    Q
    Will D-Force Insecticide 100% kill a deer tick that is hiding in my car???
    A

    D-Force Insecticide is labeled for use to control ticks and other listed insects in vehicles. You would apply as a spot or crack and crevice treatment only in areas such as door jams, under rugs, and under seats. This would kill ticks that you spray directly or which contact enough residual insecticide after you have sprayed. We recommend that you first clean out the car and vacuum it well before spraying. 

    We apologize but we cannot offer a guarantee on the products as we cannot guarantee that they will be used as directed. We do try to provide as much information as possible on what to expect and how to to use as well as what to do non chemically.  We do know they work and you can read previous customer reviews right on the product pages.

    Q
    Clothes Moths and Plaster Bagworms
    Is this the correct product to use for clearing Clothes Moths and Plaster Bagworms?
    A

    The D-Force Insecticide is labeled for clothes moths, but not for plaster bagworms. We would recommend you use the ProPest Pheronet Clothes Moth Traps. These traps will lure and kill webbing cloth moths, the most common type of clothes moth. This product is best used in conjunction with a crack and crevice aerosol to treat under and around baseboards and door frames in the infested area.

     
    Also, according to a University of Florida Extension article on clothes moths and plaster bagworms, a great product to use for this would be Tempo SC Ultra. You also want to be sure that you are removing any and all spider webs that may be in the area as well as the old bagworms casings which are food sources for the bagworms.

    Q
    Will D-force work inside a car infested with bird mites and if not what will? Which IGR works for bird mites?
    A

    While D-Force is labeled for use in cars, it is not labeled for bird mites. A thorough vacuuming and steam cleaning or shampooing of the fabric will remove and kill most of the population that may have entered the car. If the car has been parked under a tree where birds are roosting, you may want to park it in a different spot if possible. Remove any nests that you can from the area to reduce reinfestation of the car from the environment.

    Q
    Can I use D-Force HPX on the exterior of my car to treat for ants?
    My car (Subaru Forester) seems to attract ants. Other cars nearby will have not ants on them but mine will sometimes have hundreds. They're not trying to get inside. They are all over the outside. No particular place. I've searched all over the car and can find no nest. I've been through car washes. I've sprayed the tires and around in cracks with Specracide but it doesn't help. I remembered that I bought a can of Invader HPX from you a long time ago and pulled that out. It at least killed some along the back bumper. Help! I hate ants. I can't figure out why this is happening.
    A

    D-Force HPX would be an excellent option for ants in and around your vehicle. It does have a residual of 30 days.

    Q
    Can this product be used with Gentrol for cigarette beetles? If yes, which one is applied first?
    A
    Yes, D-Force HPX can be applied with Gentrol IGR. We would recommend using the Gentrol IGR first and letting it dry. The residual is 4 months with this product so you do not have to use this every time you are spraying for the cigarette beetles. D-Force HPX has a residual of up to 8 weeks. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Q
    Exterminator sprayed in cracks of pantry while food was still in there
    Our exterminator sprayed this in cracks and crevices of the pantry to kill pantry moths. However, the food was still on the shelves. While I know he didn't spray the food directly, wouldn't some of it get on the cans, boxes, etc? Do I have to get rid of this food? Wash shelves? Thanks.
    A
    While we cannot commment on what an Exterminator did, we can comment on the product. You want to be sure that all food and food handling products are removed before application.

    Q
    Does D-Force HPX work for millipedes?
    I think I have millipedes. They are around my basement baseboards and are black, thin worms about 1/2" long and usually found dead and curled into a coil. However, I can't see any legs on them so I wonder if they are really millipedes.
    A

    D-Force HPX is not specifically labeled for millipedes. You will want to make sure that this is the insect that you are treating for first. You can get a pest identification from your local cooperative extension office. We do carry products that can be applied to eradicate millipedes.

  • Asked by Tim from Villa Park, Illinois

    Q
    Does D-Force work for Carpenter bee holes in wood and what would you recommend for knocking down the male bee?
    A
    D-Force HPX will eliminate carpenter bees in their holes. D-Force HPX does not offer an instant knockdown and the bee will die within a few hours of contact. We recommend that you use a concentrated liquid insecticide such as Equil Lambda 9.7 on the exterior of your home to eliminate any other carpenter bees that may fly into the area in search of a place to drill a hole. By spraying the wood you would help prevent furture damage from carpenter bees. The male carpenter bees do not cause damage and they cannot sting but they will be eliminated if they land on any treated area.
