FAQs
Can I use this near my vegetable patch?
It is not recommended to use this product directly on edible crops or plants intended for human consumption.
Is this safe for honey bees?
No. This product is toxic to bees and should not be used in areas where bees are foraging or have their hives.
How much powder should I use?
Apply enough to cover the entrance hole thoroughly. A visible pile of powder at the entrance is usually sufficient for standard nests.
Do I need to wear protective gear?
Yes. It is highly recommended to wear long sleeves, gloves, and eye protection to prevent stings.
Will this work on hornets?
The product is designed for wasps; check the label specifications if you are dealing with a different species of stinging insect.
Can I treat a nest that is high up in a tree?
This product is best for nests where you can safely reach the entrance. If the nest is high up and difficult to access, please contact a professional.
Troubleshooting
Wasps remain active after application
Ensure the powder was applied directly to the entrance. It may take 24-48 hours for the full effect to reach the entire colony.
Powder is clumping due to moisture
Ensure the nest entrance is dry before application. If the area is damp, the powder will not be as effective at coating the wasps.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Highly effective permethrin-based formula
- Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications
- Easy-to-apply fine powder consistency
- Reliable for targeting specific nest entrances
Cons
- Requires careful handling to avoid colony agitation
- Not suitable for use near bee habitats

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure the nest entrance is identified clearly. Use the product directly from the container to dispense the powder into or around the hole. Avoid using this product near ponds, streams, or other water sources to protect aquatic life. Store the container in a cool, dry place, securely capped, and out of reach of children or pets. Always wear gloves during use and wash hands thoroughly after application. If you have any doubt about the size or location of a massive or inaccessible nest, consult a professional pest control service rather than attempting to treat it yourself.
