    Q
    Do you place CimeXa Insecticide Dust all over carpet?
    Reading about the uses for getting rid of bedbugs. It says to spray it directly on the carpet. Is this true?
    A

    Bedbugs will hide wherever there are places for them to hide. In most situations you will not be required to spray all of the carpet for bedbugs because bedbugs will not sit out in the middle of the carpet. Usually you will concentrate your treatments up under the lip of the carpet and other cracks …

    Q
    Can I puff this in the pipe holes under kitchen counter
    I have used bait and a IGR to treat German roaches. I have also sprayed an insecticide along the baseboards and behind appliances. I added CimeXa to the outlets in the kitchen, but can I also puff this powder underneath the kitchen sink where there is a hole for the water pipes? How about the gap underneath the sink behind the dishwasher and the kitchen cabinets?
    A

    Yes, CimeXa Insecticide Dust would be a great additional step in treating for German Roaches in the home. Using a hand duster, apply 1-2 puffs to gaps and openings around plumbing, under sinks, around toilets, behind cabinets, counters and other hard to reach areas. Click HERE to view our How to Use
