    Q
    Is it wise to use Bifen IT along with Actellic?
    A
    We are unfamiliar with Actellic. We recommend that you contact the manufacturer directly to seek advice on whether or not you should supplement their product with a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide such as Bifen IT.

    Q
    Is Bifen IT safe to use by a lake without harming fish?
    A
    Bifen IT is not designed to be used along the perimeter of lakes. It is harmful to aquatic life. You could use EcoVia, which many folks use to treat their docks for spiders and other insects.

    Q
    Does Bifen IT control small lake flies?
    A

    You can apply Bifen IT indoors and outdoors for flies in general as long as you make sure none of the spray winds up in the lake. If contaminating the lake is a concern for you there is a product called Essentria IC3 that can be used around water without worry of hurting any aquatic life.  Essentria IC3 is a broad-spectrum natural insecticide that works just as well as the synthetic insecticides but without the aquatic toxicity issue.

    Q
    Will Bifen IT kill lice in the yard and home?
    A

    Bifen IT is not labeled for lice and there is no need to treat outside for lice as they do not live long off of their host.  We do carry products that can be used for lice control. Please take a few moments to review our article on How to Get Rid of Head Lice for more information.

    Q
    I have a small pond inside my house. Is it ok to apply this product inside my house?
    I have a small fish pond inside my house. I know this product shouldn't be applied very near to it, but I'm wondering it if I applied it inside my house, on areas not directly adjacent to the pond, and somehow a contaminated bug ended up inside the pond while it's dying, is this product so highly toxic to fish that this would be dangerous for them?
    A
    You can apply Bifen IT indoors so long as you make sure none of the spray winds up in the pond. The very small amount an insect may have on its body should have no effect at all on anything in the pond. If contaminating the pond is still a concern for you there is a product called Essentria IC3 that can be used around water without worry of hurting any of the aquatic animals you may have. Essentria IC3 is a broad-spectrum natural insecticide that works just as well as the synthetic insecticides but without the aquatic toxicity issue.

    Q
    How long for Bifen to dry if sprayed at dusk (dark-no sun) while temps are in the 50's?
    I sprayed just before dark on a mostly cloudy evening with the temp being 55 degrees. It got dark as I was spraying and now my dog has to go out to potty. How long will it take to dry in these conditions? I don't want it to get on her feet and legs and her end up licking it off.
    A

    Generally, after an application of Bifen IT it should take a few hours to dry outside, typically 4-6 hours.

    Q
    Is Bifen IT safe to use around baseboards in a bedroom?
    They are coming up between the carpet and the baseboard in the bedroom. We have recently used Bifen granules outside and sprayed the walls and ground at the wall with Bifen IT. Now, I have found a few in the closet. They do fly. We have air-conditioning and the carpet is dry.
    A

    Bifen IT is safe to apply inside along baseboards and in cracks and crevices around the home as directed on the product label.

    Q
    What do I need to rid my home of ants and spiders?
    A
    We would recommend our Complete Ant Kit because it fills the dietary needs of most species of household ants providing effective ant control indoors and out and Bifen IT as a general insecticide spray that is tough on ants and spiders. Be sure to keep bait and spray completely separate to prevent contaminating the bait. Place the bait stations along ant trails and close to ant activity and spray along baseboards window frames, door frames, corners of the rooms, and around the perimeter of your home spraying 2 feet up the side and spraying 2 feet out on the ground all the way around your home.
