David -

I wish we had it in the U.S. for use on bed bugs.  The pyrethrins in
Drione are repellent.

Thanks, David.  Is Agrodust silica gel or diaomaceous earth?

Drione has not been available in the UK.for some years.

Agrodust is available, but does not contain pyrethrins so is classified
as pesticide-free and not is restricted by pesticide regulations.

Drione dust (a combination of pyrethrins and finely-divided silica gel)
is an excellent choice.  The pyrethrins eventually disappear, but the
silica gel will act as a dessicant dust=2 0for years.  It is readily
available from any pest control supply house, which supplies the pest
management industry.

Hello,

 

We currently have an infestation of Reesa Vespulae in one of our mammals
cases. We’re taking all the specimens out to be frozen, the props will
be removed and case will be cleaned thoroughly. However the case is
quite problematic as there are huge voids underneath and behind that are
not easily accessible. I’m going to attempt to clean these areas while
the specimens are out, but I’m wondering whether some desicc ant dust or
insecticide spray would be a good idea to prevent the pests returning.
Does anyone have any recommendations? 

 

Many thanks,

Abby
