat. You should still be able to use it in their grazing areas with no issue since they are not actually feeding on the grass/potential seeds place out but on the insects in that area after everything has dried. If you had any concerns with the Bifen I/T usage, another option that is safe to use in grazing areas is Essentria All Purpose. You still have to remove the chickens during the application but once dry is safe to return just like the Bifen IT. Neither product should have any effect on their eggs at all as long as you are following usage instructions.
