Guide: Mite Spray
Instructions for using Premo Guard Mite Spray
In general, you are going to want to follow these instructions:- Shake the bottle well before each use to mix the product ingredients. It's best to also shake the bottle often to keep the ingredients mixed.
- When you spray an area, use a misting spray, not a saturation spray. A mist is going to cover the area better, which has a higher kill rate on adults, larva and eggs.
- Spray everywhere. Premo Guard is safe to use on most surfaces, with a few exceptions. Don't spray directly on people or pets, or on food surfaces. Don't mix Premo Guard with other products. If you are using other pest products, read both labels, and do not spray Premo until the other product has been cleaned off.
Prioritize the following places for best results (but spray everything)
Treat Bedding
Disassemble bed, and thoroughly vacuum all six sides of box springs, mattress and bed components, Vacuum furniture, carpets and floors. Spray all sides of the bed frame and headboard, all edges and seams of the mattress and box spring, any edge, corner joint, creases, nooks and crannies with Premo Guard. Enclose mattress and box springs in encasements to prevent bed bug entry and exit. Do not remove encasements.
Treat Surrounding Areas
Thoroughly spray the surrounding area including nightstands, chairs and sofas, curtains, baseboards, crown moldings, carpet edges, all cracks and crevices. Premo can be sprayed almost everywhere, except on food surfaces, people and pets.
