Honey bees
Our home was infested with honey bees. Started in the attic, then into the bedrooms. My wife researched then bought this dust. I suited up with PPE with a decent mask and applied this powder into every quay wall in the attic and into the rafters behind the insulation. Three days later I was vacuuming up thousands of dead honey bees. Five days later I can hear no bees buzzing or flying or see dead ones at the windows. Instead of a few thousand dollars for the exterminators the money will go to the gutter guys and roofers to close up the issues there. Highly recommend this product.

Yellowjacket Killer.
Good Stuff; used it in the attic to combat yellowjackets. Dusted their point of entry into the attic and down through the wall cavity. Dusted until dust appeared along the baseboards. Did not find a nest, unfortunately, but will dust the same area at the beginning of Spring.

Slow results in my situation.
The hive is in the soffit of our home so all I can do is dust the entry/exit area every evening ( which is probably not the actual entrance to the hive). Between that and a wasp trap hung nearby their numbers are dwindling significantly. I'm in the third week of the battle.
