- This video shows some products you can pick up from your big box store or online to treat mosquitos and other insects in the lawn. Click the link below for bifenthrin or the complete insect killer.
Mosquitos love a thick lush lawn, especially when it is watered or getting lots of rain. Don't let mosquitos or other insects get in the way of enjoying the outdoors, especially not your lawn!
The hose end complete insect killer is a great product and very simple to use.
The bifen I/t requires some more work with the measuring and mixing, but will provide that quick knockdown if you need to kill mosquitos fast.

Another option is the Bioadvanced Complete Insect Control granular. $12 for a 10# bag; 10K sq ft for surface bugs, 5K sq ft for soil bugs including white grubs. 3 month coverage they claim. I just put it down today, and within hours we got 3 inches of rain. YES!

Thank you Sir Awesome !
Great tip thanks
Ending had my laughing so hard, haha.
Good stuff...get em!
Thanks
Great Video, Thank You, the only thing I would do different is I would start from the edges of the property and apply walking backwards so I'm not walking through the pesticide.
You can do that, no worries
Buen video gracias 👍👍
Bifen XTS is great for the beetles that like to kill your roses in the summer too👍
Bifenthrin is a Class C carcinogen. Both of these products will kill any insect they come in contact with...even beneficial insects like ladybugs, honeybees, butterflies, caterpillars etc.
Great video and the music was too lit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Stay tuned in, those beats are going to keep coming 😏
Nice video! Man your subscribers blew up!
I know man. Crazy
Sweet vid!! How do you deal with Ground Pearls???
What’s the beat that you used ? I like that
Nice yard btw 🤘
The and is so funny take care the family always 👍
That ending tho!!
daaaaaaannngg
I use started with suspend sc. a few years back and the added Biden IT and spray about two weeks apart only every two months. No ants, bees, well just about everything. Use a surfactant as well (I do just for good measure as I have it on hand for my tenacity). Have not have a tick on my dogs in 4 years. Tip. Wear PPP and LONG SLEEVS. Twist nozzle up to hit bottom of leaves on bushes in darker areas.
How much long should you soak an area? Is it just a quick pass?
Stay safe everyone!!
Do you see any effect on fireflies? If you had fireflies before, do you notice fewer (or none) since spraying/treatment? I have a mosquito problem (mostly aedes albopictus aka Asian tiger mosquito). I've tried some traps with minimal success and I'm considering Bifen I/T or Mosquito Barrier. One of my favorite things about summer is a warm June night, watching the magic of fireflies lighting up my back yard. If either spray I'm considering would eliminate or significantly reduce or repel fireflies, I would prefer to apply a mosquito repellent to my clothing.
Hey, I bought bifen i/t and cutter.... I have a deck in backyard... do you recommend spraying deck down too for mosquito control or only grass areas and bushes/ shrubs? Also do you recommend mixing cutter with the bifen in my chemical sprayer or only use bifen alone in the sprayer at its recommended dose?
Thankyou
Hi, I sprayed my yard and house all over with bifen.... I sprayed the patio light right outside my door..... so far so good with mosquitos and keeping bugs out, but tonight, 6 days after spraying (no rain for 48 hours after I sprayed) when I was out at night with patio light on, the flies were BAD right at the light... swarming the light.... I sprayed the light and surrounding part of the house by the light... this was the 1st time since I sprayed that I went outside with patio light on..... will the flies that kept hitting the light eventually die off from the residual of the bifen it (7.9%) or is bifen just not effective for flies that are attracted to the light?
Can we spray over shrubs and flowered areas?
Hi! Wanted to ask, do we only apply this in the summer? How about spring or fall? do we need to apply these products too? Thanks!
Can you use this on your patio area?
Whats to keep mosquitos from just flying over your lawn and biting you anyway?
So I was planning on reseeding, aerating for a full lawn but I noticed I had a lot of lawn gnats. Should I treat it first or can I still do both?
I was watching something..an as far as ants they were talking about boiling water an useing dawn because with dawn it makes them suffocate an die
But the stuff you meantion is good too
Great Video! Thanks for the information. Guess it's time I start spraying. Hope your daughter is all good!
She toughed it out haha
What exactly is the difference between the I/T and XTS?
I see you have a dog in the video. Are these two products pet-friendly? And if so, should I wait the standard 48 hours before my dog can walk on the grass? Thank you!
lol too funny the swings and kids
Does this kill Asian Tiger Mosquitoes ?
If it rains should I hit the lawn up again?
Omg are you okay? Ok please don’t tell mommy I’ll get you ice cream.
Lol glad she’s okay
Lmao 🤣 But your reaction to her falling though...you were like “OH LORD Noooo” lol now y’all totally laugh about this of course
quick questions - how long do you wait before being able to have your dogs/family play in the grass? thank you
Once it dries you are fine
Are these safe for dogs and chickens?
