re: Termite - Insecticide

Posted by Bugman05 on 7/21/20 at 3:33 pm
My company treats with Termidor, we have several hundred houses and quite a few major apartment complexes under warranty and have never had any issues. We also have a 300 gallon tank, trench outside perimeter, crawl space perimeter as well as drilling the bricks. ...

re: White maggots in tomatoes

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/25/20 at 7:03 pm
When you say it's too late, nothing can do will save it? I do commercial/residential pest control and have access to every chemical on the market right now. If I should go hit it with bifenthrin, I can do that right now. ...

White maggots in tomatoes

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/25/20 at 5:52 pm
The past week I've had several tomatoes I thought had BER, today I saw another discolored one with a soft brown spot on the bottom, cut it open and there were several white maggots inside. Chunked it back off in the woods so no pics, but does anyone have any ideas or treatment plans? I always coat w...

re: Red aphids on tomatoes

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/14/20 at 12:34 pm
Solid points. I guess its just the mental aspect of it for me, although it does make sense. I may try it, I have fire ants around my tomatoes but I am going to feel so weird spraying around my tomatoes as it would get me fired in a heartbeat if I did it at work lol. ...

re: Red aphids on tomatoes

I work pest control/termite and I'll pass on permethrin on anything edible. It will definitely work, but after years of getting it on my skin from spraying and knowing what that feels like, along with the various label restrictions preventing us from spraying on fruiting plants, I ain't doing that l...
or Run At 50 MPH? by boomtown143 Fly. I'd make a superhero outfit and....save cats out of the tree?? yeah, I dunno. Flying at 15 miles and hour would get boring. I'll go with running 50 mph. I'd go pro in every sport possible...olympics..all over the wheaties boxes....MILLIONS! You won...
My main question is how do I fly between a hover and 15mph? Just stretch my arms out more? Is a superman one arm at waist and the other fully extended half speed? Also is the 50mph running lifetime? You could be a career punt returner as no angles the coverage team takes would matter. The jet sweep ...

Neem oil mixed full strength plus a touch knocked out maybe 1/2 of them. Gonna sprinkle with sevindust tonight and just wash everything off well. Great grandpa taught me to do that when I was little and lived til 94 so screw it. I'll post health recommendations on here in a few decades if I get sick...

re: 13-13-13

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/7/20 at 2:03 pm
I used triple 13 on everything but tomatoes and peppers, I used 3-6-4 on 1/2 and jobes tomato spikes which are 6-18-6 on the other 1/2. The spiked veggies are at minimum twice as big and have 3-4 times the fruit as of now. First year using spikes and I'm keeping meticulous notes so come august/Septe...

Side note, okra on next row is clean. Squash, zucchini and beans on next 7 rows are fine. On the left side, squash peas and 1st row of tomatoes are good. It's only on my middle row. 1st row of tomatoes fertilized with 3-6-4, middle row where damage is was fertilized with jobes tomato spikes and are...

Red aphids on tomatoes

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/7/20 at 1:55 pm
I know the irony of bugman asking a question about this, but I do residential/commercial not garden. Got 13 tomato plants, yesterday I didn't check, today I go out and red aphids are wrecking my tomatoes and peppers. All of them have already set fruit so I don't feel comfortable with 7dust. What are...

re: Roach Problem

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/2/20 at 9:33 am
If in dishwasher don't spray in there, take 1/4-1/2 cup of bleach and with no dishes run a hot cycle. Spray cracks around dishwasher and also get down and check lips under cabinets as they will find everywhere you are not spraying. Babies will travel 3-6 feet from nest. Adults much farther. Look int...

re: Fleas on yard

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/1/20 at 6:57 pm
It all depends on how big the yard is and how much junk (pool, patio furniture, garden area) is in it. We've got a 200 gallon tank we can load up and I've got the pace down for carrying the hose, I would have to check the label to get the exact measurements though. ...

re: Bug prevention help

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/1/20 at 12:21 pm
We spray Talstar quite often in our houses, great on ants, wood roaches, mosquitos centipedes and quite a few others. If I'm not mistaken it is micro encapsulated so I would not recommend hitting a wasp nest with it as it doesn't have the initial knockdown a permethrin or Cy-permethrin would. ...

re: Fleas on yard

Posted by Bugman05 on 6/1/20 at 12:19 pm
When my company sprays yards for fleas we do a mixture of Talstar and an IGR called nygaurd. That IGR helps a ton, we also put out 30 gallons plus depending on the yard, just follow the label for tank mixing. If it's real bad we mix in some Exciter as well, which is a knockdown chemical that only ha...

re: OT 82nd guys where you at

I agree. I failed on a nomenclature mixup,everything would've worked fine but school house nomenclature is 16 points. I've learned to live with that. It was my 2nd of those taps, I deserved both. Couldn't correctly identify Russian projectiles, I absolutely hate it. Wasn't my path, I was a OT poste...
