DELTA DUST containing deltamethrin is the world's first and only 100% waterproof insecticide dust, so it works in the wet and damp places that insects love. Nothing short of running water will disturb it, making Delta Dust an ideal crack and crevice treatment. Delta Dust should be applied with a bellows hand duster (sold separately) which allows you to easily apply the dust in hard to reach areas. One application of Delta Dust will keep on killing insects for up to eight months.
Delta Dust for Bed Bug Control: Delta Dust should not be the only product used in the fight against bed bugs as it does not kill quick enough. For best results, use a contact kill such as Sterifab or Bedlam or an insecticide such as Temprid FX in addition to Delta Dust. Our Bed Bug Control Kits contain everything you need to treat for bed bugs.

Proper Dusting Tips:
Worked GREAT!
By Jennifer on 09/28/2008
The siding on my home is red cedar and apparently it is a favorite treat for CARPENTER BEES. They were making terrible holes in the siding like perfectly round bullet holes, and then the woodpeckers would come along and peck at the wood making long channels so they could reach the carpenter bees behind the wood. It was a mess. My painters filled the wood with BONDO and caulk and wood filler...but that did not stop the bees. Over night they bored right through ALL of the products and the fresh paint. I called three exterminators but everyone told me they would spray and I would have to pay again and again in a few months because you could not kill them with just one spray. I BEG TO DIFFER! I found Delta Dust and I puffed it into the fresh new active holes that the bees made after painting. Within 24 hours I picked up over thirty dead bees on the ground around my house (I have small dogs and I did not want them eating dead poisoned bees). By 48 hours the count had risen to over SIXTY dead bees... and there are NONE flying around the holes, or siding any more! DELTA DUST IS A MUST for carpenter bees. It worked GREAT!!!!

Amazing!
By Rhonda on 06/23/2006
We have ordered Delta Dust in the past to control Brown Recluse Spiders. It is amazing! We had our house sprayed for several years, twice a year, and we would still have Brown Recluse Spiders. I found your website and ordered Delta Dust from you, and our Brown Recluse Problem has been cut in half. We continue to apply the Delta Dust and see great results. Thank You!! P.S. We use it as a perimeter treatment and also in wall voids, in the attic space and under the house. I am very thankful for your product as we were killing approximately 5 spiders a week before we used the Delta Dust. I still find them now and then, especially when the dust has been washed away outside.

This stuff saved my sanity and my marriage!
By A on 06/23/2011
My husband picked up bed bugs in a four star hotel while away for work in the UK. We know that's where he got them because he'd seen one inside his suitcase the day he returned and he was asking me if I knew what it was. I didn't and we just thought it was "a bug" not realizing that a within a week we'd both be covered all over our abdomens and arms with the nasty bed beg bites. We vacuumed, cleaned, tossed bedding, dry cleaned etc but they kept coming back. Until I did my research and discovered Drione dust. Follow the instructions to a T and you'll succeed in eradicating those evil, disgusting pests. We also did the "Vasoline" around the feet of our bed which helps keep them from climbing up the bed from other areas of the home. It was HELL. HELL!! But we beat them. We also bought the air tight mattress and box spring protectors. They work! It's all good, it all helps. Good luck!

Delta Dust for Yellow Jackets
By Vr on 08/30/2010
Verified Purchase
Great results!
By Carrie on 01/13/2007
I use a hand duster to puff Delta Dust into wall voids by inserting the duster underneath my baseboards. It will kill whatever is living inside the walls or travelling along the perimeters of the room. Also used Suspend SC (liquid version of Deltamethrin) with a gallon sprayer on top of the dust for an added punch-- this duo of Delta Dust and Suspend SC has given me great results in getting rid of earwigs, spiders, ants, and fleas.

