  • Asked by Jennifer from St. Louis, Mo
    05/29/2018
    Q
    How long will it take the Temprid and Cimexa to get rid of my bed bugs?
    A

     

    When you are spraying Temprid SC for bed bugs, it is recommended that you spray every 7-10 days until you do not see activity for 30 days. How long the product takes to work depends on how severe the problem is to begin with, your other treatment methods, and how thorough treatments are. Temprid SC does offer a long residual, however it is important to perform follow-up treatments at close intervals to kill newly hatched bed bugs that may be present in the area. Please see our Bed Bug Treatment article for more information.

    Q
    Can Temprid SC Insecticide be sprayed in cabinets and drawers?
    A

    Temprid SC Insecticide can be applied inside cabinets as a spot application to the cracks and crevices and around plumbing. If spraying in cabinets where eating utensils are kept, you would need to remove all items, thoroughly clean the cabinets and let the application completely dry before putting dishes or eating utensils back into the drawers.

    Q
    Can I use a fogger to apply Temprid SC?

  • Asked by Stephanie from Hagerstown
    07/22/2014
    Q
    Can I use the same sprayer that I used for phantom with Temprid or will any residual
    From Phantom cause Temprid to not be effective? Do I have to buy another sprayer?
    A
    Temprid uses 2 different active ingredients. One that kills by transfer like Phantom and one that provides a quick kill. We always recommend to thoroughly rinse out the sprayer after each use. Using the same sprayer you previously applied Phantom with, will not counteract the Temprid.

    Q
    Temprid odor
    When I first used Temrid it had a very strong odor and its vapor stung my eyes. I stored the bottle in a dark temperature controlled room for a few months and am using it again. However, now the odor is gone. Has my Temrpid gone bad?
    A

    Temprid SC has a shelf life on 3-5 years. If it is kept out of extreme temperatures then it is fine. There should not be a strong odor. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Is Temprid SC safe near open food, inside a kitchen where children eat?

  • Asked by Joseph from Sarasota Florida

    Q
    I ordered Temprid SC and I'm wondering if Talstar is more appropriate for general pest control inside and outside the house.
    I just placed an order and I'm wondering if I ordered the right product. I ordered Temprid SC and I'm wondering if Talstar is more appropriate for general pest control inside and outside the house. My biggest problem is small spiders nesting on my walls and silverfish.
    A

    Actually, Temprid SC is great for spiders and other insects including silverfish. It has a quicker knockdown and a long lasting residual. It is labeled for general pest control for many insects for indoor and outdoor applications. You will mix 0.8 fl oz per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft and apply to indoor cracks and crevices once every 90 days inside and once a month to the exterior of the home.

  • Asked by Leigh from Lodi,ca
    05/30/2015
    Q
    I need to know what specific type of face mask/respirator to buy when using the Temprid SC.
    I looked in the MSDS, I understood it to say use the appropriate level protection for the actual concentration of aerosol you're needing to be protected from. So do i need a big fancy one or can I just buy a $20 spray paint & pesticide respirator from my local home depot? Also it says to wear tightly fitting eye goggles. Any suggestions on where to find kid size I guess because I'm very petite.
    A
    We do carry an inexpensive respirator mask that can be used when appying a water based insecticide such as Temprid SC. We do carry goggles but not aware of anyone that carries a kid size. Both the mask and goggles are in our Basic Safety Kit that also contains coveralls, shoe covers and chemical resistant gloves.

  • Asked by Sandy from Florida

    Q
    Treating stuffed animals
    Will this work?: I have some more likely than not infested stuffed animals. Some can't be laundered and the others still seem to be a problem even after multiple hot water washes and/or multiple double high heat dryings. Could I cover the entire inside of a bag with Temprid SC Insecticide, let it dry then place stuffed animals inside bag, remove air and leave sealed tight for "X" amount of days to kill infestations? Or even inset a rag that has been saturated and allowed to dry? Is it safe and will it work? If so, how long would I leave the bag(s) sealed? Would the stuffed animals still be safe for a toddler? He doesn't put them in his mouth but does snuggle at times. I understand that a person shouldn't come in contact with Temprid long term but perhaps I could even insert a barrier in between like old pillow cases. I am on a fixed income and have already spent my bill $$ to help fight these things so Nuvan Pro strips are not a possibility at this time. I'm all for going out of my way using some clever problem solving techniques but I need to know if it will work and be safe. PS: tossing the animals aren't an option right now. My toddler is Autistic and he is very attached to (has formed imaginary playmate attachments with since he was 9 months old) his animal buddies. It would be devastating to him if even 1 disappeared; (Believe me...I'm the one who launders them, lol. As it stands right now I have to leave them sealed in bags outside and take them out daily so he can see and play with them, strip his clothes off before we go in and bag and wash them then quickly bath him. Because of this daily ordeal his play place of choice is outside...all day long, in Florida where the temp is currently 102 degrees and I have things I need to do inside. Any thoughts and/or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    A
    No, Temprid SC should not be sprayed on stuffed animals or sprayed in a bag to place stuffed animals in. We would recommend placing all the stuffed animals in the dryer at high heat for at least an hour or placing them all in a bag and using Nuvan Pro Strips.

    Q
    I have a bedbug issue...I have used everything from neem to Temprid sc...does Temprid sc work?
    A

    Temprid SC Insecticide is the number one most effective Bed bug Concentrate on the market. This is why we have incorporated Temprid into our Bed bug kits. It takes more than one product to eradicate bed bugs. The combination of Temprid plus dust plus aerosol is highly effective. Please be sure to review our Bed Bug guide which lists all of our highly effective Bed bug kits.

    Q
    Can you mix Temprid, Phantom, and Nyguard? If so, how?
    A

    Unfortunately, you cannot mix all three products together. If you chose to, you may mix one of the Insecticides with the IGR, but never the two insecticides together.

    Q
    How many gallons of Temprid SC does it take to treat a house for bedbugs?
    I have 3 bedrooms, living area and hallway. How much in general, should I purchase? My house is about 1200 sq feet.
    A

    The 400 ml bottle of Temprid SC will make 50 gallons of finished solution if mixed at 8 ml per gallon of water. Each gallon will treat about 1,000 sq ft of crack and crevices. We recommend that you make a minimum of one application per week for 6-8 weeks or until there are no longer signs of the insect or bites upon proper inspection. We would advise you to apply the products in our Pyrethroid Resistant Bed Bug Kit. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Bedbugs for more information on a successful eradication program.

  • Asked by Chris from Gladewater, Tx
    03/19/2017
    Q
    Is Temprid SC the same as Tekko Pro?
    A

    Temprid SC and Tekko Pro are 2 different products.  Temprid SC is an insecticide that provides quick knockdown and long residual control of many different insect pests.  Tekko Pro is an insect growth regulator (IGR), which does not kill anything, but stops juvenile pests from growing into adults so that they are unable to reproduce.  These two products may be used together in the same tank mix to give you both actions in one spray.