Bifen XTS is approx.. 4 times stronger than the I T thereby requiring less product more bang for the buck, I have been using it for several years now, spraying my yard for fire ants with boom sprayer once in the spring and again mid summer. I recently had an in ground irragation system installed, the installer stated to me this was his first experience installing an in ground system this time of year whereby he didnt see any grub worms anywhere in my yard, now can I credit the xts for this and is this a good thing, but it simply works on any bug it comes in contact with lights out hands down best product I've ever used for total insect control....
Bifenthrin (active ingredient in Talstar) is a Class C carcinogen.
I just noticed I have a spider issue in my backyard (we may also have a drainage issue as there are wet spots here and there). I just sprayed my entire back yard using an attachment hooked up to a hose with Bifen XTS. How often should I spray using Bifen XTS and will this kill any spiders in the ground?
@@DRTOLLZ Adam I have noticed that the Bifen Xts will control insects that are in the ground. The depth I'm not completely sure but fire ant mounds a fairly deep and they control them. I sprayed my yard this past spring but we have had a considerable amount of rain this year and I've noticed the fire ants are returning, under normal conditions XTS normally controls insects for 3 to 4 months again based on rainfall. I've seen years where I only had to apply once in the spring march or April and at times I would have to reapply again in July, its based on amount of rainfall in your area, just so you know Bifen comes in a granular form as well and u can get it from Domyown.com I tried it this year with good results also. Hope this helps....
How about putting bifen it into the complete blue bottle to use as a spreader?
🤷🏻♂️
Darn. I still have a jug of talstar p. I know what to get next time though! Thanks!
Is talstar used for interior though? Or can be used for interior where as Bifen can't?
Not sure about bifen indoors but you can use talstar p for indoors and out.
Nice work!! Your daughter is a lot like mine, takes a tumble and then wants to get thrown in the air. 😂
Luckily shes tough haha. How old is yours?
The Lawn Whisperer I have a 4 year old! You?
@@donslawns1 mine is 4 as well. Well plus the now 6 week old 😬
The Lawn Whisperer awesome! I bet they keep you guys busy!!
I don't use chemicals period. I put a bar of Irish spring soap in all standing water and spray blue dawn dishsoap and water in my sprayer and I have woords on both sides of me and I got nothing but dead bugs lol
Should the Bifen be watered in or left on the grass dry? Lawn and beds look killer.
Foliar so you want it to dry on the blades. That way when the insects come into contact with it or munch on the blades of grass, that's when it will begin the killing process
Can you use the bifen in a hose end lawn sprayer that lets you adjust the levels?
Of course...
Good vid. That is a crane fly you stomped on, not a big mosquito. They don't bite. They don't even have mouths. I know he knows, but for other viewers. Most people go years thinking they are big mosquitos.
Spray and pray👍
Do you have to water in the bifen it after the spray application?
No, do not water in! 👍
quick observation.. the insect that you stomped is a crane fly/mosquito hawk.. harmless to humans..However they do not eat mosquitoes.. The day that mosquitos get that big we are all in trouble 😮
This kills lawn gnats?
For the BIFEN product, how many ounces would I mix with 2 gallons of water? My sprayer is a 2-gallon Scott’s sprayer. Thanks!
Depends the area you're covering
So would you mix 0.5 oz with 1 gallon to cover about 1500 sq ft?
Do you have any tips for grubs and moles? I used grubex in May and was good until a couple weeks ago. Moles everywhere!!
I like the scissor traps for the moles or the gopher hawk
Put gummy worms or gummy bears at every hole. Poof they disappear
You don't need to watern in Bifen correct?
Correct. Let it dry on the blades of grass
What type of grass is your lawn?
Tall fescue
How long after applying before it’s safe for the kids to play?
Once it dries you're good to go!
Bifenthrin is a Class C carcinogen. Both of these products will kill any insect they come in contact with...even beneficial insects like ladybugs, honeybees, butterflies, caterpillars etc.
No mercy in his dojo.
That synthetic use premethrin
With the BIFEN, how long should you wait before allowing pets and children back on the lawn after applying?
And you mentioned spraying when they’re active (mosquitos). I’ve also heard it’s good to spray when they’re hiding mid-day under leaves and in bushes? Which is better? Most effective?
Just seems if you’re spraying when they’re active and flying around, you wouldn’t kill them under leaves and in bushes, since they’re not there then? Thoughts?
According to Lawn Whisperer, once it dries, you should be fine to allow pets and children.
Gotta spray while walking backwards, brother
Have dedicated shoes/boots and wear pants. Remove pants after spraying and throw in the washer after spraying and all good
Does it get washed off during rain?
Yes. And it's highly toxic and lethal to aquatic life.
Great video! When applying for mosquitos do you spray the whole lawn along with surrounding trees and shrubs?