Yes, Delta Dust Insecticide can be used to kill yellow jackets. You can find helpful tips and information on our article of How to Get Rid of Yellow Jackets.
How to get rid of them?
Although Delta Dust Insecticide is not labeled for hornet control, you could consider thoroughly dusting the void entrance and the surrounding areas with Tempo Dust using a hand duster.
will Delta Dust work? and how to apply it
Delta Dust works well and provides excellent coverage when applied in and around the nest. Delta Dust lasts 4 to 6 months and will result in a quick kill. Apply dust liberally using a bulb duster (for easier application) and repeat in 3 to 4 months to control for newly hatched yellow jackets.
No, Delta Dust Insecticide does not control geckos. We do not carry any products to kill lizards.

I have a wasp infestation in a downspout. I cannot see the nest but I do see the flying in and out of the open top which is not accessible from the roof. The opening is about 15 feet from the ground. Can I use Delta Dust for this purpose and if so, how can I get it to the top of the downspout?
Delta Dust Insecticide is an insecticide dust only and not a bait. While some insects can pick it up and transfer it to others they are in contact with, it alone will not eliminate a colony/nest unless you are directly dusting it or any holes where insects are coming and going. This process can take a few days or longer depending on the target pest and level of infestation.
I received a bottle of Delta dust that has a manufacturing date of 01–2023. If I was wondering is the shelflife three years from the date now that I open it or is it three years from the manufacturing date meaning this bottle is only good for one and a half more years thank you.
Delta Dust Insecticide has a shelf life of 3-5 years once opened.

When is it safe for dogs to enter area?
Delta Dust Insecticide is not labeled for gypsy moth caterpillars and should only be used as a crack and crevice application using a bellow hand duster around exterior and interior windows, doors, gaps/cracks in siding, around where utilities come into the home. This would not be used out in open areas.
Talstar P would be a better choice to spray on the branches, foliage, trunk and around the base of the tree under the canopy. Talstar P can also be applied to lawns, ornamental shrubs, bushes, trees, flowers as well as to the exterior foundation of the home. For Gypsy Moth Caterpillars, apply at the rate of 0.125 - 0.25 fl oz per gallon of water. Please review the full product label for more information.
What is the best way to puff Delta Dust into the attic area, and do I need to take any precautions as I have an HVAC unit in the attic? Does the unit need to be turned off for a period of time?
Delta Dust is best applied in cracks and crevices with a hand duster. This product should be applied in areas where it will not be disturbed, such as directly inside wall voids, under baseboards etc. You should not apply near HVAC systems.
Delta Dust Insecticide is dry powder only and would not be mixed with water and sprayed. Suspend SC would be a concentrated option with the same active.
Please take a look at our roach control guide for the best advice on how to effectively eliminate roaches.
With or without a dehumidifier?
Yes, Delta Dust Insecticide is labeled for use in crawl spaces as directed on the product label.
I have a cat is it safe to use
Delta Dust Insecticide is safe for pets as long as used as directed. Make sure you keep them out of the area while applying & they may return once the dust has settled

In ground nests are best treated with a dust being puffed into the holes they are entering and exiting from and around the hole entry. Tempo 1% Dust and Delta Dust are our two most popular choices for this application. You can use something like a B&G Bulb Duster or a Long Shot Puffer Duster for applying the dust to the holes. You will want to squeeze the duster about 5-6 times applying a light but thorough coating of the dust to the treatment area. Apply late in the evening or at night with a flash light when they are least active and back in the nest. It can take at least a week or so for the entire nest to be eliminated in each hole. If you still see activity coming and going after about 10 days you can retreat the same way with the dust to knock out the rest of the nest.

I have an underground yellow jacket nest I want to treat but it is right under an oakleaf hydrangea shrub. Will the dust harm the shrub?
Delta Dust Insecticide is safe to be applied near/around ornamentals, it would not damage them in any way
You may wipe up excess Delta Dust Insecticide https://www.domyown.com/delta-dust-insecticide-p-44.html with a damp paper towel. Dead insects may be cleaned up with a vacuum or dust pan and broom.
