D-Fense Dust, manufactured by CSI, is a waterproof insecticide that controls many different species of insects such as cockroaches, silverfish, boxelder bugs, and many others that occasionally invade indoors through small cracks and crevices in our houses' structures. To stop these pests from coming in, Use D-Fense Dust to create long-lasting residual barriers in the tight, hard-to-reach spaces these pests use to invade.

It can be applied with the applicator tip on the bottle itself or it can be applied with a handheld duster to reach deep into cracks and crevices where insects hide. D-Fense Dust does not stain and is safe to apply to fabric surfaces. It also controls for insects found on various types of ornamental plants and flowers.

When insects ingest D-Fense Dust, their nervous system breaks down and causes them to perish. This dust formulation can be applied as a prevention treatment in weep holes, wall voids, and electrical boxes to keep targeted pests from finding their way indoors. No mixing or liquid sprays needed, just puff D-Fense Dust in areas where insects are found crawling for up to 8 months of protection.

Tools Needed

D-Fense Dust can be applied without tools, however, we strongly recommend you have a handheld duster with a long spout in order to treat tight spaces and hard-to-reach areas.

How to Use

Dusting in different locations with D-Fense Dust

  • Step 1: Determine how much D-Fense Dust to use by calculating the square footage of the area to be treated. To do this, measure (in feet) and multiply the areas length and width (length x width = square footage). A general treatment of D-Fense Dust should be made at a rate of 2 to 3 grams of product per square yard or 0.5 lbs. of product per 1,000 sq. ft.
  • Step 2: To use D-Fense Dust with a handheld duster, open the bottle and pour the appropriate amount of dust into the dusters reservoir volume. Close the duster, and shake to break up and distribute the product. Most dusters should come with a small iron ball or similar object to break up clumps.
  • Step 3: When ready, stick the dusters spout into the area to be treated and apply. Be sure to get an even coating on all labeled surfaces in the area. Reapply as needed depending on the magnitude of the infestation.

Where to Use

D-Fense Dust has to be applied in areas where targeted pests will make direct contact.

Indoors, you can apply D-Fense Dust around cracks, crevices, baseboards, flooring, behind wall sockets, wall voids near electrical and plumbing.

Outdoors, apply D-Fense Dust inside weepholes, around entryways, and into wall voids. You can also apply dust directly onto ant mounds.

Do not apply this product in aircraft cabins.

When to Use

D-Fense Dust can be used as part of a preventative treatment when insects try to make their way indoors. You can also use D-Fense Dust as part of an insect eradication treatment plan at any time and applied in areas where insects are seen.

Safety Information

D-Fense Dust is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling or applying this product.

Do not use D-Fense Dust on surface areas or near utensils where food is stored or prepared.

Special Considerations

Although D-Fense Dust can be used outdoors, it is not meant for large area applications. Also, apply in dry areas. If D-Fense Dust is to get wet, it will lose its effectiveness.

D-Fense Dust will provide long-lasting barriers to protect your home from invading insect pests. Most active infestations cannot be controlled through the use of one product. To prevent most infestations, you will also want to make a barrier application around your home with Supreme IT and monitor for pest activity with professional glue traps.

Roaches still alive
Not effective at all. Even after putting the 3 products. I still have roaches as soon as I turn off the lights. I've tried Raid and think it has helped a lot more than these products. I've tried other products and are more effective than products that I've bought from your company

Good product
I used this product in combination with other products to get rid of ground wasps (yellow jackets). After killing the nest, I treated every hiding hole that I could find with this stuff, and I have not seen another yellow jacket. I also got rid of a lot of other bugs that had been living in the yard.

Please remember that this is a powder ... use a mask and gloves when applying this, and be careful if you have household animals. I had no problems with this, but I did keep our dog away from the areas where this was spread.

Great Stuff!
We were over run with the "beasties" (german cockroaches) as medical conditions prevented us from treating for over a year. We applied this in every crevice, nook and cranny along with spraying Nibor D on all walls/ceilings and placing growth inhibitor traps. Three weeks in and now I can cook again without fear of being swarmed! (It had gotten this bad!). This product definitely works and gives us comfort knowing it is a permanent solution. Highly recommend!

An ounce of prevention ;-)
I bought a bottle of this and it's so potent that just having it under the sink has scared them dead.

No, seriously, though :-)
I haven't had to use it so that's a good thing.
It's there if I need it.

Great and effective product
There were bees by my front door. I couldn’t find the beehive because the bees made it through a small crack under the house. This product was put into the crack and squeezed 1-2 times the same evening. Within 1-2 days the bees were gone and it’s been over a year!

  1. Q:What is good to get rid of Tiny ants?
    3/18/23
    A:Tiny ants is a large term that can be associated with many ant species. First, you would have to determine the ant species which can be done with our DIY ant guides or you can simply bring the ant in a sealable plastic container to one of our store locations for proper identification by a Solutions employee. Careless identification can lead you to using the wrong or ineffective insecticides, which can be a waste of your time and finances. https://www.solutionsstores.com/ant-control

  4. Q:Can this dust be used with Novacide spray on carpets to kill fleas?
    11/9/22
    A:Yes, they can be used together but keep in mind that D-Fense Dust Insecticide can be applied to rugs, but not carpet. In residential areas do not apply D-Fense Dust as a broadcast application to floors or floor coverings. To increase Novacide Flea & Tick Killer effectiveness, vacuum carpeted areas and other areas being treated before treatment and post treatment after drying. It would be best to spray a small area of the carpet before full treatment to test for color fastness, or dulling.
