Should be fine if it's just those two in the tank. I'd keep the tank out of direct sunlight. Labels will typically state if a product must be used in 24 hours after it's been mixed. Nothing about that on the tekko label.

Thanks Derek.

I've had it parked in the shop the last couple of days. The new pump came in today, so I bolted it up and sprayed this evening. Got the expected reaction for the bugs...time will tell if it helps keep the fleas beat back. It's only the second time I have tried a IGR outdoors.

Tekko is legit. I did Tekko and Bifen last Friday. I like it as a blanket yard spray. I do Tekko and rotate Demand CS and Suspend Poly as a perimeter control.

I'm keeping up an aggressive attack going for the rest of the month. Sprayed carpets, tile, and the furniture, the set off bug bombs with a IGR over the weekend, plus washing everything that fit in the washer\dryer. This is the worst flea infestation I have ever had.

Trying to get the neighbors on all sides to get with a coordinated plan.

Washing the dogs every 3 - 5 days and I'll probably set off another batch of bug bombs in the house this weekend.

I'm thinking this is largely attributed to squirrels. We are overrun with them this year. I've counted 7 in view at one time. True number may be higher. I got some subsonic 22LRs and will work on that flea vector tomorrow, while my wife is at work. elmer

Not dialed in yet. The hotter the better on my bermuda. The lighter spots is common and the seed head mixed in 419. Drives me crazy. And where the wife drives into the driveway on the lawn.

Mr Derek can you name this weed kind sir? I’m sure it’s common but I’ve never seen it before and it has be stumped and pissed, it’s coming up where they trenched the yard for the irrigation system and obviously what I’ve put out didn’t phase it. [Linked Image]

This. If not Roadside it for sure looks to be in the Aster family. What did you put on it? This time of year MSM and Celsius is your best friend.

I’ve thrown everything including the kitchen sink at it and it simply gets grumpy looking and comes back with vengeance a few days later. MSM and Celsius just seem to piss it off roflmao

Interesting. Wouldn't be Aster then. Even my google image search came up with Aster. What all have you used? Pretty rare that a MSM/Celsius combo wouldn't kill something.

That’s every weed in my yard. I spray 1/4 gallon of weed killer on 1 plant, 3 days later it’s doubled in size with a smile on its face realmad

I’m resorting to fire flame

I've got Dallisgrass bad this year. Last week I mowed and dug up probably 20 of them and thought I had gotten them all, boy was I wrong they came back with vengeance this week. Looks to be the same amount of them after they grew up some. Now I have ugly tall weeds and 20 or so pock marks all over the yard where I dug the others out. I'm almost to the point of killing the whole side of the yard and starting over with new turf. Is there anything you can spray on these things to kill them dead?

This yard’s Tif419 and had Gallery put down twice, Prodiamine, MSM 60 and Celsius and I spot checked 2-4-D with little effect. It turns a light yellow and evidently drinks a beer and says screw you I’m back. First weed I’ve encountered MSM or C wouldn’t wipe out.

Derek might have a better solution but MSM 60 has always wiped it out for me, just be careful around Oak tree’s and Japanese Maples. I knew about oaks but it cost me about $$4,000 in maples last year hammer

This is a small residential front yard, no trees on this side and only one tree on the other side. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if that tree died either LOL.

Do I need MSM or MSMA? Everything I'm reading says MSM doesn't work on Dallisgrass where MSMA does. Lol all these chemicals are confusing.

It's MSMA. And it will kill your St Aug too. So that's not an option. Roundup is your best option. 41% Gly. Lots of ways to apply it. Wicker or bingo dauber it. You can also use a paint brush and paint it on Bob Ross style. You'll have some bad looking spots but it will fill in quickly. That's your least damage options and it will be minimal.
