Awesome product for the price
By Dollarseed on 08/29/2012
I'll admit, this thing had the best of me at first. I figured I could just squeeze the bulb, and out would come the dust. In fact, I couldn't get it to shove out any dust at all. I then learned that you need to hold it at about a 45 degree angle to the side to really move the DE dust, and the long bent tips worked the best for my application needs. You also want to be careful about how much product you put in at one time. I would recommend only filling it 50% full or less each time. The different tips, etc. are a great plus for getting into cracks and crevices if that is your application need. I highly recommend the B&G Bulb Duster 1150. Great long lasting product for a very reasonable price.

Bulb Duster
By John on 05/29/2012
The bulb duster was very effective when used with Cynoff dust to eliminate carpenter bees in my deck. Although, the dust product can be applied without the duster, I believe the dust bulb is very important to get the insecticide where it needs to go if you are trying to eliminate burrowing insects. Considering the bulb is likely to last for years, it is a very good investment to deliver insecticide.

Bulb Duster used for Applying Diatomaceous Earth
By Dave on 07/12/2014
We "had" an ant problem. Big-time. Not wanting to use pesticides around our pets and children I learned of "Diatomaceous Earth." (Google it!) Got a-big-bag-of-the-stuff at Home Depot. (cheap) Purchased a B+G Bulb Duster 1150 from "DoMyOwnPestControl" to apply the product. IT-REALLY-DOES-WORK! "Puffing" the DE around the foundation of our home was, actually, kinda fun. Go figure? (but keep the kids and pets away... for safety, anyway) We used small amounts indoors (just don't squeeze the bulb very much) in wall cracks and crevices: Kitchen, Dining Room, around doors, behind the fridge, stove, etc. Over the next few days... if we saw an ant... then...we gave it a "little puff" of DE. (I'm convinced that they carry it back to the nest... and transfer it to others....or, maybe, even the Queen?) A word-of-caution: The 1150 is "SCARY LOOKING." Make sure you apply the included "Pest Control Device" sticker... and don't try to carry one of these through the security checkpoint at the airport! (Trust me.) It's a lot bigger than you think, too.... holds a good amount of product... and... IT WORKS GREAT!!! We haven't seen an ANT in a month!

Carpenter bees relief!
By Susan on 06/12/2015
Used this great item, at the suggestion of my pest control guy. Our deck was being chewed apart by Carpenter Bees. The flexible tip allowed us to puff boric acid into their chambers, and it distributed the fine dust throughout the very long chamber. Woodpeckers were also adding to the damage while they sought out the larvae within the chambers, so there were holes at the ends of the chambers too. You could see the dust puff out of the hole all the way down the line. Though I hate hurting pollinators, nothing else was working for eliminating them.

Love it!
By Heather on 01/09/2017
Bought this to spread diatomaceous earth under my baseboards, in cracks and crevices, and between the rustic floorboards in our in-progress house. Works fantastic. Takes a bit of practice but still pretty easy. Worth every penny. Seems well constructed and thinking it will last a long time. Different application tips make it easy to get in some really tight spaces. A definite plus to my organic pest control!

great duster

Love this applicator
By Deb on 10/28/2015
This B & G Bulb Duster worked well for applying the Delta Dust Insecticide I purchased. Very easy to use and the different tips provided allow for a wide variety of hard to reach application areas. This Bulb works best when you follow the directions and do not fill it to full.

Bulb Duster
By Tony on 10/19/2015
Far superior to the liquid pump sprayer, at least for inside. Easy to use, no left overs to deal with, cleans up easily. Great way to treat you house. The commercial pest control company at work uses a bulb very similar to this one.

Love the bulb duster
By Louise on 07/29/2017
This item works great! I stun the wasps with DE instead of spraying with insecticide. Used someone's idea of dropping a couple of metal washers inside to help stir things up when I shake the bulb, then give it a gentle squeeze while pointing in direction of wasps building their nest. They become disoriented and usually fly away. If some return, simply repeat the application. The bulb & additional tubes are good quality and I expect to be using this item for years to come.

