    Q
    Can I mix Bifen IT with herbicides?
    A

    You can mix Bifen IT with an herbicide as long as there are no restrictions on the label for the other product that you are using. We recommend performing a small jar test for compatibility any time you are using two new products together for the first time. Be mindful that you are only applying your herbicide in the correct areas.

    Q
    Is Bifen IT labeled for hoverflies (aka syrphid flies) in Missouri?
    A

    Bifen IT could possibly kill hoverflies if they contact a treated area long enough to receive a lethal dose.  Hoverflies are actually beneficial insects that feed on other insects that might attack plants. They also are pollinators that help your flowering plants. We apologize that we do not offer advice/products for killing beneficial insects.

    Q
    Can I mix Bifen IT and Humic Acid liquid in a tank sprayer?
    I would like to spray Bifen IT when I spray other products. Can it be mixed with Humic Acid in a tank sprayer? Are there any common products that it won't tank mix with such as an herbicide like Tenacity?
    A

    Bifen IT can be tank mixed with other products in a tank sprayer. For something like humic acid, we always recommend a small jar test for compatibility before mixing a full tank. It can also be mixed with other herbicides as long as the herbicide label does not state otherwise. You just want to make sure you apply the right amount of products per gallon and per 1,000 sqft.

    Q
    Earwigs in house and on patio
    A
    Most of the synthetic pyrethroid insecticides on our site would do a great job for earwig control. Bifen IT would be a great choice for earwigs. You can spray both indoors and outdoors with this product. Bifen IT, one of our best sellers, has a long residual, is odorless, dries clear, leaves no stains, is non-irritating to the skin, and wont break down easily with rainfall.

    Q
    My Bifen IT was exposed to freezing temps. Will that alter its effectiveness?
    Forgot to take the container out of my shed over the winter.
    A

    It is not recommended to leave any type of chemical in areas where they could freeze or over heat because of the potential for the chemical to break down. According to the manufacturer, as long as the Bifen IT was only exposed to sub freezing temperatures for a short period of time and the product looks exactly the same as before it was exposed, it should be fine.

    Q
    How long should I wait for dethatching after applying Bifen IT for chinch bugs?
    I plan to dethatch about 3 or 4 days after applying Bifen IT for Chinch Bugs. Will that make it less effective? I'm doing a 2nd application in about 2 weeks. Also, can it be watered into the lawn the day after or later? I used a hose end sprayer.
    A

    You should dethatch first and then treat with Bifen IT for increased effectiveness. You should water in the product after application to reach the areas they feed.
