    Q
    How toxic is Cy-Kick CS undiluted?
    Someone I know offered to do some pest control for me in my kitchen. I gave him a bottle of Cy-Kick CS that I bought some time ago and told him the dilution rate was 1 oz per gallon. Except when I checked back to see how he was doing (noticing that he had started awfully quickly), he had poured the whole 32 oz of Cy-Kick CS into a spray bottle with only a little water, and was proceeding to do crack treatment along the walls and under the cabinets. I don't think he knows what he's doing (although he claims to have been in the pest control industry). How dangerous is this? What health hazards does this pose, and what should I do about it?
    A
    While we cannot comment on the use of product by a third party we can say that Cy-Kick CS must be diluted with water and applied following the instructions on the product label.  We would recommend contacting the manufacturer of Cy-Kick directly at 1-800-777-8570.

    Q
    Can Cy-Kick CS and Termidor SC be combined and sprayed together?
    I have all the insects imaginable in Central California Mountains at about 3000 ft elevation. Is one or the other better or both?
    A
    Termidor SC and Cy Kick should never be mixed and sprayed together. They are two very different products and the Termidor is designed for very specific treatments only. Cy Kick would be a fantastic product for you to use and it can be sprayed every 30 days outdoors if needed but will often last 60-90 days depending on how the outdoor elements affect it over time. Cy Kick also is labeled to be used indoors around baseboards and cracks and crevices. You would want to spray the Cy Kick 2-3 feet up and 2-3 feet out all the way around the foundation of the home and around window and door frames and other entry points for pests. You can also treat areas of the yard where you have heavy insect populations as well.

    Q
    What is the best way to get away from cockroaches? Which might be the best product for it ?
    I have been facing cockroaches problem in my house. I tried various pest control but still I could able to stay away from them . So what could be the best way to control it ?
    A

    We have had exemplary performance out of our Roach control kits.  The Roach Control Kit is perfect for roach control problems in homes and apartments. This professional kit includes 1 packet of Demon WP Insecticide (which makes 4 gallons of finished solution) for spraying the outside perimeter of the home and inside underneath appliances, behind cabinets, under toilets and sinks, etc. You'll also get 4 x 35 gram tubes of Invict Gold Roach Bait Gel--one of the best roach baits on the market. Invict Gold can be applied up high in the kitchen in the corner of cabinets and in cracks and crevices in kitchens and bathrooms. The bait contains a slow-acting poison that attracts and kills feeding roaches, who also spread the bait to other roaches by contact or by sharing food. Finally, 20 Gentrol Point Source stations provide an IGR (Insect Growth Regulator) that will stop roaches from laying eggs, helping to halt the infestation. The combination of an IGR with roach bait is a highly effective roach control strategy that is widely used by pest control professionals. Demon WP must be applied with a 1 gallon pump sprayer, like the Chapin 1 gallon sprayer.

    Q
    Cy-Kick-CS
    I have found Cy Kick to kill most everything I wanted but I have never tried it on Fire Ants. Is it a good product for that? If not,what should I order?
    A
    Cy Kick CS is labeled for fire ants however Extinguish Fire Ant Bait is our most popular ant bait. Applied as a broadcast application use 1.5-2 lbs. per acre and for ndividual mounds treatment, use 2-5 tablespoons. Keep in mind, Ants must be foraging for this to work. You should not apply this product in the late fall or winter of ants are not foraging...it will not work! Also, bait must remain dry. Do not apply if it is going to rain within 8 hours.

  • Asked by Brad from Dc

    Q
    Is CyKick a good product to treat carpet beetles?
    A
    It is very important that the source of the infestation (where the damaging larva is harboring) is discovered and eliminated, not just the visible insects you see wandering around. Until you find out what that is and deal with it, you will continue to get more of the carpet beetles emerging from hiding. Carpet beetles may be as likely to feed on grain based food materials as they are on animal byproducts. Pet foods stored in forgotten places, baking goods left too long in the cupboard, rodent baits tossed in the attic - all of these are quite susceptible to carpet beetle feeding. Plus, you also have the typical carpet beetle diets of dead insects (wasp nests in the attic, dead insects in window sills), feathers (bird nests, dead birds), hair (dead rodents, wool products, trophy mounts), and other things made from animal byproducts. Once the source of the infestation is removed or cleaned, use Cy-Kick CS and Gentrol IGR once a month until all of the beetles are gone. Gentrol IGR will help break the breeding cycle of the beetles and will help eliminate them for good.

    Q
    When Cy-Kick is dry, is it safe for children and pets? Does Cy-Kick kill ant colonies or just the ants that touch the treated surfaces?
    A
    Cy-Kick is safe if the children and pets are not in the area during application. They can return when the treated surfaces are completely dry. The ants will only be eradicated if they come in to contact with the treated surfaces.

    Q
    Is it better to alternate products ? I have used CyKick for a couple years, spraying monthly.
    Does continual use of the same product eventually affect the effectiveness of the product.
    A
    It can be helpful to change the product you are using to help prevent resistance issues with pests over long periods of time. That being said, we also are firm believers in sticking with a product that is working well, so if you aren't seeing any problems with the Cy-kick currently or noticing it not lasting as long as before, then you could certainly keep using it on a montly basis. A great product you could alternate to though for a huge range of pests would be Temprid SC.
