To kill Cockroaches, Ants, Silverfish, Spiders, Crickets, and
Earwigs: Spray infested areas including dark corners, cracks,
crevices, baseboards, door sills and frames, behind and beneath kitchen
appliances, garbage cans, plumbing and other utility installations.
Spray pests, trails, nests and point of entry.
To Kill Brown Dog Ticks: Remove bedding. Apply thoroughly
as a spot treatment to infested areas. Replace animal bedding. DO NOT
spray pets.
To Control Flies and Mosquitoes: Use only on outdoor
surfaces such as windows, door frames and other areas where pests may
enter home. Also spray dark corners, under eaves, porches, partitions,
and garages. Flies and mosquitoes coming to rest on treated surfaces
will be killed. Repeat when effectiveness diminishes.
Picnicking or Camping:
Spray the picnic table legs to keep uninvited pests away.
Getting Rid of Roaches:
Determine where roaches lay their eggs, such as the motor of your
refrigerator, kitchen drawers and cabinets, pipes under sinks, around
the hot water heater, washing machine, clothes dryer, bookshelves, glue
in book bindings, cereal cartons, and furniture structures. Keep floors
and countertops free of spilled foods, crumbs, and open packages.
Spray hiding and
breeding areas.
Preventing Insect Infestation:
Cleaning: Insects thrive on food spilled on pantry shelves and
in the cracks and crevices of cabinets, walls, and floorboards. Also
out-of-the-way places -- behind refrigerators, stoves, washers and around
pipes and toilets -- serve as hideouts for breeding. Clean these places
regularly with the appropriate products.
Food Storage: Store foods in tightly closed containers and avoid
buying dry foods in broken packages. Dispose of garbage promptly. Do
not let waste materials of any sort accumulate; they provide hiding
places for insects.
Sealing: To frustrate prospective invaders, seal cracks and openings
where insects could enter your home -- around wash basins, toilets,
pipes, electric conduits, baseboards, and floorboards.
