    How it Works
    Cyfluthrin, the active ingredient in Tempo Ultra, is in the pyrethroid chemical class. Tempo Ultra contains the resolved isomer betacyfluthrin. Tempo acts as a contact insecticide affecting both the central and peripheral nervous systems of target pests with secondary activity as a stomach poison.

    This outstanding control results in less chemical in the environment. Turf professionals use up to 80 percent less active ingredient with Tempo than that used with organophosphates/insecticides.

    FAQ
    Q: Is Tempo Ultra a good replacement for organophosphate insecticides?
    A: Yes. Tempo Ultra is a pyrethroid, which is known for its quick knockdown of insects. It controls more than 50 turf and ornamental pests, and this outstanding control results in less chemical in the environment. Professionals use up to 80 percent less active ingredient by using Tempo rather than organophosphate insecticides.

    Q: What Tempo Ultra formulations are available for professional use?
    A: Tempo is available in several formulations. There is Tempo SC Ultra, a suspension concentrate, and Tempo Ultra WP, which comes in water-soluble packets and in a 420-gram jar.
