About this product

A lawn and garden insecticide sold on being rainproof in 1 hour. For severe infestations the label says to repeat every 7 to 14 days, and people and pets may re-enter once the spray has dried. It also bars harvesting fruits or nuts from treated trees for a year.

Using this specific product

Bayer Advanced Complete Brand Insect Killer for Soil & Turf Concentrate is listed here as the Imidacloprid and beta-cyfluthrin concentrate version for lawn insects, garden pests, and shrubs. For treating a lawn or garden area, the useful question is not simply whether the surface looks finished—it is whether the exact next-action milestone shown above has been reached.

Before you start

  • Confirm the package says Imidacloprid and beta-cyfluthrin concentrate; related versions can use different timing.
  • For lawn insects, garden pests, and shrubs, pay particular attention to wind, dry foliage, application rate and forecast.
  • The source gives no conditions for this time.

How to check readiness

Use the rainfast claim only for rain; use the label separately for people and pet re-entry. Use this only as the rainfast milestone. It does not establish general cure or re-entry safety.

Avoid this mistake

Rainfast does not mean dry, harmless or ready for people and pets.
