    Q
    What should I do if Temprid FX was accidentally sprayed on a couch and chair not thinking about the restrictions?
    A

    Since Temprid FX Insecticide is not to be applied on surfaces that come in contact with the skin or on the surface area of the couch, only to the tufts,folds and seams, we would recommend contacting Bayer directy for instructions on the treatment/cleaning of the couch and chair. Bayer can be reached at 800-331-2867.

    Q
    Is Temprid FX Insecticide recommended for Springtail control? Can this be applied around the foundation or would a granular insecticide be better?
    A

    Yes, Temprid FX Insecticide is a great product for springtails. Depending on how healthy the springtail is and how long it spends on a surface treated by Temprid, will depend on how long it actually takes for each individual one to die. It could be hours or even a day. Also, if you are not treating the main nest and only the satellite colony, you are only temporarily fixing your problem. More will appear as they continue to migrate and you will need to fix the moisture issue in your home that is attracting the springtails as well. Until the moisture is gone or the main nest is found and eliminated, you will have an ongoing battle with the pest.

    Please view our How to Get Rid of Springtails Guide for more information.

    Q
    Can Temprid FX Insecticide be applied along baseboards around the perimeters of the room where Cimexa Dust has previously been applied?
    A

    We would recommend vacuuming along baseboards and wiping any residue in other areas where Cimexa was previously applied before spraying with Temprid FX Insecticide.

    Once the Temprid FX application has full dried, then you can reapply Cimexa Dust using a bellow hand duster along the same baseboards but also around electrical outlest, around windows, doors, and in wall voids.

    Q
    How fast does Temprid FX kill bed bugs?
    When bed bugs come into contact with Temprid FX, how fast does it kill them?
    A

    Temprid FX Insecticide uses two active ingredients for a dual mode of action for insects. Once the bed bugs have crossed the treated area, the beta Cyfluthrin and Imidacloprid start working together immediately to attack the nerves and stop normal nerve transmittal signals throughout the the insect. The exact kill time of how long it takes, we are not able to determine. It may take a few hours up to 24 or more depending on a few factors.

    Bed Bugs do require a combination of products to fully eradicate and repeat treatments every 7-10 days until you can go 30 days without seeing any signs of bed bugs, bites or skin casings. Please review our How to Get Rid of Bed Bugs Treatment Guide and Bed Bug Kits for all the necessary products to eradicate.

  • Asked by Vanessa from Tullahoma
    11/10/2021
    Q
    I applied Temprid FX Insecticide at the rate of 16ml per gallon of water both inside and outside my home, why am I still seeing roaches 4 days later?
    A

    It is normal to still see roaches once treatments begin using Temprid FX. This insecticide contains two active ingredients that offer a quickdown but also a non repellent residual that goes undetected as roaches cross the treated areas. This non repellency quality allows roaches to transfer the active ingredient throughout the colony.

    Eliminating roaches is not a quick treatment depending how severe the infestation is. Repeat treatments will be required and Temprid FX should not be the sole product used.  When dealing with a roach infestation, you will need to be sure to eliminate the food and water source for the roaches and use an insecticide (Temprid FX), a roach gel bait, and an insect growth regulator (IGR) labeled for roaches to completely eradicate the population.

    Please take a moment to review our Roach Control Kits and Treatment Guide for step by step instructions on how to eliminate a roach infestation.

    Q
    Does Temprid FX Insecticide create toxic vapor/fume?
    When we treated the kitchen with Temprid FX, the only area we sprayed was the baseboards and we opened the windows to help air it out for ~ 5 hours. We left apples, garlic, onions baskets and potted herbs on the countertop. They were further away from the baseboards so the spray wouldn't get on them but we are wondering about the vapor released into the air while it was drying. Should we throw them away? Should we wash all kitchen wares? Or only those that are not in the cupboards?
    A

    Temprid FX does not release toxic vapors or fumes into the air. You would only need to throw away food or wash utensils if any came in contact with the product.

  • Asked by Th from New Jersey
    12/14/2021
    Q
    What are the effects if some Temprid FX stays on the skin and if it's inhaled for awhile?
    I used a very flimsy mask while applying the spray, and after some time, it made me very lightheaded. Also, some spray got on my forehead. I wiped it off with a wet towel but didn't really rinse. I probably got some on my wrist as it dripped from my glove. This happened several hours ago, so I'm asking about its effects on people, not about the immediate action to take because it's too late.
    A

    If you have gotten Temprid FX Insecticide or any insecticide on your skin, the proper steps are to immediately take off contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. The product label advises that to contact a physician or poison control center immediately and be sure to let them know you also inhaled the product for assistance.

    Please have the product label and SDS Sheet available for additional safety information on the product.

    Q
    Can I apply Temprid FX on top of areas where I've applied Diatomaceous Earth?
    A

    No, it is recommended to apply Temprid FX or any liquid insecticide prior to applying any type of insecticide dust. Once the liquid spray application has dried, you can follow behind and apply the insecticide dust or DE. 

    Dust applicaitons are best applied using a Hand Duster to reach deep into cracks and crevices along baseboards, under cabients, behind outlets, around plumbing and other inaccessible areas.

    View our How to Apply Dust Video for more information.
