The Best DIY Pest Control…🐜 

Fast cap is a pyrethroid like bifenthrin but also has a synergist. Stops the bugs immune response from acting which is why it's so affective against spiders and scorpions because they are naturally more resilient to toxins unlike most bugs. Now if it's cockroaches or bed bugs I would actually go with a neonicitinoid like alpine wsg because it is a different family of pesticides and those particular bugs aren't very used to it and it acts like a virus and is undetectable to them which for interior invaders is what you want bifen and other pyrethroids will make them scatter into corners you can't reach with the pesticide. Diatomaceous earth is good too but don't use it out in the open I like to use it in wall voids behind electrical junction/switch boxes or crawl spaces and unused attics. Remember these chemicals are toxins just mixed to levels that safe to be used around humans safely but still kill bugs just read your labels and follow best practices and instructions. Label is law literally.

I have been using Taurus for about 7 years. No pests so far. 3 feet out and 2 feet up. Around every window and doorway. I spray every 6 months. Might try FastCap though. Thanks for the 411

Thats a huge band for using Taurus. But who follows label nowdays anyway💁‍♂️😆

Never seen liquid bifethrin stain before but there is a first for everything I suppose. Some stuff I use like maxforce I have noticed can stain surfaces but never seen it with demand, bifen, temprid or suspend.

Only stains if it is over concentrated.

I can obviously tell you've never read the label considering you couldn't even spell the product name right.

California is worthless. It's 3 feet up and 3 feet out everywhere else

Bifen and Taurus, alpine wsg, one gaurd

California has rules to keep from killing anything

So what do you use if you are targeting spiders, ants, mosquitoes around the house?

@@Usinvesting8 ants you can use taurus, for mosquitos and spiders bifen works great

Read the lable it will tell you what the target pest are

@@Usinvesting8you can use demand for all 3

@texasgreenlawn3807 the label doesn't always mean that it effectively works against that pest. Bedbugs are on the talstar label and that's like the worst thing to use on them.

Will it kill your Pollinators?

@@pepe1o8 yes

Ya I haven't seen a label on any bifethrin product that allows for more than 1oz of concentrate per gallon so 1.5 is little much. Label is law but people will be people and do what they want. Then they wonder why pesticides build up in the environment. 🤦

I just purchased some and they told me to make it Hot by adding 4 1/2 to 2 Gals 😬

Yes it is, usually takes about 30 to an hour to dry depending on the weather

I just read that bifen works the same in bugs as it does in mammals and warm blooded creatures. the effect on humans and birds and stuff is negligible unless you drink a few ounces of the stuff. I have goats and young children and I’m looking into using this chemical to control flies and such

The instructions say to let it dry (1 hour) before you let pets come around it

😂

Not true

@@michaelmerck7576 well, depends where you live but I've been in pest control 35 years You can't be 100% but you can get up there without chemicals.

Lies

@@gary1558 then why did houses back in the day have documented NATURAL pest control?

Pests can enter the home in many different ways, they can be brought in unknowingly in boxes, luggage, or even on your clothes. So in such cases it may be necessary to treat inside.

Permethrin causes cats to have seizures

So?

If the mf got bugs I don’t blame em! What if you had bugs? What would you do? lol

Probably more of a neurotoxin.

​​@@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnowand at that not very much of a neurotoxin for people sense the pesticidal chemical in bifethrin only works on insects physiology. I remember and still sometimes use organophosphates and carbamates which do act on human as well as insects and have to be used sparingly for that reason also more ppe is required to be used when working with those chemicals. Hell if you want to really work with some crazy stuff I got this gopher killer that's made from a dervitave of cyanide. Ya I'm probably gonna get cancer in 40 years but at 30 years old who isn't going to have cancer by then.

Y u say that I’m in Mississippi

@@albertlewis8615 it’s junk, breaks down very fast in sunlight and hot temps. If you plan on applying it every 2-4 weeks it’ll work just fine but there’s way superior products out there

Garbage

Eating 300 calories a day works fine you’ll still live but you’ll be 1/10 as efficient as someone that eats 2,500 calories per day

No

😂😂😂😂😂😂

I mean he missed his eaves windows and doors and honestly you can do your whole lawn if you want but it's kind of up to you. Just make sure you don't spray in places you shouldn't spray that is more key in general pest. There is a line between too little and not being affective and too much and getting pesticide in places it shouldn't be. This video wasn't a bad example (except for the mixing rate which was a little over what the label allows) he just missed a few spots that I would have gotten.

Yeah it will work to a degree. He didn't do the inside which hopefully he also does and uses temprid or something that isn't bifenthrin. Not great for indoor pets

Yes it’s great

I assume you mean demand?

I mean he's a builder not an exteinator but the video isn't as bad as some I've seen.

He said “they changed the name” Bro theres 20 different manufacturers of Bifenthrin 7.9% FMC, Ensystex, Amvac, CS, the list goes on
