Does Delta dust do a good job on ticks? I live in South Florida where the ticlks are resistent to standard insecticides.

Have never had Ticks to contend with but can say that any insect in the Pacific North West that has come in contact with Delta Dust That I've laid down is DEAD . Long lasting superior product .

I'm in SoCal, but it seems to work on everything that comes in contact with it.

Not sure as we don't have that problem. We do have "skeeters" big enough to carry you away and it works great for them. Have not seen any ticks since I have started using.

My girls had sticktight fleas. I used the dust and spread diamataceous earth on the hen house floor every time I clean out the hen house. They will make your chickens sick and lay less eggs if you can't control them. I have not seen any lice or fleas on them since using this method.

Permethrin, acaricide like Bifen will also help control tick population. I am not sure if IGR like Precor will work on ticks but it sure worked on breaking the flea life cycle. For ticks you have to do both chemical and non-chemical methods. Habitat control is very important. Good luck!

For ticks, I have used Frontline, Advantix and Seresto and they all seem to work well. For fleas, Seresto has worked the best for my Shin-tzu.

I have had no problem with ticks in my yard since i have been using for 2 years now. On page 25 of the pamphlet that comes with the product it list ticks as one of the pest to control with a mixture of 0.07-0.15 fl. ozs. per 1000 square feet. If you do not have the pamphlet, you van view it online at http://www.controlsolutionsinc.com/data/products/other/136_BIFEN_XTS_Final_03192013.pdf Hope this helps.

They say that the Advantix 2 covers move. Like ticks, Mosquitos. It does more prevention.

I would say yes. It is an pesticide and you should follow the instructions. Make sure your hands are covered (gloves),wear a mask when applying the treatment and use a hand duster. I had a terrible infestion of carpet beetles and beg bugs and when I applied the Delta Dust and I saw a big difference in 2 weeks. They are gone and I periodically repeat a treatment. I don't want them back ever again. I like delta dust because it kills a variety of insects and pests and wasps is one of them. Use it and it will get rid of those wasps. Good luck.

After talking to the Orkin pest control man I would like to be very honest and tell you that he informed me that if you buy the 20 mule team laundry detergent and use it in cracks crevices and around your beds that it actually works better than the DE. The detergent contains BORAX which is a lot deadlier and faster to kill than the DE. Also if you have seen one bed bug then there are many more hiding!!!! You really need to get a pest control to do an inspection. These bed bugs are almost impossible to kill. I know I have been battling them for 2 years now and whenever I think I have the problem licked they come back!!!!!! Heat kills them!!

I'm not sure about it. I use this product for lice and nits. I never try to use it for ticks.

I don't know. To prevent Ticks use Permethrin on your clothes and other outdoor gear.

See the other answer. I used what I bought for treating wildlife infested with ticks. My biggest problem was getting it onto the animals.

Hard time believing Delta Dust wouldn't kill any thing that made contact . A superior pest control product . A home owner that no longer needs a professional company to keep my home critter free .

I bought 2 Pet Protector discs for both of my dogs in March. I live in Michigan and have had terrible luck preventing fleas with any type of medications I have tried. Both dogs, a beagle and a dachshund, have had no fleas or ticks since March. I am not using any other form of Flea and Tick medicine or prevention

I'm not sure about ticks. We use it for mosquitos, it seems to work for that.

I live in central Florida and this wonderful stuff kills everything in my yard, around my house, and under my house. I am guessing since it kills chiggers and fleas etc it also kills mites.
