Alpine Dust, manufactured by BASF, contains the active ingredients dinotefuran and diatomaceous earth to provide an efficient knockdown and residual effect.
After insects crawl over the dust they will die within 24 to 48 hours. It is used to control a wide variety of insects found indoors and outdoors. Alpine Dust is a great crack and crevice treatment to eliminate cockroaches, ants, and more.
When used with a handheld bulb duster, Alpine Dust can be applied deep into harborages reaching the toughest pests.
Tools Needed
To apply Alpine Dust, a handheld duster or power duster is recommended. The insect dust can be applied with the applicator tip that comes on the bottle, but may not puff dust deep enough into crack and crevice or wall void areas.
How to Use
- Step 1: Locate areas where insects are traveling and hiding and then calculate the size of the area you wish to treat in square feet. To do this, measure (in feet) and multiply the area length and width (length x width = square footage). Alpine is recommended to be applied at a rate of 0.16 oz. to 0.32 oz. per 10 sq. ft. of area. For if the total area of the sites you wish to apply the Alpine is 100 sq. ft. you would need between 1.6 to 3.2 oz. of Alpine Dust.
- Step 2: Open the cap on the top of the bottle. Alpine can be applied either via the applicator tip on the bottle or a handheld bulb duster can be used. If the bottle is being used, squeeze the bottle to puff the dust out while the tip is pointing or inserted into the areas needing treatment.
- Step 3: If a handheld bulb duster is being used, turn it upside down, remove the cap, and fill the compartment halfway with dust. Place the cap back on, turn right side up and insert the tip of the duster into areas needing treatment, while squeezing the bulb to puff the dust.
- Step 4: The dust will last for several months if not disturbed. Applications can be made as needed.
Where to Use
Alpine Dust can be applied to indoor areas as a crack and crevice around baseboards, headboards, box springs, window sills, doorways, and other areas where insects hide. It can also be applied as a spot treatment in wall voids, on shelving, garbage rooms, storage closets, cabinets, under appliances, and other areas where insects hide or crawl.
Alpine Dust can be applied to outdoor areas as a crack and crevice or spot treatment around doors, window sills, and used as a spot treatment in wall voids around plumbing and in weep holes, areas with mulch, and more.
This product is ideal for use in homes, hotels, hospitals, office spaces, warehouses, and more.
Do not apply Alpine Dust on mattresses, pillows, human or pet bedding, pets, rooms being occupied by students or medical patients, wet areas, where dishes are kept, and where food is prepared or stored.
When to Use
Alpine Dust is ideal to use when treating crack and crevice or wall void areas to kill various types of insects.

| Keith's Pro Tips | "When using a duster, you can control your dusting application by the way you hold the duster. Holding the duster upright gives the strongest puff of dust, holding it sideways lessens the strength somewhat, and holding the duster upside down puffs out even less dust." |
| Product Drawbacks | Using Alpine Dust alone is not effective against a bed bug infestation. When eliminating bed bugs we recommend using Flex 10-10, Pyrid Aerosol, along with an insect growth regulator (IGR) with the dust. |

Alpine dust
I had yellow jackets building a major nest between 3 field mice holes! I used regular and jet style bug killer jetting in the holes as well as saturating the area. I killed many this way but was just fighting a losing battle. I even used one of those gopher smoke bombs without much result. I did have some fun but needed to take care of this huge nest. I asked a professional pest expert that treats an older high rise downtown where I engineer and he recommended this Alpine dust. When I opened up the container and seen this baby powder looking stuff I thought "come on". Followed directions and just after sunset I puffed deep into 3 holes (you know they're connected when you puff one and smoke comes out another) and dusted the whole area around the openings. To my happiness I saw no action for 4 days then saw them again. Here we go I thought, and did the same thing during the day (not recommended) because I was pissed I wasted my money. That did it, have not had any action for over 3 weeks now. Thanks to my guy at work and the "Solutions" people, they know what they're doing. Call them and they will help!!!

Q:Is this deadly to pets?5/8/18A:Alpine dust is meant to be applied in areas that are out of the way of pets, so it should never come in contact with them. But if they ingest the alpine dust it could make them sick depending on the volume.
