    Q
    Can Tri-Die be removed?
    Hi, I hope you can help. a Pest control officer sprayed Tri-Die dust on two stumps in our back yard. We are now greatly regretting it. I had a few questions. 1. Can the pesticides be removed? 2. What is the typical spray radius, do I need to remove all surrounding shrubbery and soil? 3. What happens to the chemical once it's no longer active after 90 days?
    A

    Any insecticides applied on outdoor surfaces will eventually be removed by breaking down in sunlight and/or washed away with rainfall. Tri-Die contains natural pyrethrin, which breaks down quickly in sunlight, and silica gel, a natural dessicant that would likely be washed away quickly. The PBO synergist in the product also breaks down quickly once applied. We are not sure why the product would need to be removed from where it was applied, but you can always use a hose to water the area to remove any residual product.

    Q
    Is Tri-Die effective against carpenter ants?
    A
    Tri Die will be effective against carpenter ants if you know exactly where the nest is and can spray it directly. If this is not possible, we recommend you use a product such as Phantom Aerosol or implementing a carpenter ant baiting program. These products will be transfered or carried back to the colony so that you will be eliminating the nest and not just the ants that contact treated areas.

    Q
    Can Tri-Die be used to kill carpet beetles?
    Can Tri-Die be used to kill carpet beetles? The larvae are coming out from my baseboards and along the walls in carpeted areas. I would like a product that has a straw applicator that I can spray along my walls/baseboards.
    A
    Tri Die can be used to help eliminate a carpet beetle infestation. You should inject Tri Die into cracks
    and crevices and/or voids where these insects may be harboring. When dealing with carpet beetles it is very important to find and remove the source of the beetles to get rid of them for good. To learn more about carpet beetle elimination please take a few minutes to read our article : Carpet Beetle Pest Control
