    Q
    Can you use Delta Dust Insecticide indoors? In drains?
    We have springtails coming in through the drains and some ac vents! Will this help in this context?
    A

    Delta Dust Insecticide is not labeled for bathroom or kitchen drains, it is primarily for uee in cracks and crevice. If you have vents that blow air into the home caution should be used to take care the dust is not blown through the vents.  Delta dust can be used on floor drains (to sewers).

    Q
    Can Delta Dust be applied in the rain by a hired pest control company?
    The company I hired showed up when I wasnt home and applied Delta Dust around the exterior during a rain storm. When I called and asked they told me it was okay and legal and the rain wont effect it.
    A

    While we cannot comment specifically on another person's application, it's not illegal to apply Delta Dust Insecticide in the rain. Delta Dust Insecticide is waterproof. Our concern is that if the rain storm was bad enough, it could potentially wash the product away.

    Q
    Can Delta Dust be applied under a deck?
    Can I apply Delta Dust under my deck to prevent spiders or will the rain wash away the dust?
    A
    Delta dust can be applied under a deck but it can be washed away by running water. You may want to consider using a concentrated product such as Talstar P that can be applied with a sprayer and will be rain fast.

    Q
    Can I use Delta Dust along the small rock borders that surround my property?
    I am renting and found out we had a scorpion infestation. I have sprayed perimeter with PCO cedar oil, cyfluthrin and bifurin. Also sprayed interior. I have 5 adjacent neighbors, only 1 sprays. As my brother is blind I have to do everything I can. I decided NOT to add delta dust to top of block wall as I have no way to protect anything good that touches it so can I add to ground level rock borders as added protection to keep migrating scorpion from Neighbors getting to close? I need to be responsible to protect my brother but also protect any wandering animals, etc
    A

    Yes, Delta Dust can be applied to the base of the rock wall to protect against scorpions. This product is water-resistant and will not wash away in the rain if applied into the cracks and crevices. Be sure to re-apply every seven months.

    Q
    Does Delta Dust Insecticide kill the cicada killer larvae?
    I've marked all the cicada killer holes in my yard (89). I bought Dione dust because it will kill the larvae but it's going to rain all week and that makes Drione dust ineffective. So if I use Delta Dust instead, will it also kill the larvae?
    A

    Delta Dust Insecticide is actually the most recommended dust for cicada killer wasps holes as it is 100% waterproof so will still work when wet.
