  We have 3 cats and 1 dog. Last year the fleas nearly made us all go crazy! I finally found Conquer and Archer on this web page (best prices) and finally..... FINALLY we got our lives back!!! It worked, was easy to put down, just make sure you follow instructions. About a week later.......no more fleas! It's once again time to put down in the yard. Thanks for a wonderful product that works!

  I used a Conquer and Archer mixture for my flea problem inside and in the yard and it knocked it out 1-2-3. I had used other foggers, sprays, powders and granules with no luck. Conquer and Archer did the trick.

    Problem Solved
  By Charles on October 15, 2010
  Verified Purchase

  My reason for buying this product was utter desperation. We have a small dog run for an even smalller dog,Over the last 2 years we hired 3 nationally know exterminator companies for the sole purpose of erradicating an infestation of ticks from that run. All failed . One application of the Conquer Insecticide ,following the clear and simple directions, has eliminated what seemed to be an un-solvable problem.

•   Fleas and ants
  By Matt on February 17, 2013
  Verified Purchase

  We noticed our 2 dogs were covered in fleas. After bathing them and flea treatment applied to their backs, the fleas were still there. Enough was enough, searched Do My Own Pest Control and found many positive reviews for Conquer to treat the interior, exterior, and lawn for fleas and other pests. I did combine Conquer with an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) Archer which was what a few people recommended when I sprayed. One treatment throughout the interior, exterior, and lawn and I am happy to report no more fleas or ants which were also giving me a problem. I would recommend Conquer for it's effectivness, versatility, and reasonable pricing.

    Conquer Liquid Insecticide & Ant Control
  By Bob on December 5, 2012
  Verified Purchase

  I am a "Do It Yourself" or at least, try to do it myself, pest control person. I had ants. I didn't take the time to figure out what kink of ants they were which I realize is an important part of controlling ants. I purchased and used Conquer Liquid Insecticide. Killed 'em dead on the spot and I haven't seen any ant trails or ants since. No odor. No damage/discoloration to anything I sprayed. Great stuff and very effective for my ants and I am sure a large variety of other pests.

    fleas b gone
  By Leslie on September 20, 2012

  I just want to say about two months ago up until recently I was going thru a living nite mare I have never encounter "fleas" before and I never want to ever again. My cat who's never been outside had somehow got fleas still not sure if one jump on me and my family and got in the house or maybe they jump thru my screen door due to cat lady next door constantly feeding the strays. Anyway I was at my wits end going to my local exterminator and local hardware store spending countless dollars trying to resolve this matter with no true resolution. Until one day my guardian angel lead me to this website, I read several reviews and after my second purchase not my first I decided to purchase the triple trio "suspend sc, martins IGR and conquer liquid insecticide, after following the directions I was hesitant to believe this products was truly gonna work nevertheless I was desparate ..let me say omg I truly saw a difference and I would recommend these three products to anyone who encounter this nitemare as I did ...Thanks Dmopc- u gave me my home back. No more fleas /:+)

  I treated a fairly large area resembling a miniature desert of cutter ant sand dunes with a 2 oz/gallon mix of Conquer. Over two weeks later and only one spray treatment, they're either dead or have gone deeper into the ground. So far, so good, I've told my neighbor about Conquer !!!

December 5, 2011 Alexander from Puerto Rico asked:

QHow effective is Conquer on ticks? Would Archer IGR be a good addition?
I have a tick infestation that I've been battling for months. I have two siberian huskies that I usually bring inside during the day and to sleep at night, sometimes in the bed. I've tried another department store product, Bayer Advance Complete Insect killer, and it's proven ineffective.

AConquer is labeled for ticks and should do a great job for you. The addition of Archer IGR will be necessary to help you get control of the tick population on your property. Do not make spot applications outdoors. Treat the entire area where exposure to ticks may occur. Use more water (not more product) when treating areas with dense ground cover or heavy leaf litter. Ticks may be reintroduced from surrounding areas on host animals. Indoors, thoroughly apply as a spot treatment to infested areas such as pet beds and resting quarters; nearby cracks and crevices; along and behind baseboards, window and door frames; and localized areas of floor and floor coverings where these pests may be present. Repeat treatments will be necessary to achieve and/or maintain control during periods of high pest pressure. All of your dogs should be treated with a product that is specifically labeled for use on dogs for tick control.

You can also help by creating a "tick safe zone" in your yard. You should have an area that is at least 9 ft wide between your yard and any wooded area. Trim back trees to allow as much sunlight as possible into your yard. Keep grass as short as possible. Remove as much leaf litter as possible. A clearly defined, well manicured border between your yard and any wooded areas or weedy lots will reduce the chance of ticks infesting your yard.

QWhat is the mixing ratio I need to conquer these fleas with Conquer?
Got rid of dog. Back yard is now infested with fleas. 40 to 50 fleas cover my jeans when I step out back. Terrible. What is the mixing ratio I need to conquer these with Conquer? I will no doubt buy the IGR as well. Can I mix them together? Thanks.

AMix 1 oz of Conquer with 1 gallon of water in a hand sprayer and apply at a rate of one gallon per 1000 square feet. (you may also add Archer IGR to 1 gallon of the finished Conquer/water solution for more effective flea control.  Archer is and igr made for outdoors and holds up better in the sunlight) Read product label for complete instructions and safety precautions before using the product.

QDoes Conquer kill bed bugs?

