    The Hi Yield 38 Plus will typically hold up to the outdoor elements for at least 30 days and often longer. When using for mosquitoes focus your sprays on the main harborage areas like thick brush and dense foiliage of flowers, bushes, ornamentals and trees around the home.

    Q
    Outdoor pest control
    What is the best concentrated overall pest control to use in back yard? I'm considering Hi-Yield 38 plus but up for suggestions. I want to kill mainly mosquitoes, spiders and ants.
    A

    Hi Yield 38 Plus is a good product, however, it is not labeled for spiders.

    We would recommend a product called Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion Insecticide. It is labeled for mosquitoes, spiders and ants. This would be an excellent product to use in your backyard. It can also be used inside as well as a crack and crevice spray if needed. It has a quick knockdown as well as a residual of 30 days.

    Hello; I am trying to humanely rid my yard of a gopher. I don't want to kill him, just make him leave. A friend told me to use this product He stated they hate it and will leave Can you please tell me if this is correct and safe??
    A
    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin is an insecticide. This will not be effective for gophers. We would recommend using a repellent, such as Holy Moley Organic Mole Repellent. It is labeled for gophers, as well as various other burrowing animals. This concentrated formula repels animals through taste and smell by granules with castor oil as the active ingredient. Holy Moley can be applied with a standard broadcast spreader and is effective for up to six weeks.

  • Asked by Carl from Colorado Springs, Co
    08/02/2015
    Q
    How do I mix Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin for scorpions?
    I have been getting scorpions in my home. Several products seem to kill them but not wipe them out. I have just purchased Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin and need to know about best ratio for a gallon of water.
    A

    Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin  should be mixed at 0.8 fluid ounces per gallon of water. 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.
