Improper use of insecticide powder can be hazardous for both pets, and children alike. The most common mistake would be applying the dust in open areas, such as along baseboards and in cabinets. Many people use this insecticide improperly, and not only is it unsafe, it is also not approved in the label instructions and very rarely works with this type application. What happens is that the pests and bugs will simply walk around the small piles of dust, rendering it ineffective.

Used correctly, the insect-destroying powder should be applied to cracks, crevices, hiding places, and entry points, because these are the places where bugs and pests hide. These locations are also out of reach of children and pets. \”Cracks and crevices\”, and other terms that are similar, (crawl spaces, voids, attics, etc) are areas where pests are most likely to hide and breed. And thankfully, these are places where children and pets are most unlikely to come into contact with insecticide dust, sprays, baits, and other pest control materials
