For the best Stink Bug Treatment, perform a thorough Inspection prior to treatment, and practice good sanitation and exclusion to prevent these pests from entering the home. Treatments should begin in August before temperatures begin to drop and continue through November or until the first frost. A one-gallon hand pump sprayer (sold separately) is required to apply the Temprid FX in this kit. We recommend a hand pump sprayer like the Chapin one-gallon sprayer or the Chapin Premier one-gallon sprayer.

The Stink Bug Control Kit contains the insecticides needed to help keep stink bugs and similar overwintering pests out in the Fall. It is important to perform a thorough inspection of the structures you want to protect so that you can identify and correct any areas where stink bugs are able to harbor and possibly enter the structure. These preventative measures will greatly increase your chances of a successful Stink Bug Treatment.
How to Apply the Stink Bug Kit
Stink Bug Treatment should begin before temperatures drop and pests start searching for places to harbor for the winter. Relying on treatments in the Spring, when pests are moving back outdoors, will provide limited results. Your first treatment should be in August before the weather begins to cool, and continue through November or until the first frost of the Fall. The best treatment for overwintering pests is preventative treatment.
STEP 1 - SPRAY - Temprid FX
Temprid FX is a liquid concentrate that must be diluted with water and applied with a hand pump sprayer. Temprid FX has two active ingredients that provide both quick knockdown and residual control to help prevent stink bugs and similar pests from entering the structure.*Always wear gloves such as Nitrile Chemical Resistant gloves when handling and mixing pesticides.
*To mix the Temprid FX, fill sprayer tank 1/3 - 1/2 with clean, temperate water. Shake Temprid FX before opening, then add the desired amount of Temprid FX to the sprayer tank. Shake or agitate the mixture before adding the remainder of the water, then agitate again before spraying.
*For initial treatment, use 16 mL (2 x 8 mL bottles) per gallon of water.
*For follow-up treatments, use 8 mL (1 x 8 mL bottle) per gallon of water.
*Temprid FX should be sprayed around the outside of the home to create a protective barrier to keep bugs from getting inside. Spray about 3 ft. up the side of the house, and about 3-5 ft. out from the structure from the base of the foundation (spraying directly on the ground) -- this will give you a powerful continuous barrier against pests.*Spray around window frames, door frames, any cracks and crevices around foundation or where caulking around windows and doors has opened up, around vents leading inside, and around lights (these bugs are attracted to the light from windows, doors, etc.).
*Concentrate spot treatments on the sides of the home that receive afternoon and/or full sunlight.
*Spot treat indoors along window frames, door frames, garage doors, attic vents, and where utilities enter.
*Keep pets and children out of the treatment area while spraying and until the application has dried, usually about an hour.
*Try to use up all the spray mixture in one application. Mixed solutions should not be stored any longer than 24 hours.
*Do not apply Temprid FX to edible plants such as vegetable gardens or fruit trees.
*Repeat treatment every 30 days through the Fall or until the first frost.
STEP 2 - DUST - EcoVia WD and Bellow Hand Duster
For the best control of stink bugs and similar pests, apply EcoVia WD both indoors and in cracks and crevices outdoors. EcoVia WD is all-natural and contains no active ingredients that degrade in sunlight or over time. Using the included Bellow Hand Duster ensures accurate applications into areas where dust will not be easily moved or washed away by rainfall.
*After your insecticide spray has dried, you can apply the insecticide dust.
*Using insecticide dust can be very messy, so be sure to wear gloves and consider having a damp paper towel handy to clean up excess dust indoors.
*To fill the Bellow Hand Duster, remove the black rubber stopper on top of the duster. Gently unscrew the white top of the EcoVia WD dust, then slowly tap the dust into the duster. Fill the duster up to halfway (or less), so there is plenty of room for the dust to move inside the duster. Adding a couple of small objects such as coins, pebbles, or marbles into the container with the dust will help break up any clumps that may be in the duster to allow for easier application.
*Replace the black stopper so that it fits snugly into the opening. Remove the black rubber cap from the end of the extension wand. To apply dust, hold the duster upside down, so that the extension wand is on top, then gently squeeze the bellows between the thumb and fingers.
*Apply insecticide dust to cracks and crevices such as:
around window and door frames
*Dust can also be used indoors in cracks and crevices where the dust will not easily be removed or disturbed, such as behind outlet covers, under baseboards, around pipe collars, and under and behind cabinets.
*Re-apply insecticide dust every 6 months.
*See our Video for more tips on dusting.
