Customer Reviews for Delta Dust Insecticide

Works great to keep ants away just put a border around your house and ants will not cross it I don't think it kills the ants but they do not like walking on it so they stay away from it

Product working as was expected, and I have eliminated three Hornet ground nests so far. One was an enormous nest and required three days of application, but now zero activity. Good product, doesn't drop them, but takes them out over time. The service was excellent, and delivery was slow, but it was delivered. I do however hope that in the future, another shipper will be used due to recent reports of FedX having problems with an uncertain future.

We had Yellow Jackets that entered the soffit above my garage door through a motion light fixture and nested in there somewhere. I used an insecticide spray, pointing it in the general location of the light fixture. I did this at least three times, of course to no avail. Then my husband climbed up there and sprayed into the actual hole they were entering in the base of the fixture. He did this a couple of times, but apparently the spray did not reach the nest and the bees were getting pretty irritated! Then we got serious and I watched the guy from Do It Yourself demonstrate on their website how to use Delta Dust. I ordered the product from Do It Yourself, my husband followed the video instructions, using the dust puffer and our Yellow jacket problem was solved. This product works!

I am adding this to my arsenal of products to use against the invasive insects trying to get in to the house before winter. I was able to use the video provided to learn how to apply the product. It was very useful and I appreciate the clear and concise directions on using it. Since I applied this is wall cavities, the tell tell sign of it's effectiveness will be how many bugs I see inside once the cold Pennsylvania weather kicks in. I figured since it's supposed to last for several months, applying it in September should give me plenty of leeway over the winter so I don't need to get back in to the crawl space in the cold winters to apply it again. Given it's reputation, I think it should work just fine.

Wasp had made a nest inside a soffit of a covered patio. After some research, I ordered a blower and this dust. Just after midnight I blew generous amounts of this dust into cracks and crevices of the nest entry. By noon the same day, there was very little activity, and by noon the next day, there was no activity. After a week, still no activity, caulked the entrance.

I purchased this product with the expectation that it would be effective in eliminating or discouraging yellow jackets. However, it has proven ineffective in either killing or deterring them, as they appear to be unaffected even after a 48-hour period.

I bought this powder because I wasn't sure the spray was reaching the nest of bees. The puffer works well! But I have sprayed the powder on the bees nest several times and it has done nothing to get rid of the bees.

My eaves had a small YJ nest opening making it hard to get much dust into the nest in an external wall. I applied 5+ times on different days. Took about 3 weeks to eliminate. The Long Shot Duster was nice to use for the extra reach. I also used AC foam to block other possible entrances to be sure they pass through the same opening. Also, while waiting for my shipment I reduced the colony by removing a lot of YJ with a shopvac connected to an extra downspout tied to a ladder. I ran this on and off throughout the day for several days. Other reviewers say Tempo works faster, which I didn't realize at the time, but I had patience and apparently Delta is a little safer.

At first I was concerned that the dust didn't immediately eradicate the bees and wasps but after a few days found that it worked very well to solve a problem that had been present all summer. I then bought the extended duster pole (20') and was able to resolve the problem in the hard to reach areas of the 2nd floor.

I had wasps hiding in the relief slots in my brickwork... and behind the brick... they would circulate behind the wall and exit into my screened porch. I put two squirts into each slot, within a few days - no more wasps! My only complaint is the bottle neck is not configured for angle usage, it needs to be level to get a good squirt of dust.

This product got rid of an in ground nest under a bush in my front yard. In the past I tried some foam based insecticide but it was not as effective. The power was easy to "shoot" down the hole. DoMyOwn had prompt delivery and a bit better price than other sources I checked. I may be in the market for a mole solution for my yard soon and I will check here first.

Works great for ants, water bugs and crickets. Its like a chain effect. Can get wet and it still works great.

Love, love this product! I originally purchased it to destroy a hornet's nest within the wall of my garage. It eradicated the huge nest within days. Also, I used to use a liquid product that worked pretty well around the foundation of my home to keep critters out. But I do like (as long as it's undisturbed) that Delta Dust will keep on working for months. - I'm a fan!

The price was reasonable and it worked good but the carrier fedx is terrible. Think you need to use another
