This was from my notes on my phone so I'm not positive on how it was mixed or sprayed.

    A lot of the stuff at box stores is the same chemical but heavily diluted.

    Talstar P (0.008%); 25 gallon
    Bifen LP Insecticide Granules (0.2%); 8lbs
    Prentox ExciteR (66%); 25 gallon
    NyGard IGR (0.001%); 25 gallon
    Ultracid Flea IGR (0.88%); 25 oz


    Nice. That helps.

    I just bought Bifen XTS, Demon Max, and re-upped on more Permethrin.

          I have used Tempo (Bayer $$), Bifen XT, and Wisdom. I have been using Bifen XT for quite a while. In addition,I also put orange oil in the sprayer. Orange oil helps with mosquitoes in shrubs/landscape. You can get all three at Atwoods. I know you can get Wisdom at TSC.

            I use Tempo 1% and a bulb duster. I dust all the weep holes and wind sills.

                I use Termidor on the outside perimeter for general pest control and Bifen on the bushes and lawn 20-30 feet from the house to control mosquitos.

                    Tempo is some of the best stuff made. Safe around the house and lasts a long time. I think Tractor Supply carries it along with some other farm and ranch stores. Comes in pint or quart bottles or powder.