I do. Keep those suckers out!
The Lawn Whisperer good results? How is it around delicate flowers? I have a small lawn care company in Chicago doing fert and weed control. I want to add insects and mosquito treatments. Watching your video made me a little more at ease.
@@TheMikeyp87 the bifenthrin should be just find around flowers, but you dont want to spray it on anything that will be sold for crop (according to label) like an apple tree for example
Bifenthrin is a Class C carcinogen. Both of these products will kill any insect they come in contact with...even beneficial insects like ladybugs, honeybees, butterflies, caterpillars etc.

I’m throwing a kids party on Sunday it is safe if I spray the blue one Friday?
Yeah go ahead and spray! Safe to walk on once it dries after application!
Thank you so much for your help!!

@@katecats4 ok Karen
@@TheLawnWhisperer The EPA cites that "cancer is the second leading cause of death among children ages 1-14 years of age..." and that "A number of studies suggest that environmental contaminants, including radiation, secondhand smoke, PESTICIDES AND SOLVENTS, may play a role in the development of childhood cancers." www.epa.gov/children/childrens-environmental-health-facts Why would you ever want to risk the health of your child for a green lawn??
Any danger to pets?
New to the channel and I would suggest not making the clips with only music 10x louder than when your talking. Have to keep adjusting volume
Still a work in progress but I always make the music clips at 50% and the clips I'm talking at 200%.. guess that doesnt help
@@TheLawnWhisperer it's all good homie
Blueberries, blueberries 😅😅❤
Don't see termites on label 🤔
On the bifen I/T? Did you read the whole label?
Talstar!!!!!! 😎👍🏼 #GoBifen
Bifenthrin (active ingredient in Talstar) is a Class C carcinogen.
Are these dog safe !?
I bought Talstar P for St Augustine lawn to fight bugs, is this the best product?
It's Jaws for mosquitos
Go Hoosiers!
Humming birds eat mosquitos. Try a humming bird feeder. Its just sugar water
How safe is this if there are dogs and cats in the yard?
Apply it, let it dry, then they can reenter the area!
I'm assuming this stuff isn't toxic?
Apply it, let it dry, then you or any pets are ok to re enter area
Bifenthrin (also the active ingredient in Talstar) is a Class C carcinogen.
Baking soda keeps grubs at Bay .
I thought this was supposed to be an informative video. The action scene at the end kinda through me off. LOL... Tough kid.
should we wear masks applying this products, or no worries?
You can if you want but probably not necessary
Pet safe? My cat loves eating grass for some reason
Shop local~ go to your feed store
You’re more than welcome to👍
... and every nearby nesting bird
Bright side UA-cam channel reports 15 natural ways to get rid of mosquitos.
Nice!
Did you get any results after applying either treatments? Also, do me a favor and remind me not to let you push my kids!! ....... just kidding, non of us like when our kids do a header into the dirt while hog tied!!
Yeah I like using bifenthrin. Filming another video today using the same stuff
The Lawn Whisperer I’ll watch ..... and I’m sure I’ll offer a comment or two .......
Those edges got me all hot and bothered
So crafty
Probably shouldn’t have been spraying when the neighbors dog was out
How dare u kill the mosquito hawk 🥺
Gotta love how this guy uses no PPE. No spray boots, no mask, highly toxic to bees bifenthrin is too. Safer to use cedar oil if your going to be reckless with no ppe. Most people in the lawn Care industry don't seem to give a damn about protecting themselves or the environment as long as they just get those pesky bugs and weeds out of their hair. Such first world problems I guess.
*their
@@TheLawnWhisperer Lmao ok grammar Nazi, I'm typing on my phone, not typing a resume..
Guess you know I'm right 😉
@@animalslover99 he was wearing gloves at least
Didn't find ending funny and I'm glad she's ok.
Soft
He made sure she was ok and gave her a loving hug. I have 4 Kids they are going to fall and get bumps and bruises it happens....
it’s better than wrapping them in bubble wrap.
It looks artificial so perfect it is...and you have a LOT of grass. I wonder how much of chemicals are introduced in the atmosphere and how toxic can it be along the way to you, family, and pets... I wonder why are you all so crazy about lawns... humans cannot eat it and neither animals with so many chemicals, some man don't even spend quality time with their families as much as they do with the grass. so WHY????? Why don't you plant low high trees for shade, or fruit trees, beautiful bushes and flowers...
I spend plenty of time with my family. I do have good looking bushes and flowers. I have no room for fruit trees or shade trees. Hard to enjoy family time outside with mosquitos and ticks
What a waste of time, anyone can read a label and figure this out. Besides who wants to learn how you poisoned your property?
Your camera :creativity in the first 20 seconds is nauseating. Please STOP.
It was different after the first 20 seconds, right? So I did STOP...
