Insect Eviction KitUpdated 8 months ago

Could this bundle replace my exterminator?

We feel confident that, if you're dealing with the Target Insects listed on this page, you can call your exterminator up and let them know you won't be needing their services anymore.

Along with the detailed instructions in your User Guides and product inserts, Dr Killigan's Customer Experience team is available to help guide you through your all-natural approach to Pest Elimination!


Is this safer than what my exterminator uses?

Dr. Killigan uses only the safest ingredients - many of which can be found in most pantries across the USA. All of our products are classified as Minimum-Risk Pest Products, meaning they contain ingredients that are recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to "pose little to no risk to human health and the environment.”

Most pest control companies use chemicals and pesticides known to be harsh and harmful to humans, not fit for consumption, and have a negative impact on the environment.

So the answer is a resounding YES! The products included in this bundle are much safer than what your standard exterminator would use. They are naturally non-toxic, and harmless when used as directed around food, pets and children.


How do I use Dust to Dust as a preventative measure?

Dust to Dust can be used proactively as a preventative against pest invasions. Simply apply the product at any and all entry points.

Here are a few common ones:

  • Outdoors, around the perimeter your home's foundation, near entry points and all other areas where insects can access your home.
  • Garage doors can also be a great space for insects to crawl through. Dust along the bottom of the walls in your garage and near the garage door tracks.
  • Attics are a common space for insects and spiders to hide out because they typically don’t see as much foot traffic and are often undisturbed. Apply the powder around the edges, and in corners, crevices and all the in-betweens.

We recommend that you monitor the areas where the product has been applied and reapply when you see it begin to fade away. Fortunately, the light color of Dust to Dust means it tends to stand out. That makes it relatively easy to see. Reapplication is key to keeping pesky invaders fully out of your home.


How do I use the Insect Buster Bulb Duster?

The Insect Buster Bulb Duster comes in a ready-to-assemble kit.

The kit includes:

  • Bulb
  • Applicator tubes: one flexible and one brass
  • Funnel
  • Steel ball

For optimal application, insert the steel ball into the bulb, along with the powder. This acts to break up any clumps that form.

The two applicator tubes are designed to help reach the varying crevices that are all around your home, ensuring you can get even the most difficult-to-reach spots.

When you're ready to use the Insect Buster Bulb Duster, use the funnel to add the insect powder of your choice. We recommend our Dust to Dust for an all-natural approach. Do not fill more than three-quarters full.

The best way to use the Duster is like using a can of spray paint: shake, aim and spray. When you shake the bulb, the steel ball inside helps to break up any clumps, so that the subsequent spray, or squeeze of the bulb, releases a puff of powder in the direction you're aiming in.


Does Six Feet Under work as a repellent?

Six Feet Under is a great two-edged sword against bugs: it kills on contact, and keeps unwanted critters away for up to 30 days!

To kill on contact, use the spray function to aim and shoot from up to several feet away.

To prevent keep bugs away from a particular area, use the mist function on porous surfaces to repel bugs for up to 30 days. We recommend targeting areas where insects may be entering your home, such as around baseboards, door and window frames, and in pantry cracks and crevices.

Six Feet Under is NOT recommended for use on skin.


What types of bugs will The Fly Inn catch?

Did you know that there are over 16,000 types of flying insects, in North America alone? That's a lot! And fortunately for us, most of them are what we call Phototactic. That means that they're attracted to light. Some of the more common ones you would find in your home are the housefly, fruit fly, gnat, garbage fly, blow fly and drain fly.

The Fly Inn is a simple mechanism designed to trap insects that are drawn to the light streaming in through our home's windows. So, in short, the Fly Inn will catch anything that flies into it, as it's sitting quietly on your window.
