I think it probably would, it penetrates pretty good, it would be worth a try I think. Hope it works, it is really good stuff!

It is possible since it states does kill some types of beetles although I personally doubt it being that it didn't really work for the bugs I was trying to get rid of and those bugs were listed on the box. Ive had a beetle issue prior to this current problem and I had to go to Lowes and Home Depot to get stuff strong enough to wipe them out and keep them from returning with one treatment. Good luck those critters I hope for you they do work.

buy a small $10.00 bellows duster here on amazon or at your local hardware store. put about 1/4 full in the duster. shake it up and turn the duster on it side so as not to squirt out a stream of powder. All you want is a fine puff of dust. use it around the legs of the bed and around base boards and dressers and chest of drawers. This works very well. I friend that works for a pest control company told me about this and It is the only thing I have tried that worked and this keeps on killing where liquid only kills on contact then evaporates. this also kills many other bugs as well. hopes this helps. remember just a fine puff of dust is all you want. Not a stream of white powder.

Yes it sure would! My old Pest control man in Florida used this for ant issues inside our home there. He even took off electric outlet covers and treated behind walls with this. We no longer use chemicals we use only DE for pest control with this inside and out and it works great! Just ordered a second one for my neighbor.

Grant I used the trap last year and was SHOCKED at how many 1000's of beetles were captured. My garden is 500 sq ft. I think that the efficacy of the trap has more to do with where the scent of the lure travels. If the wind was blowing away from the garden it attracted beetles from outside the garden. I would expect that if you used two traps to cover the two most prevalent winds you would get good results. I doubt that anything will keep the attractive plants bug free but any dead Japanese beetle is a good one. I don't know if the plants were helped but I felt much better emptying the trap into a large can of soapy water. ...BTW they stink when you dump out the drowned ones. Have fun!

This is made from the tiny shells of microscopic creatures. It will work on any bug or beetle with a hard shell (exoskeleton). It may take a while to notice but then it's thorough and lasts a very long time.

I'd contact the manufacturer for information. I emailed them once when I was having problems getting rid of the smell of dog urine on a wooden post. They responded quickly and the advice worked.

Anything larger than a stinkbug will not fit. It will tear up any bug that is delicate, like a moth. It is more made for beetles, small bees, small spiders, stinkbugs, etc. Any bug longer or larger than the diameter of the circle that sucks the bugs in will be damaged by the forceful suction. That defeats the purpose of the product to get bugs outside alive.

have not used any powder products, it might work with powder but I don't think so. try it and let me know how it works.

This stuff will work on any bug. It is so strong. That it is sealed inside a dissolvable bag. They producers do not even won't people to touch the mix.

Brush it on anything yellow, such a yellow bucket, hard hat, yellow posterboard, etc.. It should work.. I have been saving blue old Maxwell House coffee containers, blue buckets, to use this spring to trap yellow flies, deer flies that have been horrible the last couple of years here in coastal GA. It was amazing how well the Tanglefoot & the color blue attracted & trapped so many flies. I am talking anywhere between 400 or 500 hundred that went for the blue instead of me, or my animals. Tanglefoot is the bomb!

It worked really well for fleas and roaches so I'm betting it would work on bed bugs. It will probably take a couple weeks though because unlike fleas and roaches bed bugs can go weeks being idle. Let me know if it works, I would be interested in the results.

Insect has to crawl thru the powder to be killed. Rain or moisture will ruin the powder. No repellent effect at all. USELESS outdoors unless you pour it right on the insects' path and reapply every time it gets wet.

I don't know if it will work for wax moths, I bought it for cigarette beetles and it did not work. Cigarette beetle was not listed in the pests that this product attracts, so if moth wax is not listed I would not go for it. Just my 2¢...

I've no idea. They gassed our house so bad we threw them away after they made my wife physically ill. Don't know what they do to carpet beetles but I do know what they did to my wife. Traps in trash=wife felt better within 12 hours.

I only used this spray before the buds came out so I am not sure if it will kill the beetles. The best way I have found to get rid of them is to have all your neighbors use the Japanese Beetle traps in their yards as the traps seem to lure the beetles from everywhere.

I use this can for termites, and bore beetles that have put holes in the wood. You can also purchase Termidor to mix in a garden sprayer.

Won't work well on a static ultraviolet trap. The cartridge works efficiently only if a fan is directed to blow across it. This 'downwind' flow will bring the bugs toward the trap!
