    Absolutely Effective!

    By Jean on 08/21/2015

    I am skeptical of online products and their reviews, however I am also thrifty and will go the DIY route before calling a pro for almost all home maintenance jobs ... providing my husband is willing to do the work! We had separate sites of yellow jackets and hornets going into our soffits. Hubby was out of town for a week, so if I wanted to walk outside on our deck without getting stung, I decided to try the Tempo dust and the bulb puffer. Success ... after 2-3 puffs and retreating doing an Irish jig. The next day there was only 1 yellow jacket flying around that didn't read the obituary. I saved the fun of the 2nd story hornet nest for the hubby. We have not crawled up into our attics to find and remove the nests, but we are confident they are inactive.

    just a few puffs and BAM

    By Ben on 08/26/2015

    Bees in the siding, bees in roof above the porch. The family was afraid to go out, I had been stung twice in a month. 3 puffs of this stuff with a hand bellow and I did not see a single bee.

    Works as advertised

    By John on 08/27/2015

    This is really fine "dust". It goes everywhere, and you have to be very careful not to get downstream of it. I strongly suggest wearing a mask when using it. That said, it goes where it needs to when using a puffer, getting deep into places where liquids or foams can't go. It is therefore very effective in killing bees or wasps that have burrowed well into a crevice or other spot in your house.

    Removed All Wasps After One Night

    By Jennie on 08/31/2015

    I was convinced we would need to hire an exterminator to deal with our aggressive wasps that had built a large nest in our siding. We were able to "puff" this dust up in to the bottom of the siding and the wasps were all gone the next day. We have the majority of the bottle left in case we have any future problems. I would recommend to anyone.

    Tempo 1% Dust

    By Tom on 09/01/2015

    Very effective at eliminating yellow jackets. I had yellow jackets nesting in the wall of my log cabin next to the main door. Numerous cans of aerosol spray would not remove them, but one application of Tempo 1% from a duster and the yellow jacket problem is gone. The grandchildren and grown-ups can enjoy the cabin again without fear of being stung.

    Yellow jackets in railroad tie retaining wall

    By David on 09/03/2015

    Tried several sprays including expanding, water-resistant foam without success. Used Delta Dust in combination with Tempo applied with B&G Bulb Duster 1150 (all acquired from Do My Own Pest Control). Bingo! Within 48 hours there was no trace of them. That was over a week a ago and no sign of stragglers. Make sure you wear eye and breathing protection and gloves, and be careful when applying -- the dust is very fine and does emit a small "cloud". Wash everything thoroughly when done. Also,bulb duster works best when squeeze bulb is elevated above the applicator nozzle. Great products!

    Tempo Dust

    By Jeff on 09/07/2015

    Worked rapidly and completely effective in one application to an in ground nest of yellow jacket bees. The bee activity from this in ground nest ceased within 48 hours with no new activity since application 1 month ago. I would highly recommend the use of Tempo Dust

    Tempo Dust for Ground Wasp Nests

    By Mike on 09/10/2015

    Product arrived quickly. I had a yellow jacket nest in an old gopher hole, and my backyard cookouts were a nightmare. One big nighttime puff of Tempo Dust (2 nights in a row) and the nest was quiet in 3 days. It worked so well that I used it to lightly dust our high end tree house for ants. The next day, they were all on the floor waiting to be swept up. A++. I used the 1150 bulb duster to apply this stuff, which comes with different tips and a cap for when it is not in use.

    Same thing professionals use!

    By Melani on 09/13/2015

    Verified Purchase

    I have used numerous times to kill hornet and wasp nests behind or inside things that I couldn't spray directly. Works FABULOUS. I had One nest that I couldn't get to, so had a professional come, and he pulled out this EXACT same bottle! He was shocked I had some. There is nothing at the hardware store that is in the same category, don't waste money trying other products. Get a bellow duster, use this, and don't bother with anything else. This is the best stuff ever!!

    Wasps Gone!

    By David on 09/13/2015

    I got rid of 5 red wasps nests under my roof line (in attic space) with one application at night time. I had to go back and spray dust again in 1 location. This stuff is real! I used less than 1/3 bottle and it will last in the space under the eave up to one year undisturbed. I applied it with the Long Shot Puffer Duster. Both worked very well. Just wait till night to use or get stung.

