    Q How long does Precor IGR take to work? answer now
    Asked on December 15, 2025 4:46 PM
    A Precor IGR begins working immediately after application, but because it is an insect growth regulator, results are not instant in the way a contact insecticide works. Instead of killing adult insects right away, Precor IGR stops flea eggs and larvae from developing into biting adults. Most users notice a significant decline in new flea activity within 7–14 days, which aligns with the flea life cycle. When used alongside an adulticide, full control is typically achieved within 2–3 weeks, as existing adults die off and no new fleas are able to mature.

    Q What is the correct mix rate of Precor IGR for flea control? answer now
    Asked on August 20, 2025 4:12 PM
    A The mix rate of Precor® IGR Concentrate (Methoprene 1.2%) depends on the size of the treatment area: Standard Indoor Treatments: Mix 1 oz of Precor IGR per 1 gallon of water, which will treat up to 1,500 square feet of surface area (carpets, rugs, upholstery, pet bedding, and flooring). Large Areas or Heavy Infestations: For larger areas, increase the amount proportionally (for example, 2 oz per 2 gallons of water covers up to 3,000 sq. ft.). 👉 Precor IGR works by interrupting the flea life cycle, preventing eggs and larvae from developing into biting adults. It does not kill adult fleas, so for best results, use it in combination with an adulticide (such as a flea spray or residual insecticide). Always read and follow the product label directions for safe and effective use.

    When looking for fleas, there are a few key signs to watch for. The most obvious is bites on your body, especially around the ankles. You might also notice fleas jumping on floors, carpets, or bedding. Additionally, if your pets are scratching more than usual, check their fur by parting it to spot any fleas. If you find fleas, it’s time to tackle these pesky pests. Precor IGR can help interrupt the flea life cycle and works best when paired with an adulticide like Alpine WSG.