Amazing

Yellow-jackets in railroad tie retaining wall
By David on 09/03/2015
Tried several sprays including expanding, water-resistant foam without success. Used Delta Dust in combination with Tempo applied with B&G Bulb Duster 1150 (all acquired from Do My Own Pest Control). Bingo! Within 48 hours there was no trace of them. That was over a week a ago and no sign of stragglers. Make sure you wear eye and breathing protection and gloves, and be careful when applying -- the dust is very fine and does emit a small "cloud". Wash everything thoroughly when done. Also,bulb duster works best when squeeze bulb is elevated above the applicator nozzle. Great products!

B &G Bulb Duster-Perfect!
By Lori on 09/04/2016
For 2 years I had yellow jackets entering a tiny crack in my porch wall just above the step. I tried the shop vac and the sprays on the market but could not reach the nest. It must have been several feet from the wall. The Duster was perfect! It's long tiny extension was able to get inside the crack and with 2-3 good puffs it ended my problem. Never saw another yellow jacket after that! I am really happy to have the duster and powder for any future concerns.

B&G Bulb Duster
By Sam on 10/03/2011
I haven't used the product yet. I planned to use it if there were pests in the attic, but after using the Cynoff WP with water and the sprayer, that took care of my pest and wasp problem, for weeks for just the first spray.......but I have no doubts it will work as good as they say it will, because the other product I purchased, the Cynoff WP will last me for the rest of my life. If I ever need to go into the attic or basement, I have a respirator and this Delta Dust Insecticide will work great inside the Bulb Duster.

Professional Quality Duster
By Roland on 10/22/2013
A good duster is essential for broadcasting an even coat of dust in holes and crevices. This is a very good one. Used long angled tip to get dust in yellow jacket nest hole in exterior wall. Produces an aerated stream of dust that can travel into a hole or give good precise placement along a baseboard or in cracks. Directions that come with the duster aren't very good. You have to shake it to get dust inside loose and hold it upside down as you squeeze.

B&G Bulb Duster

cant go wrong
By Mps on 09/12/2012
Durable, user friendly design and includes extension tubes!
By Eric on 08/28/2020
The rubber B&G Bulb Duster 1150 is a durable, premium design compared to some of the plastic bellows type puffers that I saw online. I followed the instructions and only filled bulb half full with Tempo 1% dust insecticide. I had to shake the bulb between puffs to keep dust flowing but it delivered plenty of dust to get the job done. Holding bulb at about 45 degrees downward seemed to work best. Extension tube attachements are included for hard to reach areas. FYI, I forgot to bring the extension tubes with me to a site. So I duct taped 2 plastic drinking straws with flex necks onto the bulb and that also worked great! I used the bulb duster on two yellow jacket nests so far. One below ground and one overhead in a house soffit. The bulb duster performed perfectly both times! FYI, apply dust at night and use a work light stand. The dust weery yellow jackets attacked the work light stand and did not see me! In both cases I used Tempo 1% insecticide dust and the nests had zero activity the next morning. I did not get stung and I am very happy I chose the rubber B&G Bulb Duster 1150 and Tempo 1% to get rid of my yellow jacket nests!

By Richard on 10/25/2012
Functioned sucessfully, the multiple size nozzles allowed the best application depending on the size of gaps encountered and were easy to change. Its construction is a strong one. Even restricted to filling it a maximum half way provided enough for multiple applications.

This thing is the Boss!
By Irene on 08/02/2017
I had a major ant infestation. In the ceiling, coming in through base boards, coming in under the stairs etc. I also have decks and crawl spaces that are a perfect place for them to gain entry. It takes only a few minutes to figure out how to use this duster to get the best "spray". With the different attachments I can get inside openings in my open beam ceiling, in small spaces between the floor and base boards and dust several feet out under my deck and in the crawl spaces. I can also dust the walls easily. Love this thing!
