Hi everyone. I am a graduate student at NC State University studying urban entomology. I am working on creating an extension training manual for pesticide retailers at "big box" and local hardware stores that sell pesticide products.

Part of this manual is to have an FAQ section that customers often ask retailers. I wanted to get an idea of what kind of questions people who buy products to control garden, home, and/or nuisance pests (This is not for disease control, just general insect control); may have about controlling pests in and around the home, the products that do control the pests, or any other general inquiries.

Some examples of products used for control are Ortho, CombatMax, Zevo, or any of those big name products.

​

Please let me know if I can clarify anything! Thanks for your participation!

Any other fellow pest control techs live in California ? I recently switched company’s and have noticed new chemical. What do you guys use for general pest

hidden hills have theese in low amounts. cause for concern?

Greetings,

Currently, we are revising our paper on Calamansi and Bitter Gourd as Pesticide against Rice Black Bugs and our panelists have told us to find the LC50 or LD50 but we have no idea what to use and we have limited RRL based on Google Scholar. Our conditions does not fit the need to calculate LC50 or LD50, because we do not have the weight of the extracts used as they are both liquid, we do not have concentration as we used pure extracts or does the ratio of 50:50 count? We need to contact a specialist or expert on this to be considered valid or if you can suggest a journal that would be good thank you. We do not have any idea as we are only Grade 12 students, please comment if you can help or if you know suggestions on what to do.

i remember it coming in a plastic bag, and it was blue crystals. my pica ridden ass would eat it like candy.

Hey all - my housing has been really weird the last few months, and I ended up living in a rented RV with bugs ( I'm in grad school in California poorly attempting to save money). I moved out and my new roommate made me use a bug spray fogger on everything because he saw that there were some bugs in the RV. I used that fogger on all of my stuff, within the usual truck, washed my sheets, and hoped my mattress would be safe to sleep on. Well it's been a month, and apparently the food which I took out of the truck with the fogger going off had some eggs on it, and those eggs became a type of fly which appeared in my stuff in the pantry yesterday. I do feel horrible, and I bought the bug spray he asked me to, which was Raid Flying Insects. He sprayed it and said that any sealed food should be fine to eat. I am anxious that the pesticide being on the package of sealed food might affect me and poison me. If I do the safest thing and throw everything out of the kitchen, then I lost a few hundred dollars of food. I am throwing out anything that's been opened and resealed for sure, but what about a completely unopened bag of coffee, or a closed glass container for spices? How do I know what is safe here? What would you do?

UPDATE: After a couple days, someone suggested I call Poison Control Center and they were able to help me, listen to what was sprayed, and gave me reassurance that sealed items are in fact ok. If you have a similar question call poison control center

I submitted my DPR QAL application today and plan to begin studying next week, having ordered books.

• laws, regulations, and basic principles.

-(A)residential, industrial, and institutional.

Could anyone provide an overview of the exam? I'm curious about the format — is it multiple-choice? What's the passing score? Is it considered difficult? Also, are there any practice exams available?

I would greatly value any feedback. Thank you!

Can you please recommend a selective pesticide which would help me take care of these plants while not turning my grass into WWII battlefield? Thank you!

I started working at this pest control company and at first I was doing exclusion then after a few weeks they had me using termiticide and using pesticide supervised, then after a few more weeks where sending me out alone to go do general pest control with pesticides unsupervised, should I report them or will I get in trouble too, they make All their new guys that don’t have any license use pesticides

So I have a bottle containing 250 g/l Permethrin - 20 g/l Esbiothrin - 150 g/l Piperonyl Butoxide Dosis. The label is shot but I did write on the bottle was was in it and a dose. I remember using it inside once however, I am unsure it is safe or allowed for outside use. I know Permethrin can be used outside but I find little info on especially Esbiothrin. Did find this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioallethrin

Can anyone tell me whether I can use this for tick control? I already applied nematodes to attack the larvae but will likely have to follow up with a pesticide to kill the adult ticks.

I found this blue device on this register in my new house? I want to touch it. Is this rat poision?

I read orange skin infusions are good because of vitamin C. And actually orange skin has more vitamin C that the orange fruit. But not sure if the skin contains pesticides that you cannot remove by simply washing with water. What ya think on this?

Anything specific y’all use to keep gravel paths weed-free?
