No, Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator is not labeled to control tent caterpillars. Unfortunately, we do not carry any Insect Growth Regulator that is labeled for tent caterpillars.
We would recommend a foliar spray insecticide like Natural Guard Caterpillar Killer Spray with Bt mixed at 2 fl. ozs. per 3 gallons of water (4 tsp. per gallon) for tent caterpilllars. Please review the product label for more information.
Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator is not labeled as a repellent insecticide however will go undetected by insects as they cross the treated area. There are NO insecticidal properties with Insect Growth Regulators, therefore IGR’s should be mixed with an insecticide labeled for the target insect you are treating for best results. IGR’s only disrupt the growth process of immature insects and work more as birth control to help control and stop the reproduction cycle.
You may mix Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator at 1 oz per gallon of water and add the Bifen XTS at 0.32 - 0.64 oz. into the same gallon of water to treat 1000 sq ft. We have very helpful articles on mosquito and mole cricket control. Please take a moment to review the guides below for more information and helpful tips on eradicating these pests.
