    FANTASTIC PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO MORE BEE's

    By Bina-bina on 07/01/2016

    Honey Bee's zapped the 1st TIME! Unbelievable!!! Thousands of Honey bee's nested in my stucco column, which was only accessable through the top of the column ... Tempo dust was recommended to me, purchased the product, waited until very early morning, used "TEMPO" .. and Sha-ZaMMM! Gone! I "highly" recommend this product for bee's and wasps!!

    Works for Yellowjackets in siding

    By Mark on 07/20/2016

    Have had a few times, over 10 years, yellowjackets building nest inside my siding in my house. I used retail killers and foam sprays. None worked to eliminate the nest, just mass kill and then the YJs would just make more of themselves and I would have just as many swarming around my house in a week. My last infestation I had delta dust on hand and tried that at the two entry points. It seem to reduce the number but after 5 days they were still very active. I decided to order what DMOPC recommended Tempo Dust. I applied with a duster, pole and gotcha attachment late night when all the critters were relaxing. Figure it would take a few days to see results. Next afternoon no YJs. They were gone. If you have the same problem that I had this is THE STUFF! IT WORKS.

    Fantastic

    By Ken on 03/30/2017

    Just dusted the many holes in the boards around my screened in porch today at my cabin in SC. It was a pleasure just sitting there inside the screen and watching those carpenter bee crawl into the holes and come out almost singing My God to Thee before they died. Within the first hour, killed 7 carpenter bees.

    Works great!

    By George on 05/08/2017

    A great product. Bought to get rid of carpenter bees, two rounds with the bulb and they're gone! Also had an issue with Red wasps entering by a window. Nothing I'd tried got rid of them until I used Tempo. Two doses and apparently the nest has been eliminated, no more wasps! So I decided to try it inside since we had an occasional roach. Puffed under stove, fridge, dishwasher and sink cabinet. For the next week we were sweeping up dead roaches, problem was much worse than we thought. One application, no more roaches. FYI this stuff goes a looooooong way, it doesn't take much. I highly recommend it!

    Works Like a Charm

    By C. on 07/01/2017

    We had yellow jackets that had built a nest in the bottom portion of an outside wall of our house. No way to get the regular spray up in the wall. So, pushed some gravel up to the edge of the hole they were going in, dusted the gravel (they just about had to land on it to get into the nest). Two days later, I saw maybe two yellow jackets and after that didn't see them again. Also, used it at the bottoms of columns on the front of the house to keep the wasps from building nests there. Haven't seen any since I did the treatment there. A little apparently goes a long way. Quick delivery, and I have plenty of the dust left (over 90% of it is still in the bottle) for future occurrences should they happen. I bought the least expensive of the dusters and it works fine. You may want to wear a mask when you are dusting. I had a real headache after applying it, and I was outside. :)

    Great Stuff

    By Norm on 08/27/2017

    Rather than pay the $200 + exterminator bill to rid a yellow jacket nest in the bottom hollow of a standing flower box like I did last year, thought I'd try this stuff with a bellows duster also purchased at this site. Waited until it was dark, put the nozzle in the entrance crack the jackets were using, squeezed the bellows can two times quickly and ran. Checked back about an hour and a half later, no activity, no dead ones near the entrance. Next morning, the same....nothing. The nest had been completely annihilated. More than two weeks later and I still have a hard time believing that it was so easy. Saved nearly $200 over the exterminator!

    This stuff is great

    By Gregg on 08/27/2017

    I tried the brand name hornet spray and it works on contact but, won't kill all the hornets in the ground. I just puffed the powder around the opening and in 1 day they were all dead. Be careful, very lite, wind will blow it around before it hits the ground.

    great anti-bee and wasp product

    By Rob on 09/01/2017

    This stuff really works. It's a dust that gets into the cracks and crevices where wasps love to hide. After a couple of days...all gone! Make sure you buy the bulb duster for easy application.

    It Worked!

    By Chck on 07/01/2018

    After identifying my problem as Indian Meal Moths, DoMyOwn suggested three products. This was one of them and it worked great. Took just a couple days and I saw a huge improvement, a big drop in the number of moths seen. Over a couple weeks, coupled with the sticky traps and the hanging strips I think they are completely gone.

    Stinkbug and Wasp Invasion

    By Gretchen on 04/17/2020

    In the fall I had wasps that had nested in the walls of my mobile home. I applied the Tempo Dust in every crack and crevice and along the windows where most insects will fly inside and outside. Also into the outside soffits. Safe for pets was great. Took about 2 weeks but suddenly stopped seeing wasps in the house and the outside was now safe for roofers. Puffed Tempo all around the deck and porches during the Stinkbug invasion. Hundreds of bodies overnight littered the floor. Very impressed with the ease of use, its safety for pets and the months that it keeps working when kept dry.

