We have an issue with Flour beetles (were late to notice... so these beetles appear to have spread all over the house...). Can we use this on the baseboards of our living room (hardwood floors)? Could we spray inside our (now empty) kitchen cupboards? How long should we keep the product (ortho spray) before removing it with soap water? (so we can move back the kitchen stuff within the kitchen cabinets)? Thanks,
Ortho Home Defense MAX Insect Killer Indoor & Perimeter can only be used along baseboards in kitchens , you cannot use inside cabinets. Though it is not labeled for beetles at all. Instead we would recommend our Pantry Pest Kit and also have a great guide here. The aerosol can be used as a crack and crevice treatment in the emptied cabinets around the shelves and the traps can be used to draw in and attract and trap the moths. It is critical that you inspect the area for infested items so that you can locate and eliminate the source of the infestation.
