floromite residual is more than 28 days. (per the directions) I recall
avid being 21. I try to avoid using either but if I had to choose one it would be floromite.
I have only ever needed to use it once. The 28 days should be long enough to kill the life cycle of adults and eggs.
In my experience, You should not need to respray it. The mites will be dead. It can also be used as a dunk/dip. Combine with some sufectant to help penetration.
Stirrup-M can be used in combination with the floromite (or
avid) in order to attract the mites to the spray and make sure they are killed.
Make sure to use used gloves, goggles (or glasses) and a respirator. Better safe than sorry.
