Thank you, great to the point info and video! I’d purchased a product here in Australia called “Biting Midge & Mosquito Barrier” with active ingredient Bifenthrin. I think it might be similar? I wasn’t sure what I should apply to and I’ve a rechargeable sprayer to apply. Just what I was looking for. Should I apply after each rain event?
I bought a backsprayer and use the Bifin and IGR,. Got rid of everything, even those annoying NoSeeums here in SC. Along with some roach gel, I haven't even seen a palmetto bug aka cockroach in over a year and they used to be around all the time.
Im new to this and not trying to say its wrong I just thought Bifen wasn’t for a fogger I bought some one guard and use it with a pump sprayer but would love to be able to fog ibstead
See product label "Apply with hand-held and back pack sprayers or mist blowers, ground sprayers, power sprayers, truck mounted hydraulic sprayers or mist blowers. Do not apply by air or with hand held or truck mounted cold aerosol ULV sprayers and thermal fogging devices. For best results apply when the mosquitoes are most active. Application during the cooler hours of the night or early mornings is recommended."
@@thebumpchannel right but this is linked back to the site that you own. It would be like if I had a site called “I’m amazing” and then somebody was like hey are you amazing and I was like please refer to my site that says I’m amazing. Yours is one of the few sites that says do not use a spreader sticker.
My wife would disagree, lol. She welts up like crazy. Hard to enjoy yourself outside the mosquitos are so bad around me. You stand still for a second and are covered in the little suckers.
Lambda-Cyhalothrin is 75% cheaper per gallon-mixed. I spray all of those but I switched to a high-volume sprayer b/c all of those chemicals also work on ants & they all last longer in soil then they do on plants. So spraying more gets more.
Even at the lowest rate (0.2 oz per gallon) Bifen is cheaper (@ 1 oz per gallon) at prices I'm seeing. $0.47 per gallon mixed (Bifen) vs $0.53 (LC) need to check the math maybe unless I'm missing something
@@thebumpchannel Tractor Supply, LC is $17 for 64oz that you mix at .5oz per gallon... where Bifenthrin is $30 for 32oz that you mix with 1oz per gallon. I use both b/c they perform well in their own ways.
@@SlackerU You must be talking about this, which is the watered down "big box" version of the chemical. www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/summit-mosquito-gnat-64-oz-concentrate-031-6 Watered down 0.5% versus the standard 9.7% version of this www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/control-solutions-martins-cyonara-97-lambda-cyhalotrin-insecticide-8-oz

Thanks for sharing! Not every rain event. 4 to 6 weeks maybe.

Are you not using a sticker/spreader? Even a tsp of dawn soap will help.
Bifen does not call for one.

Is it safe to spray in grass?
It is but make to spray those shrubs. Thx for watching and I appreciate the comment!

There are no good-bugs around your home or animal runs. I spray & fog it & I still have bees.

@@thebumpchannel LC is half the price per bottle & it only requires .5 oz per gallon. It doesn't work well for termites or fleas though.