    Kills bees that build in walls or ground.

    By John on 09/15/2015

    The Tempo 1% dust performed higher than my expectations. It killed the bees on contact and killed the rest over a 24 hour period. I had tried liquid aerosol bee spray without success. it wouldn't get in the cracks like the dust. It saved me time and money by not having to higher a exterminator. The directions were simple to understand. I would buy this product again!

    Eliminated yellow jackets

    By Art on 09/15/2015

    I used Tempo 1% Dust along with the Bellow Hand Duster. I applied it on three consecutive days. The combination worked very well to eliminate yellow jackets under the vinyl siding of my house.

    Tempo dust and a Dust Stick really knocks out Hornets!

    By Peter on 09/16/2015

    This is the 2nd bottle of Tempo Dust I have gotten for my Duststick in the last two years. This is the safest method for killing those White-face Hornets. Just a couple good blasts in the opening of the nest and in twenty minutes they are all gone. It's great in those holes that Carpenter Bees drill in your deck and soffits. I bought a Puffer which works best when you have to blast in a downward direction. The Duststick only works in an upward angle.

    AWESOME

    By Miss on 09/17/2015

    This stuff is AWESOME, I had a large wasp nest (basket ball size) that was partially hidden inside my garden hose reel. I used foam sprays to try to destroy it, but they couldn't get to the main part of the nest inside the spool. I used this powder ONCE and in the morning the entire nest was dead. The wasps carried the powder inside the nest on their body and wings and the whole hive was destroyed. AMAZING!

    Dust

    By Bill on 09/21/2015

    Great poduct. After a month of spraying with Black Flag and other sprays, and using Seven, one application took care of the problem in 2 nests,and the third took only a second application. Very pleased with the product.

    Yellow Jackets GONE!

    Best Yellow Jacket Killer

    By Wendy on 09/23/2015

    If you have yellow jackets, ground bees or hornets you are trying to get rid or. This is your stuff. We have yellow jackets that found a crack in our foundation and obviously loving not being able to be disturbed (aka killed). We tried so many different sprays and every time we thought we got them they were still flying in & out like an airport. A friend of ours told us about Tempo 1% dust. We tried it 1 time and they haven't been back since.

    It worked!

    By Henry on 09/30/2015

    This product killed the yellow jacket nest that was being built in the facade of my outdoor fireplace surround. I used this product after using 565 Plus XLO to freeze them and then the Tempo 1% dust to finish up the nest. Worked like a charm and no more yellow jackets.

    Great product easy to apply

    By Mark on 10/04/2015

    This is working well. The only issue was there was not any instructions on how to open the bottle or recap the bottle. The bellows duster was easy to use and I recommend buying the duster.

    Stuff works!!!

    By Will on 10/07/2015

    Had a yellow jacket nest inside the house. Made the mistake of blocking the entrance. I know I'm a dummy. Last straw was when my wife got stung siting on the couch. One flew right down her shirt. They made a new one and came into the house also. Applied Powder..worked within 16 hours. Applied it at dusk. No yellow jackets at entrance in the morning. Had 6 queens exit the nest into my home. Got those suckers!!!!! Still have stragglers and have yet to find exact location on nest as it is in the ceiling of my finished basement. When I do find it, going in the fire pit as a soaring to those other suckers. Waiting for the cold nights to come so any stragglers will be dormant.

    It works fast...

    By E-rod on 10/07/2015

    The product came as expected and was very easy to apply. Yellow Jackets had built what must have been a very big nest in a void space behind the vinyl siding next to our deck. There were dozens coming and going every time I looked or went out there. After the first application (I used an old turkey baster at night) there were only a couple of young ones moving very slowly around the entrance a few days later. I applied it again and have not seen any at all since then. I really did not want to kill them but it was either them or my family.

    Paper wasp removal

    By Gary on 04/22/2016

    Dusted the wasp sections that were living within my siding. Within the first day, there was a significant reduction in wasp activity. The next day, and up until now, the site appears to be wasp free.
