CB-80 Aerosol - 17 oz. can will kill bees that contact the freshly treated area. For bees in walls, we recommend to use Tempo 1% dust. Keep in mind that you should first contact a local beekeeper if you have honey bees in your home so that the bees can be safely removed, if at all possible. It is very important that all nest materials, honey, etc. be completely removed to avoid secondary problems such as insect or mold issues or re-infestation.
CB-80 Aerosol should only be applied to cracks and crevices.

Another product you can rotate with is Temprid SC, you can also find it in our Overwintering Kit.

Insects would have to come in direct contact with CB-80 in order for them to die.
You can use CB-80 on furniture in areas that you will not be coming into direct contact with later.

CB-80 is not for use on anything edible or electronic/machinery, the label does state: Spray into cracks and crevices, processing and handling equipment, around cartons or containers and other areas where these insects tend to congregate. So only around the areas where the bins/grain are stored more to kill those insects you make contact with during application.
Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate would be a better option for spraying down bins, stored grain and other areas listed on the label as a contact kill.
While the label does state CB-80 Aerosol is highly toxic to bees, it is not specifically labeled to control them. We suggest using the products in our carpenter bee control kit.
CB-80 is a great option for knock down of flying insects. Without knowing what species of pest you are treating for or dealing with specifically, its hard to give accurate treatment information. We'd recommend looking at our Drain Fly Guide and our Fruit Fly Guide to determine which pest you are treating for, and to help locate and narrow down the primary areas/drains they are coming from in the home. The guides also go over step by step instructions for eliminating each pest, and have kits and product recommendations provided.
CB-80 Aerosol is only a contact kill & does not leave any sort of residual. It is also not intended to be used inside appliances. Roaches have to come out to eat/drink water at some point, you may consider using Advion Cockroach Bait Arena near where they are. When they come out, they will feed on it & eventually perish
CB-80 Aerosol does list small flying moths as a target insect. The product label states that when treating inside of closets, to remove all clothing and other articles before applying the product.
