  • Asked by M from Redmond, Wa

    Q
    Is Temprid FX Insecticide safe on bushes, trees, and other landscape plants?
    The label mentions some of this for specific things (like spraying trees for mosquitoes) but I wanted to confirm this is safe to spray on various types of bushes and other ornamental plants.
    A

    Yes, Temprid FX Insecticide can be applied to all shrubs, trees, and other foliage around the house or where you are trying to provide relief.  It should be directed not only on top of the leaves and plants but on the underside of the leaves as well which is where the mosquitoes hang out during the heat of the day.

    Q
    Spraying around windows and screens from the inside
    I live in a high-rise and have a problem with spiders around my windows on the outside, and the little ones come through crevices. I plan to spray around the parameters and the screens (the webs are all across the outside of them) then close the windows. How long do I need to wait until I can open them again? I always have a good breeze coming in. I'm sure some of the spray will come in while spraying, as well.
    A
    We would recommend keep the windows closed just until your application of Temprid FX Insecticide has had time to completely dry. This usually is within the hour. There should be very little odor after the application if any.

  • Asked by Robert from Fayetteville
    10/06/2022
    Q
    Is there a more cost effective solution for roaches?
    Temprid FX is over 4 times more expensive per fl oz than Bifen IT. I get that the residual effects of Bifen IT last about half that of Temprid FX. If they work about the same overall, wouldn't it make sense to just use Bifen IT? What are your thoughts on this?
    A

    Temprid FX would be the best insecticide to use for active roach infestations due to the 2 active ingredients and dual modes of action it uses. Bifen IT would be suggested for general maintenance or preventative applications but not the recommended product if you have active roaches. 
     
    Active roach infestations require a combination of products and repeat treatments every 7-14 days to eradicate. Using a residual spray alone will not fully eradicate a roach colony. We recommend one of our Roach Control Kits to provide you with a residual insecticide, roach bait and insect growth regulator to help stop the reproduction. These kits provide enough products for the initial treatment as well as 2-3 follow up treatments. 

    View our How to Get Rid of Roach Treatment Guide for more information.

    Q
    Will Temprid FX Insecticide work on adult drain flies hovering around windows and baseboards?
    I am treating the breeding sites with Gentrol foam. I am starting another round of drain treatments. I have adult flies on several windows and by my front door. They seem to be going under the foundation of my house and escaping by the windows.
    A

    Temprid FX Insecticide could kill those adult drain flies that contact a treated area long enough to receive a lethal dose.  Please refer to our How to get rid of Drain Flies guide for fthe most effective treatment.

    Q
    Which product is best to kill Zika mosquitoes?
    A

    Temprid FX Insecticide would be a great product to use to treat for mosquitoes that may carry the Zika virus.  The key is to apply to the underside of the leaves on trees/bushes where the adults lay during the day.  You can also find our Mosquito Control Guide here.

    Please keep in mind that insecticides are not a substitute for personal protection, and that we cannot provide medical treatment advice.

  • Asked by Darla
    01/11/2019
    Q
    What do I use to clean residual of Temprid FX from my furniture?
    A

    The most effective way to remove the residual of Temprid FX Insecticide that has been applied to furniture on surfaces that will have skin contact is to steam clean the surface area. Per the product label, Temprid FX should be applied to only to the infested tufts, seams, folds, and edges, but do not apply to flat surfaces where prolonged human contact will occur.
