Bifen IT is a great product labeled for over 75 types of insects, including scorpions and especially mosquitoes. Mix 1oz Bifen IT per 1 gallon of water and apply as a perimeter treatment or broadcast treatment over the entire property. When treating for mosquitoes, it is important to focus on the undersides of leaves, bushes, trees, shrubs, decking, eaves, etc as this is where mosquitoes will hide during the day. Pay attention to damp areas and possible consider using BTI Mosquito Dunks in areas where you have standing water.
Bifen IT used inside the home as a crack and crevice treatment will last 90 days and 30 days outside the home as a perimeter or broadcast treatment.
You can spray plants with Bifen IT on days with high temps but you should refrain from spraying during the heat of the day. Instead, restrict applications to very early morning or late evening. This will prevent the sun rays from scorching the plants while they are still wet.
Bifen IT could harm car paint. It is not labeled to be applied or any over spray to land on vehicles. Please contact the manufacturer Control Solutions (281) 892-2500.
Bifen IT is not a product that is approved for use on edible plants, so if you are using it in equipment that is used for this purpose, be sure the equipment is thoroughly cleaned both before and after applications. It is generally best to use dedicated equipment for use around edibles, and to use separate equipment for herbicides so that there is no residual that may interfere with other applications.
