Customer Reviews for Niban Granular Bait - 4 lb. Shaker

Bought this last year to rid myself of slugs and it worked as advertised. Bought it again for this season.

In all honesty, this stuff works!! I was using different brands of insect sprays and gel bait formulas with little success and I was getting frustrated. I did some research and decided on a bait that would cover a wider area. I decided on this Niban scatter bait because a YouTube video stated that it is water resistant. I am not kidding when I say that the following days after using this in my front and back yard I started seeing huge dead bugs that I did not even know were in the area! I mainly purchased this for roach and cricket control and have not seen a single live one of either since using this product. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Definitely gets rid of those slimy slugs in mulch beds. Product shipped and received quickly. Best online retailer I have ever used and will continue to use for my pest control needs.

Spread bait around perimeter of house and set up small plates with bait in around my basement, the day after I received the product. It's been about ten days and the number of camel spiders has diminish to none. I done see them outside and they are not inside either. I plan on purchasing another container in about 4 month, which is the recommended interval.

I use this product for the cave crickets; the big ugly half spider half cricket looking things that jump very high and are blind so easily can get on you!!! This is the absolute best and safest product with instant results for these ugly critters and would highly suggest this product.

This stuff works I have been using it for years every summer for cave crickets. Once applied they are gone however when summer returns the next season they are back To be fair the new infestation is most likely new pest entering from outside. One thing about Niban is that any left over bait that I applied last season seems to be ineffective for the next summer I have found that with the new infestation I must vacuum up any Bait that is in place from last season as the crickets are no longer attracted to it and I must reapply fresh bait every season.

Great product. I would see 2-3 cave crickets whenever I would go to the basement. I put Niban on small paper plates as well as duct tape sticky side up on wood pieces. Within 2 weeks, I have not seen any around.

My mother in law had cellar crickets in her basement and the Niban seemed to do the trick. Also fast delivery.

Amazingly effective. I use this for camel crickets in the basement, no crickets. I also used it around the outside of the house this year in the basement window wells instead of Bifin. Again, no crickets this year. Also shake it around the outside of the vacation house during dry spells in the summer for slugs and carpenter ants. Slugs have been reduced 80%. Ants I also have a regular and aggressive spray routine. All in all this is great for the basement bugs and a second layer of defense outdoors. I'm very happy with Niban.

We have been overrun with silver fish, and nothing seemed to work. However, I bought this product - and also the little plastic "make your own traps ' - swept it into the wood floor and corners, then put the plastic bait traps we made in the most likely areas. We haven't seen a silverfish in 2 weeks. So, we are very happy. I chose this over another, similar, product that was a bit less expensive because it comes in a plastic container with a screw on lid. the difference in cost is more than made up for in ease of storing the bait safely. The other product only comes in a large bag, making it harder to keep it thoroughly closed and in good condition.

Since using this product ants and crickets are under control and barely there. I use only outside and I have pets and has never been an issue.

This is my third time using the Niban Granular Bait in 5 years and there is no need for "Over Kill". This is by far the best product on the market.

I have a pest service and was still getting those disgusting cave crickets. Then added to that were centipedes. I noticed when they applied granular pesticide I had significantly fewer pests. They only apply it twice a year. I checked the receipt for the granules they used and Niban was listed as the granules. I bought 2 4lb shakers bottles and did it myself!! Yippee...it worked great!! No bugs at all for the last 3 wks since I treated. Thank you !!!!!!

I've been having a problem with cave crickets for the past three years. Cave crickets are very big, very aggressive insects that look like aliens. They walk, jump (usually right at me) and love dark spaces. If that's not enough, they are cannibal carnivores too. Prior to this invasion three years ago, I'd never heard of or seen them before. An expensive exterminator did not solve the cricket problem, though he did educate me about them. He used a "bomb" to get rid of them, which required a good deal of preparation ahead of time and cleaning after the fact. Within 29 days of treatment the crickets were back. The warranty was for 30 days. He did not bomb again, but sprinkled granules of something he said I couldn't buy anywhere myself. Whatever the stuff was, it worked. Instead of immediately calling the exterminator, I did a little research the second year, when the crickets returned. That's when I came across Niban. Surprise, surprise, it looked just like the granules the exterminator had used, and was the product that came up the most in my search results. I bought the Niban, treated the perimeter and possible entry points in my house and the crickets disappeared. This is the third year of the crickets and I kicked myself for not pre-treating at the end of summer. I could have prevented seeing the one that got in the house. They tend to pop up in early autumn, as the weather cools and dampens here in PA. I will not make that mistake again next year. I plan on keeping a supply of Niban on hand as long as I live in this house. It works with all kinds of insects, ants (which seem to have followed the crickets in), spiders, etc. I've noticed a difference in the weeks since I initially treated the exterior perimeter of the house. I haven't seen an ant, a cricket or anything else. I do re-apply after heavy winds and/or rain, but there's enough in the bottle to last me at least several months. Do My Own Pest Control is always fast and affordable. I plan on using them for any pest control needs I may have in the future.

We have tried many products to control earwigs at our house and nothing really helped. I have use this for about a month now and it works great. No more earwigs inside.

I live in a home surrounded by woods on two sides. I like to mulch with pine straw (I have lots of pine trees) but am aware that bugs like to hide under the straw. I also use cardboard to suppress weeds around shrubbery before I put down the pine straw, which bugs also appreciate, so...the Niban granular helps a great deal in controlling insects (like roaches) rather than my yard being a healthy environment for them.

I already knew the product was good, My satisfaction and appreciation is for the fast service and delivery provided by DoMyOwn, which is paramount when you need to react to a problem quickly.

This product works great. I live in a camper and I sprinkled it all around the outside parimiter due to ants as well as other insects. It worked so quickly. I am very satisfied with this product.

Had house crickets for several months . Caught them in sticky traps for a time but then I kept seeing more. So I had purchased crabgrass killer " which worked beautifully" from Do My Own before , so I went and found the Niban , put it in the basement in plastic cover lids and about 2 weeks later nothing in fresh traps. Stuff worked great. Would recommend.

This works wonderfully. I spread it down and don't see any insects coming inside. I do this 2 times a year. Spring and Fall. Seems to work the best in my area.

We had a bad infestation of cave crickets in our basement and crawl spaces that were finding their way into our living spaces. I was killing up to 4 per night. I bought the Niban bag in August and spread it around the perimeter of the house, in the basement and crawl spaces. I've seen 2 since then. I did apply the Niban 3x since august, but this stuff works... massive improvement.

Product came on time. Sprinkled it on the periphery of the house within a couple of days. About three weeks have passed so far, haven't seen any bugs in or around the house.

THIS PRODUCT IS MAGIC! Within one day ALL camel crickets disappeared!!!!! A life changer. I was petrified to go into my brand new renovated basement. Every time I would turn my back.....2-3 would appear. I installed a small dehumidifier even though the basement was not damp. I sprinkled around the house about 1 foot away from foundation. The next day not ONE! I will be using this forever! The sales agent at Do My Own had the patience of a saint with me. She was amazing in comforting me and offering this and other solutions. Hope everyone uses this product and company! Thank you!!
