Customer Reviews for Drione Dust

The dust stopped the bugs coming in. Soon they found a different entrance ... until a new application of dust stopped entry again.

I purchased this along with a Centrobulb Duster to eliminate a bees nest in my log cabin. The bees were entering through a large crack on the outside. I put some dust in the crack one night and they were gone in a very short time. Great product.

This is a GREAT PRODUCT! I used this for the Carpenter ants that was trying to take over my house.. they were so big and always flew in front of the t.v. or to the light bulbs. not only was it annoying, they started to fly AT us! I did my research and saw all the positive reviews on this product so i took my chances and got it. Best decision EVER! Gone within 2 days and all the other nests destroyed

I used Drione Dust with the bellow hand duster this summer to control dozens of cicada killers. The products seemed to work effectively, but time will tell. This will be an on going battle because I am sure I didn't find all of the tunnels to kill off the larvae. On the recommendation of other customers, I put some small pebbles in the bellow duster and that seemed to help keep the dust from clumping.

Saw roaches for the first time ever in my home. Along with max force bait traps, I used Drione for wall voids. Also used in carpenter bee holes. Did the job instantly. Would use again

Yellowjackets had built a large inaccessible nest behind the siding where it extends several inches below the basement foundation and had managed to find a way into our basement through an electrical box in an interior basement wall. Spraying three cans of bee killer where the bees were coming and going on the outside of the house was a waste of money. I purchased Drione Dust and a bulb duster from DIY. I poofed the dust under the siding after dark. The next day there were only 3 or 4 bees visible. I dusted again the next two nights until no bees were left. I also poofed dust into the electrical box in the basement which eliminated the newly-hatched bees trying to escape the outside dust by coming inside. ALL IN ALL A REMARKABLY EFFECTIVE WAY TO KILL A YELLOW JACKET NEST THAT CAN'T BE SEEN OR ACCESSED WITH BEE SPRAY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DRIONE DUST AND THE BULB DUSTER. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

Used this product last year to get rid of wasps in outside walls while doing construction. Worked great and it seems like less wasps are around the whole house this year, not just where we dusted.

I bought this after doing research on the computer.the pest stuff you buy at stores does not have enough pesticide to kill anything really.all those major brand names are nothing.this is what you need.i sprayed it on some different insects and nothing moved after 5 seconds .and not one bug around my house.only bad thing is it did not ship when it was supposed to.but they refunded my shipping.I will always use do my own pest control.make sure you do the right measurements

Use at a K-12 school works very well. Kills yellow jackets very well. Word of warning once you dust the yellow jackets they go crazy. About a day later they are all dead.

I purchased drione dust to combat a yellow jacket nest in a floor void. First, i tried using your typical spray can aerosols to no avail. After much frustration, i turned to the internet for help and came across this product and figured i'd give it a shot. Best decision i ever made and worth every penny! With just one application i wiped out the entire colony in 24 hours. The next day i checked the area for activity and all i found were dead, dust covered yellow jackets all over the ground. I will be purchasing the 7lb pail in the near future to dust my attic and the remaining floor joist voids to prevent this from happening next summer.

I took out 3 yellow jacket nests with just a few puffs of Drione each. 2 nests inside walls and vinyl siding corners, and one big paper nest. Hit them at night, and next day not a single yj to be found. 3 puffs around an overhang that seemed to collect spiders and stinkbugs. Weeks later, not a bug in sight. I'm thinking that the 1 lb jug might be several year's supply for a homeowner.

I have puffed this at wasp nests and seen them fall to the ground writhing, hopefully in as much pain as their stinger causes, within two minutes. I have taken out several yellow jacket nests to no activity within three hours. Carpenter Bees??? They get their application going in or out of their hole then... GONE! There is not a corner or tiny crevice that has not gotten this treatment. Dead Bug Walking!

This is our second purchase of Drione Dust. We have found it very effective for black carpenter ants.

We found a wasp nest behind the siding and tried to eliminate the wasps but wasn't successful until we spray Drione dust into the tiny holes that the waps used. One treatment and we haven't seen a single wasp since.

This stuff works! I had bees inside the wood siding on my house and tried sprays to kill them and it didn't phase them. So I bought this after reading the reviews. Put two applications in the hole and the bees are gone!

this used in low volume causes such a control factor that all other products put together will not give the same excellent effects this product does,this product is the GOLD SEAL OF PEST CONTROL plain and simple worth every dollar

This is the best product we have used to get rid of the carpenter bees that have plagued us for years. It exceeded our expectations. It is easy to use and not harmful to us. We have been telling everyone about Drione and highly recommend it.

Using the bellow hand duster, I applied the Drione to two below-ground nests after dusk, and monitored them over the next 4 wks for any emerging yellow jackets that were in larval stage at application time. Easy to load into bellows without much product loss. No dust cloud emissions from product using the bellows underground. I would have expected the need to treat at least 3 times to eliminate developing larvae. Perfect product when applied according to directions and to appropriate correct target pest.

I used it once against a colony of sugar ants that hadn't responded to borax nor to diatomaceous earth. It killed them all within a week, maybe less. Not sure if I can live with myself after unleashing such a weapon against such a meager for.

I consider this to be the #1 choice for control of brown recluse spiders. In the question an answers they said no. Spiders don't groom themselves. This is what the professionals used on my home. Since then I purchased the B&G electric duster for use in attic .Bulb dusters for crack and crevice applications. Need coveralls, gloves, face mask,glasses. No bare skin. It works GREAT !!!!!

Yes it is way more pricier than Delta dust and Tempo 1% dust. But Drione has a much faster kill rate than those two. If you have bald faced hornets nest, puff some Drione and it will shut down that nest. Now if you have ground hornets then apply Delta dust since it can handle moisture and dampness. So for the more aggressive, bald faced hornets, use the expensive Drione and save the cheaper ones for in ground or structured (house sidings) applications.

We had 3 yellow jacket nests in our house. It is a brick house with aluminum fascia covering and vinyl siding. The bees crawl in the mortar joints to get under the fascia and siding. I puffed a good quantity of Drione dust in the entryway they were using. It was pretty strange having bees swarming around me, but luckily I did not get stung. Drione does not kill instantly but by the next afternoon all bee action had stopped. Drione Dust works great, I highly recommend it!

We had yellow jackets building a nest in the wall of our house. While desperately researching what to do about them, I ran across this item. Based on the information and shipping time, I decided to give it a try. It was beyond great. Several of the yellow jackets died upon touching the dust so I knew it was working. We were able to get the dust inside the crack and within one day the trouble was over. I was so impressed with this I told my co-workers and even passed along the website to one that is having pest trouble.

I used Drione Dust to kill the bore bees that were attacking my log home. It appears to have worked GREAT! I applied the dust into the hole and within 5 minutes, the dying bees came rolling out. The dust residue stays in the hole and continues to kill the bees that climb back into the hole. Now I need to apply the preventative measures that this site supplies and hopefully my home will be "bee free."

Used the Drione dust for a carpenter bee problem. It was easy to apply and worked great. No more bees. sealed the holes with wood filler. Very strong stuff. Highly recommended. Just apply at dusk when its cool and the bees don't even come out.

Dusted area of infestation in a log cabin. Put dust in between the logs and checks. Kills almost instantly. Ants came pouring out and died. Continued coming out and dying for a day or so. Am going to use a ground solution and gel to be sure under the cabin in the crawl space to be sure eradicated.

The Carpenter bees started coming out this weekend and in preparation I had dusted the holes a few weeks ago. What a difference! I noticed dead bees all over as the dust was more than they could handle. I am impressed so far. We'll see how this keeps up.
