    Q
    So why can only use 8mil and not 16mil for bedbugs? Isn't 16mil stronger?
    What if I'm treating the outside of my house and the inside? isn't 16mil per gallon of water stronger?
    A

    If treating for bedbugs, you will apply 8 ml of Temprid FX Insecticide? per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft. It can be applied in 7-10 days.  You would use the higher rate of 16 milliliters (0.54 fluid ounces) per 1 gallon of water for faster knockdown of flying insects, like hornets, wasps, and yellow jackets.  Please follow the label instructions.

    Q
    Is either Temprid FX or Termidor SC a polymer type insecticide?
    A

    Neither Temprid FX nor Termidor SC contain a polymer.  They are both suspend concentrates.  Suspend Polyzone would be an insecticide that contains a special polymer to help it last longer on outside surfaces.

  • Asked by David from Tulsa, Ok
    11/29/2018
    Q
    Does Temprid FX Insecticide need to be rotated with another product to prevent a resistance building amongst pests?
    A

    Since Temprid FX Insecticide is a dual mode of action insecticide, it is less likely to develop a resistance than other insecticides. Depending on the target pests you are treating, we would suggest rotating every 12 months or when a decrease in effectiveness occurs. For general purpose applications, Temprid FX Insecticide should be applied every 90 days indoors and every 30 days outdoors.

    Q
    Will Temprid FX Insecticide kill roaches and bed bugs?
    A

    Temprid FX Insecticide will kill adult listed insects including roaches and bedbugs. It should not be the sole product for roach control or bedbug treatment applications. We do offer Bedbug Kits (some contain Temprid FX) and you could use Gentrol IGR/Gentrol Point Source Stations and roach bait gel if treating both pests along with non-chemical efforts for both. Please take a few moments to review our treatment articles/videos on How to Get Rid of Roaches and How to Get Rid of Bedbugs for a successful program.

    Q
    How can I get rid of roaches and rats?
    I have roaches in my house, mainly in my kitchen, I have tried store bought stuff but it doesn't work. I know I have critters in my attic as well as my yard as well. I'm looking for the best products to get rid of them, the house probably should be tented, but I don't have that in my budget...I also need something safe..I have three dogs.
    A

    Temprid FX is a good all-around product that can be used for roach control and a wide variety of insects. Temprid FX needs to be applied on baseboards, cracks and crevices, it can also be used safely in the attic. You will need to keep pets out of the area being treated until it's all completely dry. For a thorough roach control, we recommend using our Roach Control Kit A, not only will you have an insecticide but a bait gel and an insect growth regulator to interrupt their reproductive cycle, it also includes insect glue boards to monitor your treatment. We recommend reading over our Roach Control Treatment Guide for further tips and information.

    For rat control, we would recommend using the Protecta Rat Bait Station and Fastrac Blox kit. You'll need to wear gloves when handling the stations as well as the bait. Fill the stations and place at least one on each side of the home, you will need to use either stakes or a concrete block to secure the stations. We recommend reading over our Rat Control Treatment Guide for further tips and information.

  • Asked by Leonard from Crosby, Tx

    Q
    Can I use Temprid FX in a barn infested with fleas?
    My barn is infested with fleas I have used several products that has slowed them some, my stalls are covered. I pulled all straw and shavings out then sprayed with a product I have used in the past. I need help.
    A

    While Temprid FX is labeled to kill fleas, it does not include barns as part of the areas that can be treated with this product. You can use Tempo SC Ultra 32 mL along with NyGuard IGR to help disrupt the life cycle of the fleas or Onslaught Insecticide along with NyGuard IGR. Make sure all food and water troughs are covered or removed and the animals are removed as well. Let the treated areas completely dry before letting the animals back into the barns. For flea treatments, you can retreat every 14 days as needed. We also recommend that the animals get their own flea treatment done as they may also reintroduce fleas back into the barn. We recommend reading over our Flea Treatment Guide for further tips and information.

  • Asked by Gayle from Phoenix

    Q
    Can Temprid FX be used around my fruit trees without touching the trunks and when is it safe to eat the fruit?
    Temprid FX was just sprayed today, 6/7/19 all around my edible fruit trees into the soil, if it gets into the roots would it make the fruit inedible? How far away from tomato plants, and other herbs can it be sprayed?
    A

    Temprid FX Insecticide is not labeled to be used on or around anything edibles.  You should keep applications outside of the dripline on fruit trees and at least 15 feet away from anything edible such as vegetables and herbs just to avoid any contact.  Since it does contain a systemic active ingredient it can be absorbed by the roots if it gets down to them on the fruit trees, it would not be recommended to consume anything from the the tree for at least a growing season to be safe.
