SPRAYER DESCRIPTION: The Power Injector is a 32 oz Tank fitted with an Aerosol producing sprayer. It’s very easy to use and allows the user to make their own aerosols. The sprayer comes with 3 nozzles; one for a fine mist, one for a heavy mist and one for the red injection straws seen in the picture to the right. The tank can be powered up to 90 psi safely so when needed, you can use it to reach deep into wall voids, wood beams and behind home siding with power never before available. You can also create mixtures using either water or BASE OIL so no longer are you restricted or limited to “old fashioned” actives found in all “ready to spray” aerosols.
BENEFITS:
- SAVE $ – Now you can eliminate the need to keep buying costly aerosols like MULTIPURPOSE or FS MP. The savings are DRAMATIC (see below)
- CREATE BETTER MIXTURES – Now you can mix and apply products like BITHOR and MAXXTHOR from a can.
- INCREDIBLE PENETRATING POWER – The Power Injector can handle up to 90psi safely and with the help of BASE OIL, you can penetrate WALL VOIDS and HOME SIDING like never before.
WHAT’S INCLUDED: The Power Injector comes with everything you see in the picture to the right:
- Aerosol Spraying Top
- 3 Nozzles including a fine mist, heavy mist and crack/crevice straw nozzle with 10 straws
- 50″ Injection Tube for deep treatments
- Handy Can Spray Attachment
- Washers, Replacement Valves and special Tool for valve replacement
- Two 10 ml Eye Droppers (one for Water Based Concentrates and one for Oil Based Concentrates)
- Steel Tank
This short video summarizes what the Power Injector will do and why using it in place of any aerosol can makes sense.
EASY SETUP: The Power Injector is super easy to use.
- TEST SPRAYER FIRST! Use nothing but water for your first use to get acquainted with the sprayer.
- Next, secure the Sprayer top. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN! The top will easily seal using nothing but your hands to twist it tight. If you didn’t tighten it enough, air will leak out when you charge the tank which is normal and won’t be a danger! And its better to not tighten it enough compared to over tightening it which can damage the seal. Light to medium effort should be all you need to secure the top.
- Once secure, take the sprayer outside and use any standard tire pump to charge the tank. It only takes a few pumps using any bicycle tire air pump. You can also use an air compressor or a compact hand held tire pump like the one seen in our video.
- Charge to 20 psi and try spraying with different nozzles so you can find one that fits your application need.
MIXTURE RATES AND COST
BITHOR: To create a Bithor mix, add 16 oz of water to the spray tank and 1/4 oz of Bithor. For surface spraying baseboards or walls, the recommended PSI is 20-25 lbs. For crack and crevice treatments using the straw, use 30-40 psi to start and adjust from there. At this rate (equal to 2 oz per gallon of water), now you can create cans of Bithor for JUST $.80 PER 16 oz CAN!
MAXXTHOR EC: To create a Maxxthor mix, add 16 of water or BASE OIL to the spray tank and then 5 ml of Maxxthor EC. This is a very small amount and why we include the eye dropper which holds about 10 ml. The cost of 5ml of Maxxthor is less than $.50. Base Oil costs $7.50 for 16 oz so now you can create cans of Maxxthor EC for LESS THAN $8.00 PER 16 oz CAN! This is less than 1/2 the cost of FS MP AND yet it will be STRONGER and ODORLESS!

This is awesome. Now that there is a way to get Maxxthor into crevices inside and it can be diluted in either water OR base oil, when would you recommend using Bithor instead? Only for wider scale surface treatments?

Mike,
The way it looks, the Power Injector tool will make treatments not only less costly and more powerful, less confusing! Here’s why.
Lets say you have pests inside and outside. Your best options in the past would be Maxxthor Granules and Spray for outside and for inside, Bithor and at least 1 Aerosol for cracks and crevices. And if you had small pests that like to nest deep in wall voids or behind home siding, you’d probably end up needing Xempt Dust, a duster and then for inside, a Mini Mister. But with the Power Injector, things get a lot easier. It will eliminate the need for these other tools and chemicals.
So if you get the Power Injector and use it for the same pests as in the example above, you’d only need the Maxxthor Granules, EC and Bithor. Why? Because the Power Injector will let you mist Bithor just like you might with the Mini Mister. This means you can use it to lightly mist sensitive areas you might not want to spray with a pump sprayer. But it can also be used to inject cracks and crevices in place of FS MP if your target pest needed that application. And you’ll get to choose if you want to use Bithor or Maxxthor for those treatments, both of which will be much stronger compared to the actives found in cans like FS MP or Multipurpose.
As for your question; you are spot on in line with what you are thinking. First, you can now use Maxxthor with water or Base Oil (with Base Oil elevating Maxxthor to be the ultimate weapon). But you’ll still need Bithor. First, it is truly odorless making it best for inside. Plus it has all the proper labeling Maxxthor for inside does not have. This means for anyone with pests in their carpet or on furniture, they can use the Power Injector with the misting nozzles to lightly mist surfaces evenly, without making a mess. Pretty much just like the Mini Mister will do.
But Bithor is also best for any other surface like baseboards and walls too. Here’s why. Maxxthor is very repellent. For outside treatments, that’s awesome because it will both quickly kill and repel insects so they don’t want to come back onto your home. This means less will come inside AND that means less will move behind home siding.
But you shouldn’t be using Maxxthor inside as a surface spray. Remember, Bithor is non-repelling, which is polar opposite compared to Maxxthor. This is why its the best option for use inside. So when used on baseboards, walls, carpets, etc, pests won’t know its there. This means pests will move over it picking some up, sharing it, etc. This would not happen with Maxxthor which would only scatter pests. In the end, Bithor will effectively stop anything from spreading throughout living spaces and why it will still be part of the equation. But for cracks and crevices, Bithor could be used if you had a “mild” issue and wanted nothing but a water based, odorless option. And it would be better compared to FS MP or any other crack and crevice aerosol since the actives in Bithor are better.
But if you needed something stronger, then Maxxthor EC with water will reach about twice as deep with the Power Injector due to the power you can use. And if you mix it with Base Oil? Now it will reach over 5 times as deep compared to any oil based aerosol! This is a huge improvement and literally a game changer.
Lastly and what I would call a “side note”; we are getting questions about when to use Base Oil. The answer here is all about where you are treating and if the problem is ongoing. So if you have an ongoing issue and its coming from a wall void or from around a door frame AND you’ve been injecting cracks and crevices with something like FS MP, it’s probably time for Maxxthor and Base Oil. Why? Because if pests are coming back after using FS MP, it means you are not reaching the source, where they are nesting. Pests like termites, powderpost beetles, springtails, clover mites, carpenter ants and some other will live INSIDE wood beams. And though FS MP can penetrate wood up to 1″, Base Oil can penetrate over 2″. This means it will move deeper into wood members to reach nesting pests better and deeper. Add to that the extra PSI of the Power Injector and our tests show Base Oil and Maxxthor EC injected into the same cracks or crevices as FS MP will end up moving in over 5 times deeper. This extra penetration means there is a much greater chance to reach your target pest AND with Maxxthor as the active (a much stronger one compared to any other aerosol), you should now be able to eradicate your issue instead of just managing it.
Many of our customers have pests that are living hidden inside structural members like 2×4’s, 2×6’s, under sill plate or behind home siding. And up till now, reaching them has been challenging. But with the Power Injector, there is hope!
