  • 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

    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 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.

  • 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.

  • Asked by Art from Cary, Nc
    03/22/2016
    Q
    Even though it's a little early in the year for mosquitoes to be out, will using an IGR like NyGuard IGR on the first seasonal treatment help prevent reproduction?
    Using Nyguard with Bifen IT for mosquito prevention
    A

    You can always add an IGR labeled for mosquitoes such as NyGuard IGR to your insecticide. Mosquitoes generally do not bite when temperatures are less than 50 degrees F, and they do need a water source to breed. It is always best to treat preventatively than to wait until populations are high. Please see our Mosquito Prevention Guide for more information about how to keep populations down.

  • Asked by Sharon from Richmond, Va
    08/25/2016
    Q
    How do you apply NyGuard IGR to rooms with hardwood floors?
    A

    NyGuard IGR would be applied to the cracks and crevices around the rooms with hard floor surfaces.  In most cases, the fleas will develop in upholstered furniture, pet beds, rugs and carpeted areas as hard surfaces are not very habitable for them.  Spray directly into cracks and crevices on the floor as well. Vacuuming the crevices immediately before spraying will help to remove some of the flea eggs and stimulate the developing pupa to become exposed. With heavy infestations, you may need to retreat after 14 days to get rid of the stragglers.

  • Asked by Kirk from Ca
    11/04/2016
    Q
    What are the best adulticides to mix with NyGuard for German cockroaches?
    A

    A great option for Gentrol roach control would be Temprid SC mixed with Nyguard IGR. Temprid SC has two active ingredients in it that work together to combat insects. It can be used every 21 days indoors for roaches as needed. The mixing ratio is between 8-16 ml per gallon of water. Also, it is recommended that you use a bait gel, such as Maxforce Magnum, inside of your cabinets and drawers. Be sure not to spray any insecticide on the bait gel, because it will contaminate it and roaches will not consume it. 

    Please check out our Roach Guide with tips on how to treat and prevent roaches.

    Q
    Can you give me an amount of NyGuard IGR per gallon of water for mosquitoes over a 2 acre area please?
