    Q
    Will Mosquito Barrier harm bees?
    We have a garden and many flowering plants and flowers. Is this product safe for bees?
    A

    Mosquito Barrier should not harm bees once the treated area has dried, but it could potentially harm them if they are in the area during application.  We would recommend applying in the early morning or late evening when the bees are less active in order to avoid contact.

    Q
    Can I mix Mosquito Barrier with other DMOPC products?
    Mix with the BIFEN IT
    A
    Mosquito Barrier works great by itself. We cannot recommend to mix Bifen in with Mosquito Barrier because the mode of action is different. Bifen kills by the insect coming in contact with it. Mosquito Barrier repels the mosquitoes.

  • Asked by Glenn from Greenwood, In
    04/13/2016
    Q
    Why not just use Mosquito Barrier to kill our mosquitoes?
    It's all natural and does as much or more than others. We are trying to figure out the best and most economical way to handle our mosquito problem ourselves instead of hiring a professional. Will mosquito barrier do the trick? Will any additional products be needed?
    A

    Mosquito Barrier actually does work very well when applied according to the instructions on the product label.  In order to do a complete treatment, you will also need to eliminate any standing water sources (if any) and use a mosquito larvicide like Bonide Mosquito Beater to treat any standing water sites that cannot be controlled (such as in a ditch where water may collect after a rain).  You may want to take a moment to look over our article on Mosquito Control if you have not already done so.
