    Q
    Can Martins I.G. Regulator be used to get rid of roaches in kitchen?
    Is it alright for me to use this behind and under the stove (where I see roaches most often)? More generally, is it even okay for me to use this around the kitchen at all?
    A

    Yes! This Martins I.G. Regulator can be used behind and under the stove in your kitchen for roach control. You may reapply ever 60 days for preventative treatments, or as needed for active infestations.  it should not be used alone to treat though.

    If you are treating for roaches, then be sure to keeps spray low and bait high. We have more tips in our Roach Treatment Guide here

    Q
    Can Martins I.G. Regulator be used in outdoor garden area?
    Very wet outside and the Cedar mulch areas are harboring lots of gnats, Can this be used as a spray on top of the garden area and outdoor pots? Also, I have regulator plants and some fruit plants, is it dangerous to consume fruit if the mulch is sprayed around the fruit trees and plants?
    A

    Yes,  Martins IGR can be applied indoors and outdoors (lawns, trees and shrubs) for the listed pests as directed on the label. You generally want to apply the Martins IGR when it will not rain for at least 24 hours after application.  This insures that the product has enough time to dry and adhere to the surface it has been applied to. It should not be applied to containerized plants or near any edible vegetation.

    Q
    Is there an expiration date for this product. I have some from 2016. Is it still effective?
    A
    Martins IGR does not have a specific expiration date but it does have a shelf life of 3 to 5 years as long as it is stored in a cool, dry place. It could still be effective this year but it will depend on how it was stored.

    Q
    Should I take bedding off before using Martins I.G. Regulator?
    Should I strip down bed that my dog lays on and spray mattress with ig regulater its in a room with laminent so I would think that would be the only place in that room that would carry flea
    A

    Yes, Martins IGR can be sprayed in areas where fleas may harbor, such as carpets, furniture, pet sleeping areas and rugs as long as you are following the instructions on the product label, however, this product is designed to stop the fleas' reproductive cycles. An IGR will not actually kill the fleas, so you would still want to use an insecticide labeled for this area. 

    Instead of using this product, you may use a product such as PT Alpine Flea and Bed Bug Aerosol which is an insecticide and IGR together in one product. Please be sure to review the product label for more information and complete application instructions. Also, please take a moment to review our How to Get Rid of Fleas Guide for more information and helpful tips on eradicating this pest.
