Bug Treatment Powder Duster/Large Diatomaceous Earth Bulb Duster/Powder Applicator/Garden Applicator/Bulb with Long Copper Tube for Indoor and Outdoor Insect Treatment Blue

For some background, I've been fighting with carpenter bees. For some reason they've been multiplying in numbers the last 5-10 years, and turning all my stuff into Swiss cheese. I've tried the wood+glass traps with limited success; I get a few bees per week, but after 4-5 years of having them hanging, I wasn't getting more than a few dozen per season. So I decided instead of using a passive approach of hanging traps near their hotspots, I'd be a bit more proactive. They seem to repurpose the holes year after year, going deeper and deeper into the house, deck, fence posts and anything else, so I decided to dust the holes. HUGE DIFFERENCE in effectiveness! When looking at applicator products, I knew I wanted something with a latex base and metal tip to mist food-grade, harmless-to-human Diatomaceous Earth ("DE") up into every bee bore hole I could find. While it's a little cumbersome to fill, and becomes slightly less effective at misting when it's less than half full, it does a beautiful job of misting the DE up into the holes. Within a day, I started seeing carpenter bees laying around the yard, finely misted in white dust, dying. It was quick! What usually Best part is: No chemicals harmful to me, pets, or other wildlife. No issue of collateral damage to other pollinators like mason bees or honey bees. And because the bores are protected from the elements, the dust stays up there and keeps working. I'm 3 months out from lacing the 60-70 holes I could find, and my boring season this year, which normally lasts through August, is already over. My kids have noticed already, they're annoyed and/or scared of the hovering carpenter bees all over the yard ... it's rare to go outside and see one anywhere this year. If you're having similar problems with carpenter bees, you want to get a grip on it, and you need a simple but effective product you think will last a few years (although I don't see myself needing to re-apply based on how effective it's been!) this is definitely a product I'd recommend time and time again. Although, with these all-caps-random vendor names who knows if "YIBAO" will still exist by the time this thing wears out, if ever!

This is an awesome item. I find that isaving me money by spreading a fine coat in the areas I need it. The other thing I was using just dumped clumps everywhere. This one is easy to fill and it's very easy to use. I have very small hands and this does not hurt when I squeeze the bulb. It is perfect for getting into small areas. The item is set up so that you can replace the bulb by unscrewing the strap and put on a new one. The long piece that comes from the bulb it's about a foot long so you actually can put it in places you can put the dust in the powder that you want to get rid of bugs. It enables you a Long reach which is good. I highly recommend this product my opinion it's the best one on the market. Highly recommend

Put this in my house bought this from my house feel cockroaches. Now I only see them in the place where I didn’t put them like bathrooms in the kitchen very good though, but very careful that you should not put the severe pets or children that are not over the age where they can think properly God bless

Can be a little tedious to load and refill, but works very well.

I use this to direct the diatomaceous earth I use in my planters to kill anything crawling. It puts a puff of dusting in tight corners without it flying everywhere. Still use a mask when using it. Diatomaceous earth kills ants, bedbugs and most crawly things too It says so on the package. Although It is safe and some folk eat it. Agh! 🤮If you have seafood allergies beware. It is made from crushed shell of marine life into a fine powder that gets into the exoskeleton of bug and dries them out. I wonder could I use this to this on my body and fill it with my Goldbond Comfort powder? Always trying to find another way to get use out of stuff.🤑

Where has this tool been for the last 50 years? Love everything about it. And it seems to be well made. This is perfect for dusting around (and behind) household plumbing and all the cracks you can find including weep holes for those who have brick homes. I fricking love that there is no one damned digital thing about it!

It works well if you are willing to fill the rather small reservoir through a rather small opening. I ended up just sprinkling the stuff (diatomaceous earth) out of the bag.

I picked up this Bug Powder Duster to treat a few stubborn areas around the house with a powder pesticide. First off, it came with a collapsible funnel and a measuring cup, which was a really thoughtful touch. Filling it up was totally hassle-free. No mess, no wasted powder....just pour, close, and go. Once loaded, I gave it a squeeze and was surprised by how much powder it delivered with minimal effort. It gets the product deep into cracks, crevices, and holes, exactly where pests love to hide. The nozzle was long enough to get into tight spaces, but not so long that it was awkward to handle. The duster itself feels sturdy and well-made, and I get the sense it’ll hold up well over time. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with bugs and using powdered pesticide.

Works great for small crevices

I really love this little device, it’s made of good quality materials holds a good amount and works really well! Sunglasses for scale

Added some Diatomaceous Earth with Pyrethrin insecticide and ran it along my baseboards. No more carpet bugs this season.

Helped a neighbor spray her antique chair tip made it easy to get powder into crevices
