    Will Delta Dust Insecticide kill midges/no-see-ums in their nests?

    No, Delta Dust Insecticide is not labeled to control midges in general nor noseeums.  Flying insects are also harder to kill with dusts as they have to crawl through the area it is has been applied to pick it up and be effected.

    Q
    How far will Delta Dust Insecticide travel before settling once airborne?
    A

    How far an insecticide dust such as Delta Dust may drift before settling will depend on several factors such as what kind of duster is used to apply it, the humidity in the area, and any air movement in the space where it is applied. If you would like to share more about where you are treating, the target pest, and what kind of duster you are using, then we can better assist you. Keep in mind that Delta Dust is for use only in cracks and crevices and interior voids, not for use in open living spaces or outdoors.

    Q
    What sizes particles does Delta Dust contain?
    Ironically, a faulty air purifier being used to help filter Delta Dust has sprayed the dust all over the house. We are attempting to purchase an AC filter with a high enough MERV rating to filter it but are unsure of size or if it can be done.
    A
    Delta Dust Insecticide is a fine white powder, but we advise contacting the manufacturer Bayer directly for assistance with specific product questions at (800) 331-2867.

    Q
    Is Delta Dust Insecticide a repellent?
    I want to use this product in a commercial kitchen setting where often American roaches appear coming from the holes where gas and water lines protrude from the wall. Will applying this product repel roaches in a manor that will work counter productive since it's main ingredient is a synthetic pyrethroid. I really don't want to push roaches out onto a busy kitchen.
    A

    Delta Dust is considered a repellent because insects can detect it. This does not mean they are truly repelled from the area they can just choose to avoid it as they know something is there. They must contact the treated area to be effected by the product though Click the link here to be taken to our roach control guide.
