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.

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.

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.
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.
