  • Asked by Shari from Lexington, Texas
    06/12/2013
    Q
    What is most effective product and treatment against scorpions outside and inside our home?
    We currently have a bottle of "High Yield 38 Plus." The Permethrin content is 38%. Since we have this product, do you think it would be effective against scorpions? What other suggestion?
    A
    While you could use the Hi Yield 38 Plus for scorpion control, a better option would be something that sits on the surface better and lasts longer. Cy Kick CS and Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion spray are the two best options for scorpion control. Both products are easy to mix with water and spray around the home. Not only will they kill scorpions, but will also kill all the other insects present around your home that they are feeding on. Since scorpions have thicker skin, you will need to spray a wider barrier around your home. Spray 2-3 feet up on the side and a minimum of 6 feet out on the ground. Make sure to also spray other entry points of the home like where wires/pipes enter the house, window frames and door frames.

    Q
    Once dry is Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control safe for my cats? Is it safe near raspberry plants?
    I have 4 outside cats, I can keep them off until it dries, but am concerned about them absorbing it after it is dried. Lots of wild raspberry plants. Will the plant absorb the insecticide? Will the fruit be safe to eat?
    A
    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control is safe for people and pets to be around after the treated area has dried. Hi-Yield 38-Plus is not labeled for application to bearing plants. We recommend Malathion 57% for raspberry and blackberry plants. Malathion is very versatile and can be used on many different edible vegetation plants.

  • Asked by Greg from Wausau, Wi
    06/10/2014
    Q
    My sprayer filter is continually clogging up with what looks like precipitated Permethrin-white and gooey stuff
    How do I prevent this?
    A
    We recommend filling your sprayer half way with water, add in the proper amount of product, place the top on the sprayer and shake vigorously, then remove the top and fill the sprayer the rest of the way with water.  The sprayer should work fine but you should only mix what you plan on using that day.  Solutions will clog a sprayer when it is left in the sprayer overnight or for a long period of time. So only mix what you are going to use right then and you should have no problems. You can also rinse the nozzle, filter and wand with hot water.
