  • Asked by Cathy from Clyde, Ohio
    09/06/2013
    Q
    Will Tempo SC Ultra treat yellow jackets in a wall?
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra can be applied in a wall void, but dust products are much better suited for flying insects. Our most popular dust  for bees/wasp is Tempo Dust.  You will need a hand duster to apply it with.  It usually works within 24 to 48 hours. You want to go up to the opening where they are flying in and out of at dusk or at night when they are not active and puff twice directly into the hole.  Then pull the duster out and puff directly at the hole to cover the opening from about 5 inches away.  This is the most efficient and fastest way to eliminate a bee/yellow jacket/wasp nest.

  • Asked by Tim from Fargo, Nd
    09/08/2015
    Q
    If I spray my yard for mosquitoes, should Tempo SC Ultra work for 3 to 4 weeks? What if I mow my grass in this time?
    A

    We recommend that you mow your lawn 1-2 days prior to applying the Tempo SC Ultra for mosquito control. You will also want to focus on applying the product to the undersides of non-edible tree leaves and shrubs. You can apply also around window and door frames, the siding and cracks and crevices for control. You will mix 8-16 ml per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft. It does have an outdoor residual of 4 weeks.

    Q
    How do we treat for bees around our pool?
    I need something that will leave a residue to fend them off, yet, not stain concrete
    A
    To treat bees around your pool, you want to use a product like Tempo SC Ultra. Tempo SC Ultra will leave a non staining residual in areas treated around your pool. Please keep on mind that this product will kill the bees when they come in contact with the treated areas, but will not stop them from entering. Bees/wasp are attracting to water, because they are looking for water.

  • Asked by Thomas from Ireland
    09/22/2016
    Q
    Is Tempo SC the product you spray around windows and doors to keep flies away for 3 months at a time?
    A

    Tempo SC Ultra has a residual of 30 days outdoors and 90 days indoors. It is labeled for flies as well. You will use between 8-16 ml per gallon of water.

    If you are looking for a 90 day residual indoors and outdoors, we would recommend using Suspend Polyzone. This has an additional polymer in it that protects the product from the outdoor elements.

  • Asked by Jessica from Cave In Rock Il
    08/08/2013
    Q
    Will Tempo harm fowl such as chickens or quineas if they are on the treated area after the spray has dried?
    I know that fowl peck the ground and eat bugs however I have a serious flea problem and my guineas are not yet old enough to be turned out. I want to spray my yard and barn
    A
    Unless the chickens are consuming the Tempo SC directly there should be no effect on the bird or their eggs. Once the product has dried, it only has a toxicity level of that to kill something as small as an insect. The insect walks across it, picks up a little bit on their feet/bodies and ingests it as they groom themselves. For there to be even a chance of your chicken having any effect from the Tempo on the bugs, they would have to eat at least their weight worth in grasshoppers that have died from it.  All animals need to removed from the treatment area while applying until the application dries.

    Q
    Can Tempo SC Ultra be used on raspberries?
    A
    Tempo SC Ultra is not labeled to be used on any fruits or vegetables at all no matter the timing. We do carry another product called Bayer Advanced Vegetable and fruit spray which contains the same active ingredient Cyfluthrin but in a different formulation which allows it to be used on edible vegetation.

  • Asked by Miranda from Bricelyn, Mn
    07/05/2013
    Q
    How do I know if I put enough Tempo SC in my yard to get rid of Mosquitoes?
    A
    If you used the Tempo SC at the rate of 8ml per gallon of water and treated the harborage areas until wet, but not dripping then you have applied it for sufficient coverage. Make sure when treating for mosquitoes you are spraying in the foliage of neighboring trees, bushes and ornamentals as well as moist areas of your lawn where they will tend to lay their eggs. Tempo is a residual product and will last at least 30 days outdoors so only spray in monthly intervals. It can take several weeks for you to see a noticeable drop in the population so make sure you give the product plenty of time to work and bring the activity down to a tolerable level. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