AConquer is not labeled for bedbugs and is not intended for use on bed bugs. There are many other products on the market that have been tested and labeled for bed bugs. Phantom is one of our most popular bed bug products as it is non-repellent and there is no known resistance to this product. You can check out the rest of our bed bug products by clicking on the Bed Bugs tab at the top of any page on our website.

January 19, 2012 Michael from Wilmington, Delaware asked:

QWhen treating for roaches, how far should bait (Max Force) be from insecticide (Conquer)?
I am particularly concerned about treating an apartment where the little kitchen is next to the larger living area. Will the bait be effective if the larger part of the apartment is repelling?

AThe Maxforce Roach Bait Gel should be applied by placing one small pea sized dot every 10-12 inches directly into cracks and crevices around counters, sinks, drawers and cabinets in kitchens and bathrooms. Conquer should be applied along baseboards, in cracks and crevices, under appliances, around door frames, window frames and in areas where utilities (cables, pipes, wires) enter into the structure. There is no set distance you need to keep the products but the general rule of thumb is to keep the baits up high around counters and inside cabinets and to keep the sprays down low near the floor area. Do not apply bait in the same exact spot where you sprayed the Conquer.

I would like to use this in a dog kennel with dirt floors, is it safe for the dogs to be in the area when the building is being sprayed?

ADogs must be removed from the area that is being sprayed. The dogs can return as soon as the area is dry (usually less than 1 hour).

October 29, 2011 Diane from Salisbury, Nc asked:

QWill the Conquer and Archer IGR together be safe for my outside cats, and can I spray upholstered furniture?
It's the fall here. When is the best time to spray? Before it rains? Will rain dilute solution? What can't you spray in the house? How many hours do you need the dogs to stay out of a room you have sprayed?

AAll animals need to be out of the area while you are doing the application and they can safely return after the treated area has dried. When spraying outdoors the area you are treating should be dry at the time of the application and for 24 hours after the application. After 24 hours the products will be rain safe. Conquer and Archer IGR are both labeled to be sprayed indoors but are not labeled for use on upholstered furniture. On upholstered furniture you could use a product that is labeled for this type of application such as Ultracide. Most infestations require a second treatment and severe infestation may even require a third treatment. Treatments should be applied at two week intervals. Infested areas indoors should be thoroughly vacuumed prior to product applications to help remove as much flea eggs, larvae and debris as possible, and also to help stimulate larvae to change stages and come into contact with the product. You should continue to vacuum at least every other day for the next two weeks. Pets should be treated for fleas as well as the areas they spend a lot of time such as pet bed, kennels, carriers, couches, and moist shady areas where they spend time outside.

September 22, 2011 Tara from Clayton Nc asked:

QCan I add Martin's IGR to Conquer? What will the indoor/outdoor mix ratio be in the one gallon sprayer?
I need to kill the fleas indoors and outdoors. Can I buy the 1 oz. bottle and mix that in with the Conquer? I have a 1500 sq. foot home and a 1/4 acre yard.

AYou can add Martins IGR to Conquer for flea control. You can mix 1 ounce of each product into one gallon of water to treat 1,000 sq ft area. When treating outdoors you can increase the volume of water to insure even coverage in areas with dense vegetation (i.e., use 2-5 gallons of water with the 1 oz of each product).

QCan Archer/Conquer be sprayed on our/children bedding? Should we leave the house after we spray?
How dangerous is it for us to ingest or walk through the areas that have been sprayed?

AArcher and Conquer should not be sprayed on bedding. Simply washing and drying the bedding on high heat will kill fleas and flea eggs. The combination of Archer and Conquer is safe when used as directed on the product labels and the products have had time to dry before you contact treated areas.

September 1, 2011 Alan from Austin, Tx asked:

QDoes Conquer kill leaf cutter ants?
I live in the central tx area and have a problem with leaf cutter ants. I have multiple ant mounds in approx 40x40 area (nest area). I also have ant foraging holes in many areas. I've tried Amdro Ant Block and Ortho Bug B Gone. They don't work well. A web site recommended a residual insecticide like Conquer (www.antcontrols.com). Does Conquer kill leaf cutter ants? Will it kill the queen(s)? Is there anything better to kill the ant?

AConquer will kill ants that make direct contact with treated areas. Leaf cutter ants can be a difficult pest to get rid of. The colonies are large and the ants make their own food so poison baits only have limited effects on this species of ants. According to several university websites Maxforce Complete Granules containing hydramethlynon are some what effective, though they will usually eliminate only about 30% of a large colony in one treatment and will need to be reapplied several times.  Deltagard granules is one of the only products actually labeled for leaf cutter ants. The product label recommends treating the mound directly and lightly watering the granules in. Again it may take several treatments to get the desired results. We also recommend contacting your local cooperative extension office to see if they have any recommendations for products that have worked for other people in your region.

QMosquito control for a large lawn
We have huge concentration of mosquitoes this year. We are in the country (Northern Minnesota) with a 3 to 5 acre mowed area. Is Conquer appropriate? How many oz. of Conquer per acre? I have a powered sprayer towed behind a lawn tractor.

AConquer is not labeled to be used for mosquitoes outdoors. Talstar is our most popular selling product for mosquito control.  It is a liquid concentrate that you mix with water and apply using a sprayer.  You will need about 1 oz of product for every 1,000 sq ft of space you need to treat. The key is to apply it to all shrubs, trees, and other foliage around the house or patio where you are trying to provide relief.  It should be directed not only on top of the leaves and plants, but on the underside of the leaves as well which is where the mosquitoes hang out.  Talstar should be applied every 30 days for optimum control.
