    Q
    Will FenvaStar EcoCap kill moth flies or drain flies?
    We had a sewage pipe bust under our trailer and now we have an infestation of drain flies in our bathroom. If we used this where the sewage pipe busted will it break the cycle with the eggs? (We are also waiting for it to "dry" up) If not any suggestions on this. We have been invaded!
    A

    FenvaStar EcoCap is labeled for a variety of moths but it's not labeled for drain flies. You can use InVade Bio Drain to get rid of the organic matter in the drains but it would be best to use the Drain Fly Kit.

    Q
    Will FenvaStar kill outdoor clover mites?
    I live in New York so I can't use Bifen which I see is the most effective against clover mites. Will this kill outdoor clover mites?
    A

    Unfortunately, FenvaStar EcoCap is not labeled for clover mites.  However, D-Fense is labeled for clover mites and can be used in New York.

    Q
    Fleas residual with FenvaStar EcoCap
    So I sprayed Fenvastar EcoCap, Tekko, and CxciteR all over my house because I only have one room with carpet and the rest are either vinyl hardwood or ceramic tile. Does the Fenvastar work as a residual to kill adult fleas once dried? We had a massive infestation which is dwindling but I still am seeing adults here and there. We put our dog to sleep 8 weeks ago and it seems like these adults just won't stop. I even hired a pest control company who soaked my house with Cy-Kick and they came roaring back about a week later that's when I turned to you guys and your recommendation of the kit for flea control.
    A

    FenvaStar EcoCap has about a 90 day residual inside but when you are treating for fleas you should be treating every 2 weeks with it and vacuuming every day or at least every other day.  We have a guide here that can explain.

    Q
    Do I have to spray everything in the apartment with FenvaStar EcoCap in order to kill all of the adults and the eggs?
    I don't know where the bugs go after they have eaten. I'm just seeing them crawling all over the walls.
    A

    You did not mention which pest you are treating for. FenvaStar EcoCap is a residual product. It may take some time to work as it is not a contact killer. Indoors, FenvaStar EcoCap should only be applied to baseboards, cracks and crevices, and listed areas on the product label. If you feel you must spray the carpets, Fenvastar is labeled to be used as a broadcast spray over carpeted areas. FenvaStar EcoCap will not kill egg masses as they are protected, and it is not a contact kill.

  • Asked by Jerry from Milwaukee, Wi.
    08/25/2014
    Q
    Is FenvaStar EcoCap good for treating Fleas on carpeting?
    Is this safe for pets and humans Once DRY on Carpeting for flea control?
    A

    FenvaStar EcoCAP is labeled for fleas and is completely safe for kids and pets once dry. Fenva While Fenvastar is labeled for fleas, we recommend using our Indooor/Outdoor Flea Control Kit .

    Using the kit you are able to treat with the same product Onslaught, inside the home as well as outside where the fleas are coming in from.  The Indoor/Outdoor Flea Kit also has the Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). IGR's are insect birth control and a beneficial product to any flea program. Please read below and let us know if you have any further questions.


    Using Onslaught Indoors : Mix 0.5 oz of Onslaught with 1 gallon of water (+ 1 oz of Martins IGR if needed, please see below) to treat a 1,000 sq ft area. Thoroughly apply as a fine particle broadcast spray to infested rugs, carpets, and pet resting areas 

    Using Onslaught Outdoors: Mix 0.5 to 1.0 fluid ounce of Onslaught in sufficient water to cover 1,000 square feet of lawn. Spray the entire lawn with a coarse, wet spray. Repeat this application in two weeks.

    Martins IGR: Once you've mixed up the Onslaught according to the instructions mentioned above, simply add the desired amount of Martins IGR to the mix and spray both the Onslaught and Martins IGR at the same time. We recommend about 1 oz of Martins per every 5 gallons of Onslaught solution that you mix up.

    Prior to treatment, carpets, draperies and upholstered furniture should be vacuumed thoroughly and the vacuum cleaner bag disposed of in an outdoor trash receptacle. Remove pets from area to be treated. After treatment, do not allow children and pets into treated areas until spray has dried. You should vacuum once daily every day for the next 14 days to help speed up the flea elimination process. A second application of Onslaught may be needed after 14 days.

    Q
    Can I mix Fenvastar with another insecticide (like jt eaton red label) ina gallon tank?
    A
    We are not familiar with JT Eaton "red label". We do not normally, recommend mixing Insecticides together as there normally is no need to . Depending on what you are treating you could mix an IGR with Fenvastar to help breakdown the reproductive cycle.

    Q
    Has anyone used FenvaStar EcoCap for roaches?
    A

    Roach control requires multiple efforts including multiple products for eradication. FenvaStar EcoCap is labeled for roaches and should be tank mixed with an IGR such as Gentrol. We do also recommend applying a professional bait gel in areas where you are not spraying or dusting. Dusting the wall voids is also a great option for better control. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Roaches for a successful eradication program.

    Can you spray plum trees with FenvaStar EcoCap

    FenvaStar EcoCap cannot be applie to edible vegetation. What exactly are you treating for? Depending on what you are treating for, you can use Malathion on Plum Trees.  You should apply at a rate of 2 tablespoons per gallon of water.  Typically Malathion will last for 30 days before it needs to be re-applied.  You should not apply this product within 2 weeks of harvesting.

    Q
    Does the FenvaStar EcoCap burn the plants?
    I have a 30gallon sprayer with 120psi I would like to do flea control and mosquito control. Products in the past burn my shrubs and certain sensitive trees. I'm looking for a good product to treat exterior during sunny days.
    A

    According to the manufacturer and the product label, certain plants may be sensitive to the final spray solution of FenvaStar EcoCap. A small-scale test is recommended to verify safety to ornamental plants. Spray and observe for one (1) week prior to application of an entire planting. It is a good idea to cover the plants or ornamentals before spraying around that area. The Tempo SC Ultra is not for use on plants being grown for sale or other commercial use.

    Q
    I live in Az . I want to kill all pests, including scorpions and cockroaches. Is Fenvestar ok to use monthly?
    A
    Fenvastar can be used monthly for general pest control in AZ. It is microencapsulated, which makes for a longer lasting residual and easier for pest to pick up on their bodies. You can reapply every 14-30 days indoors and out.

    Q
    Will Fenvastar EcoCap kill gypsy moth egg masses?
    The egg masses I can see and reach I have been slicing them with my box cutter blade then giving them a good soaking with the Fenvatar solution (1oz per gallon mix). Is there any effectiveness in what I am doing or am I just wasting my product? Probably sliced and soaked 100 egg masses today.
    A

    FenvaStar EcoCap will not kill egg masses as they are protected and it is not a contact kill.  Once the caterpillar hatch and crawl across a treated area they would be killed.
