What is the best way to use Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control - 38% Permethrin, to prevent cockroaches from getting inside the home?

Answer:

Hi-Yield 38-Plus Insect Control- 38% Permethrin can be used outdoors only for cockroaches (do not use indoors). According to the product label: Mix 1.6 fl Oz. (3 1/4 Tablespoons) of this product per 1 gallon of spray solution to make a 0.5% spray emulsion. Spray a 6 to 8 foot wide band of soil around the perimeter of the house. Treat the foundation wall to a height of 2 to 3 feet. Use a spray volume of 2 to 10 gallons of 0.5% emulsion per 1,000 square feet. If mulch or debris is present, a higher volume application rate may be needed to ensure adequate coverage. Note: Residual control will vary depending on exposure of the treated area to weathering conditions (temperature, sunlight, moisture). Retreat on a monthly schedule while insects are likely to be active. If you need to treat indoors we recommend our Roach Control Kit Rotation A. This kit comes with all of the necessary products needed to treat an indoor infestation and enough product to use outdoors to stop new roaches from moving in.
