  • Asked by William from Margate, Florida
    01/02/2020
    Q
    What happens if I use a non-repellent and an IGR, such as NyGuard IGR, on roaches?
    Why do they scatter if it is a flushing agent? Do NyGuard and Alpine WSG act like a flushing agent when mixed?
    A

    NyGuard IGR and Alpine WSG are not considered flushing agents. Alpine WSG (water-soluble granule) is a non-pyrethroid, non-repellent broad-spectrum insecticide that uses the active ingredient Dinotefuran. NyGuard IGR is an Insect Growth Regulator which is like a kind of birth control for insects. It will stop the roaches from being able to reproduce and mature further into their lifecycles. The combination of an insecticide and an IGR is recommended when dealing with pests like roaches. Nyguard IGR can be added to Alpine WSG with no negative side effects. For more information on treating roaches, please review our article on How to Get Rid of Roaches for more helpful tips.

    Q
    Can I use NyGuard with deltamethrin?
    can i use this product mixed with deltametrin based insecticide and if i can use it in a mist fogger.? also with talstar or defense.
    A
    Nyguard is labeled to be fogged and it is labeled for use with any water based synthetic pyrethroid such as Suspend SC, Talstar P or Defense. You should note however that none of the synthetic pyrethoids you mentioned (Suspend Sc, Talstar P, or Defense) are labeled for fogging and cannot be used in this manner. We do have a wide range of fogging concentrates which you can see here: Fogging Solutions

    Q
    I live in Canada and would like to order Nyguard, Onslaught and Sterifab, are they allowed to enter Canada?
    Hi, I don't know Canadian regulations regarding pesticide importation. I wonder if you have shipped Onslaught, Nyguard and Sterifab to Canada from the past, because I'd like to order them to ship to Vancouver B.C. Please advise - thanks.
    A
    Nyguard IGR should be able to be sold to Canada. However, we do not ship outside of the U.S. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.

  • Asked by Branden from Woodburn, Oregon
    07/12/2013
    Q
    Does NyGuard repel ants?
    Is NyGuard detectable to ants? If mixed with Arilon, will ants cross over Arilon without detecting it so they will take the NyGuard into the nest?
    A
    The NyGuard IGR is not detectable to ants or any other insect so it would be picked up by the ants and transferred along to others in the colony at the same time as the Dupont Arilon insecticide you are using. Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.

  • Asked by Stefanie from Vincennes, In
    10/11/2013
    Q
    What are the names of an insecticide that stops insect reproduction?
    A

    Insecticides do not stop the reproduction cycle of the insect, they eradicate them. IGRs (insect growth regulators) halt the reproductive cycle. Some IGR's that we carry are NyGuard, Gentrol and Archer. I have included a link below to all of them that are available on our website.

  • Asked by Bill from Parkland, Fl
    04/24/2014
    Q
    When using Nyguard in a misting system with Sector how much is mixed in the 55 gallon container?
    A

    NyGuard IGR is not designed to stay in solution the way that Sector, Riptide, or similar misting concentrates are made to do, so it would not be advised to use it in a mosquito misting system. A better application for the NyGuard IGR would be in a pump sprayer or mist blower so that you can apply it to foliage in the area where it will last much longer. Please take a few moments to review our Mosquito Treatment Guide for more tips and details.

  • Asked by Kerry from Safety Harbor, Fl
    07/06/2014
    Q
    I have a 120 gallon water tank I want to use this with Bifen and spray with a water pump and hose end sprayer
    What are the recommended quantities
    A
    NyGuard IGR is typically not a product that can be used in a hose end sprayer as few sprayers will dial down to the small amount of this product that is needed per gallon. You can use it in a hand pump sprayer with Bifen IT at the rate of 1 ounce of Bifen IT and 4-8 ml of NyGuard IGR per gallon of water. Once you have treated your first time with the mixture of the two products, you can use the hose end sprayer to apply the Bifen IT again 30 days later while the NyGuard is continuing to work. The rate for a hose end sprayer for Bifen IT is the same as a pump sprayer, just put the concentrate into the reservoir, set the dial to 1 ounce and start spraying.

  • Asked by Joe from Naperville, Il
    07/22/2014
    Q
    How can I make Cyonara and Bifen I/t more effective against Mosquitoes?
    I used a mosquito service which worked in the beginning of last year. I then purchased cyronara and bifen I/t from you and Mosquitos are still attacking. What other options do you suggest? I bought mosquito barrier to try. Should I up the dose usage? This is in the Chicagoland area where it's been raining a lot. Also we back up to a forest preserve. Please help!
    A
    There really is  no need to mix Cyonara and Bifen together for Mosquitoes. We would recommend to mix Nyguard IGR with Bifen or Cyonara. This product will break even the toughest insect's reproductive cycle to stop future infestations. The rain could be washing the Mosquito barrier away. It could also prevent the mosquitoes from coming in contact with the Insecticide.

  • Asked by Edward from Apache Junction Az.
    07/25/2014
    Q
    Can I mix 2-[methyl-2-(4-phenoxyphenoxy) ethoxy] Pyridine with Cypermethrin concentrate for later use?
    I want to store and use these concentrates with a percentage of both for german cockroaches to get them and the eggs. The mix seems to work well, can they be mixed and stored together? I like the ml system of the NyGuard IGR container. I purchased almost all my pesticides from Do My Own Pest Control. I made a quick purchase of the Cypermethrin, I forgot to order a fast knock down on my last order. Just thought I'd check to be sure I don't get a bad reaction storing these chemical concentrates in the same container.
    A
    Products containing Cypermethrin and Pyridine are meant to be stored in their original containers only and should not be mixed together.  The dilution rates are different for the two chemicals as well so you would not get an accurate measurement using one bottle for both products.  We would not advise that you mix them and store them together.  Once the products are mixed with water, also be sure to use within 24 hours.

    Q
    Can I mix Nygar IGR with KLeen Green & Boric Acid
    Hi, Can I mix Nygar IGR, Kleen Green & Boric Acid as a good combo against many insect issues inside? Do I need something else? I usually mix 1 quart hot water, 1/2 cup Eaton brand Boric acid, then IGR (how much woudl I add of NYglar?) plus some Kleen green filled to 1 gallon in hand sprayer. Thanks
    A
    Although, we do not see why you would not be able to mix Nylar in with Kleen Green Boric acid, we can say for sure. Please contact the manufacturer of Kleen Green to make sure Nylar will not counteract the effectiveness.

  • Asked by John from Harrisburg, Pa
    07/24/2015
    Q
    Is NyGuard IGR stronger or more concentrated than Archer IGR?
    NyGuard is 10% pyridine and Archer is 1.3% pyridine. Which one is more effective? NyGuard comes in 140 ML and Archer comes in a pint(460 ML), however NyGuard is much more expensive.
    A

    Nyguard is sold in a more concentrated form, but you will dilute down to the same usage rate as the Archer if you follow the product label, .01-.03%. You will get the same results when using either product.

    Q
    Bad fleas in shady yard. Used Bifen Granules and Cyonara 2-3 weeks ago. Still getting bites. What to do? IGR?
    I am spraying weekly with Cyonara and had beneath the deck professionally treated with pyrethrin. Yard has a lot of squirrel and skunk traffic
    A

    Yes, you are missing the IGR in this Flea treatment. You can mix in Nyguard IGR. Please be aware that it is recommended to only treat every two weeks max with Cyonara.
