    Q
    Will Bifen IT damage my cannabis plants?
    A

    Bifen IT is not labeled for use on cannabis.  It likely would not harm them, as it is known for being gentle on plants, but it would not be safe to apply to anything that would be consumed in any way.

    Q
    Will Bifen IT kill sugar ants?
    A

    Bifen I/T can be used to spray around the homes foundation and in the yard for most species of ants. All ants are sugar ants (they all feed on sugars and proteins) so we couldnt say for certain how well it will work for your specific situation without knowing the exact ant species. You can review our ant control guide below to see tips on inspection and prevention as well as product suggestions that may be more suited to your needs.

    Q
    How should Bifen IT be applied to houseplants to treat for fungus gnats?
    A

    Bifen IT is safe on house plants on the foliage.  For fungus gnats you would be using as a soil drench to treat.  The other option is to allow the soil to dry out completely as this will kill any larvae in the soil.

    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.

    Q
    Is it safe to plant a vegetable garden where I sprayed Bifen IT?
    I sprayed bifen around my yard last week.
    A

    We recommend that you either wait at least one year before planting edibles where Bifen IT has been sprayed or that you excavate the soil in the area you want to plant. You can also create raised garden beds where you would be bringing in fresh soil media.

  • Asked by Katie
    07/25/2011
    Q
    Should I use an IGR with Bifen IT to control roaches?
    Should I add an insect growth regulator(IGR) to Bifen IT to keep roaches and other pests out of my home?
    A
    We always recommend using an IGR such as Nyguard or Gentrol to help break the roach infestation cycle. We also recommend using a roach bait gel such as Advion Roach Bait Gel to help get rid of those roaches that harbor in areas where you cannot spray (cabinets, drawers, counters, around sinks).

    We do not recommend that you spray Bifen IT or any product on foliage during the hottest, sunniest part of the day. You can use the product during hot temperatures but it should be applied early in the morning or late in the evening before the sun is beating down on the foliage.

  • Asked by Amy from Allen, Texas
    06/07/2013
    Q
    How much to buy for an acre?
    Our house is on an acre. We are mostly fighting fire ants, flies (on flowering shrubs), spider mites, and wasps. We also have a pool which attracts flying red ants and I assume we will soon see mosquitos. Help!! Is Biden the solution for us? I have already spent too much money on professional fire ant control with little success. What is the best way to apply? Can I apply to full lawn and shrubs? Hose sprayer? Any help appreciated.
    A
    The Bifen would definitely be a great option for most of the pest you are having a problem with. You can use the Bifen in a hand pump sprayer or with a hose end, although you will get more uniform and accurate coverage with a hand pump than you will a hose. You would typically mix 1 ounce to a gallon of water for all the insects in your yard and you can spray the bushes, yard, ornamentals and trees for mosquitoes, spider mites, wasps and regular ants. For fire ants you need to treat a little differently as they are more unique than other ants. The BEST way to control fire ants is with a professional grade bait like the Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait. It not only is a food source that they will forage for and bring back into the nest, but it also contains an IGR-birth control-to keep the queen from reproducing. This has been proven to have the most thorough results. If you don't want to use a bait you can use the bifen on the fire ants but you must follow the instructions on the label for drenching each mound with at least 3 gallons of water to get all the way to the bottom of the nest. You can see the specific instructions for this method on the Product Label.
