FAQs
How quickly does this product work?
The product is designed to start killing insects upon contact. Visible reduction in pest activity may be observed within a few hours to a day, depending on the species and infestation level.
Can I use this powder in my kitchen?
Yes, it is suitable for indoor use, including kitchens. Apply the powder in areas where pests are seen, such as under cabinets and behind appliances, keeping it away from food preparation surfaces and utensils.
Is this product safe for pets?
Keep pets away from treated areas until the powder has been applied and is no longer accessible. While the product is designed to be effective against insects, ingestion by pets should be avoided. Always ensure the child-resistant cap is securely fastened.

Can I use this on my vegetable patch?
It is recommended to avoid direct application on edible plants. Apply around the borders of the vegetable patch or on pathways to deter pests without contaminating produce.
Troubleshooting
Insects persist after application
Ensure the powder is applied directly to the pests' pathways and nests. Reapply if the area has been washed away by rain or disturbed. For severe infestations, multiple applications may be necessary.
Powder is difficult to apply evenly
Tap the container gently to dispense the powder. Apply in light, even layers rather than large clumps for better coverage and effectiveness.
Accidental ingestion or contact
If ingested, seek immediate medical advice. If powder gets into eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water. If irritation persists, consult a doctor.
