I'm trying to kill ticks outside near the home. The label said not for lawn application so if I sprayed around the perimeter of the house, after it dries and it gets wet again, is it safe for the children to be around?
Transport Mikron Insecticide should not be applied to lawns/turf per the product label instructions. You can apply as a perimeter treatment to cracks and crevices and other listed areas for insect control around the home. If applied and dried to the appropriate areas, it will be safe for children to return. They should remain out of the areas during application and while surfaces are still wet. Rainfall will not reactivate those crevices. The product application will remain safely during the residual time. For more information on eradicating ticks, please take a few moments to review our treatment article on How to Get Rid of Ticks. We recommend the Outdoor Flea/Tick Kit for treatment.
