    Didn't Do The Job

    By Anonymous on 06/30/2013

    I purchased D-Fense Dust mainly for scorpions. To test it's effect, I caught a scorpion, placed it in a container & sprinkled Dust on it. 24 hours later, the scorpion was alive and well. I don't know how well it works on other pests, but it has little or no effect on scorpion.

    No effect seen on scorpions

    By Ml on 09/07/2017

    I'm dealing with Arizona bark scorpions. I put one in a jar that I had lightly dusted with D-Fense. No effect after a day, so I dusted lightly again. No effect after two days, so I dusted again... by which time the bug had visible amounts on its back. After five days still no effect. Another reviewer here had similar results. I wonder why this is labeled for scorpions.

    Not very effective

    By Shaun on 06/30/2016

    After spreading the dust generously in and around basement several weeks ago we are seeing record amounts of centipedes. I had expected an increase in sightings immediately after application but a quick reduction after several days obviously not getting that. The worst thing is they seem very alive and healthy.

    Sadly

    By Joanne on 09/25/2017

    I had a yellow jacket nest in wall of my house. I knew right where their entrance was, went out after dark and sprayed the dust in with no problem 3 nights in a row and it did nothing...they kept on coming. The 4th night I put a ton of dust in the hole and plugged it with tin foil. Somehow they found a way around that also.

    NOT waterproof like Delta Dust!!!

    By Bryan on 03/02/2021

    Verified Purchase

    I was really upset by this product. I should have noticed how this product scooped when I placed it into my pressurized and hand dusters. VERY DISAPPOINTED.

    Misled

    Mentioned wasp and hornets as targets. Did nothing to even slow down presence after two does into their entrance. Don't know about other pest

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    We are sorry to hear you weren't happy with the results of the D-Fense dust so far. Colony pests such as wasps and hornets can be difficult to eliminate if the entire nest is not visible to treat and remove it all at once. Dust applications must be made to the entry/exit points they use, and over time they will take small parts of the chemical on their bodies further into the nest. This process can usually take several weeks, depending on nest size and colony activity. If you have given this amount of time or longer and still see activity, please reach out to the pros on our team at 866-581-7378 and we would be happy to troubleshoot with you and help you find a resolution and way to successfully eliminate the pest.