    This is him!!!!

    By Arlecia on 07/23/2020

    Verified Purchase

    I am a 29 year old woman and I had an yellow jacket infestation. They were entering through my oven exhaust vent and were making holes in my pantry wall. I began to notice dead yellow jackets all around my kitchen! Freaked me the hell out. Called the local pest control who wanted to charge me $150. Tried to foamy bee spray, waste of money. Began doing some research and ran across this product. Got this and a puffer. Suited up to avoid any stings and waited to about 8:30 in the evening to spray in the went. The next day there were only two dead Y.J.s. The day after, none. I sprayed 3 days after since it rained just to make sure the good deed was done. I haven't seen anymore yellow jackets. I am so thankful for this product. Be sure to refer to the safety measures prior to dusting. I saved a pretty penny and have a lot more of the product left. Great buy. You will not be disappointed.

    Works great for yellowjackets

    By Steve on 08/14/2020

    I was skeptical about using a powder instead of a spray to kill an in-ground yellowjacket nest. I needn't have been. This stuff worked great! Follow the directions, locate the nest entrance, go back in the dark and use a dust puffer to distribute the powder in and around the entrance, then get away. Come back the next day, they're gone. The dust gets carried back into the nest and gets them all. Highly recommended!

    Works Great! Apply at night and use a Work Light Stand.

    By Eric on 08/28/2020

    I was a little concerned reading that the Tempo 1% doesn't stop yellow jackets or bees instantly on contact. However, my liquid insecticide was not stopping the yellow jackets from occupying their nests either! I had a yellow jacket nest at two different properties. A) One nest was in a crack under a concrete patio. At 11 PM, I applied dust with the B & G Bulb Duster 1150. Not a single yellow jacket came out. The next morning, there was zero activity from the nest! However, after about 1.5 weeks, they are back. I assume young yellow jackets hatched from nest. I read this was common. I should have re-applied Tempo 1% 1 week after the 1st application before they showed up again. So I will re-apply the Tempo 1% again. B) The 2nd nest was in the aluminum soffit of a house. At 1 AM I set up a halogen work light stand to shine on the soffit. I forgot to bring the extension tubes for the bulb duster so I duct taped 2 plastic drinking straws onto the bulb duster and that worked great. FYI, because I was applying dust over head...I wore safety glasses and a breathing mask. I puffed the dust into nest entrance hole of soffit and more dust through the vent holes of the soffit. This time the yellow jackets came out very angry but also somewhat weak from the dust. They attacked the very hot work light and never saw me standing on a step ladder nearby! The next morning, zero activity at the nest and a lot of burned yellow jackets below light stand! I will re-apply Tempo 1% on this nest again to prevent new activity from starting up. I never got stung and am very pleased with the performance of the Tempo 1%!

    Excellent!

    By Alex on 09/25/2020

    I had a severe case of yellow jackets that seemed to have created a home within our brickwork. Everyday, I would see probably 100s leaving in and out of the small crevice. Finally, I decided to buy this and it worked after one application!! Of course we used about half the bottle but it was well worth it!!

    Killed Yellow Jackets in Our Soffit

    By Jon on 10/09/2020

    Yellow jackets found a spot in the soffit that we couldn't reach. Got the tempo dust and bellow. Blew it in there late in the evening. Over the next two days there were dozens of dead ones on the ground and no signs of life. Used it again in our stone wall over the weekend with the same results.

    Works the First Time

    By Mjg on 10/10/2020

    I recently purchased Tempo 1% Dust and a bulb duster to kill a Yellow Jacket nest in my soffit based upon other reviews. It was a very active and large nest that made going to the front of our house hazardous. I tried a foaming spray twice and while it slowed them down within a few days there was a lot of activity again. I waited until dark and dusted the main entrance and multiple other spots with Tempo 1%. The next morning there was no yellow jackets coming to or from the nest. Complete eradication! As long as you wait until an hour or so past dark when they were all in the nest you should have no problems. In fact, I only saw one fly from the nest while dusting and it was white from the dust I had sprayed. I watched it nose dive into the ground after a few feet of flying. Save yourself time and money by hiring an exterminator and purchase this immediately. You will have plenty of product left over for future problems.

    Works Well - Takes Approximatley a Week to Work

    By George on 09/17/2021

    Works well

    By Walter on 09/17/2021

    I was pleased with the effectiveness of the poison, but would caution users to apply it sparingly. I gave some yellow jackets in the wall of my house 4-5 squirts and it forced a few inside of the house. Smaller, spaced applications over days might have avoided this problem. Otherwise a very satisfactory result.
