SURFACE SPRAYING VS CRACK AND CREVICE TREATMENTS | BUGSPRAY

If you’ve got CLOVER MITES, SPRINGTAILS, PSOCIDS or BOOKLICE, you’ll need to penetrate the voids where they are living to stop the issue of seeing them coming out. Many of our customers start treating with Maxxthor outside and Bithor inside and then start seeing dead bugs. But after a week of finding more and more dead, they question why aren’t they all dead at once? The quick answer is that they’re living and nesting deep in the home, so deep the surface spray isn’t reaching their key nest sites. And until you reach them there, they will continue to emerge. And yes, the previous treatments will kill them as you can see BUT you should expect this pattern to go on indefinitely until you finally reach their nests and kill them all or they stop reproducing at levels that cause them to migrate out seeking new homes.

Remember, all these small pests will thrive under home siding like vinyl, aluminum, cedar shakes or stucco. If you’re having ongoing issues on the outside of your home and you have any of these home sidings, you’ll need to consider applying XEMPT DUST to get rid of them for good.

And if the issue is inside, the baseboards and windows are usually key areas to treat. For these smaller pests who slowly migrate into living spaces, you’ll have to get our FS MP AEROSOL and work over every crack and crevice you can find.

This first video gives you the overview of what we mean so watch it first.

This next video shows how to treat a window. Watch this next and use the methods and techniques detailed to treat any doors they’re using for nests too.

FS MP will work its way to most key nests sites within 3-4 weeks but if the problem is still active after a month, you may need to dust the wall void with Xempt Dust too.

So for the following pests, be sure to use the FS MP Aerosol to thoroughly treat all their “pocket” nests inside the home and if the problem is still active after a month, consider doing some dusting for a more permanent solution. Our dust will last 1-2 years making it ideal for these voids and long term protection.
