Insects can be relentless in their pursuit of infiltrating your home. They'll wiggle their way through even the tiniest of cracks and crevices and act like they own the place. Dr. Killigan’s Dust to Dust Plant-Powered Insect Powder is a proven bug-busting formula made with essential-oil nanotechnology and fine silica particles. This proprietary solution is guaranteed to kill ants, roaches, fleas, ticks, silverfish, earwigs and more—all within 24 hours of contact.
Use Dust to Dust in cracks, crevices and elsewhere both indoors and outdoors to get rid of household pests. Dust to Dust can also be applied directly onto plants for a proactive solution to plant pests, such as aphids and mites.
As a preventative measure, apply Dust to Dust liberally around the perimeter of your home to stop bugs in their tracks. If you’re currently battling an insect invasion, fortify your defenses by applying Dust to Dust at and around the source of the problem. This includes nests of ants, roaches and other bugs. This powerful formula is designed to put a terminal end to a wide range of pests on contact, gradually ensuring complete freedom from insects.
Dust to Dust is formulated with nano-sized essential-oil particles and fine silica, penetrating the waxy outer layer of insects and attacking their nervous systems, resulting in death typically within 24 hours. The formula is designed as a preventative solution.
With the powder’s blend of peppermint and rosemary oils—encapsulated within silica particles—Dust to Dust provides a controlled release that stabilizes the volatile essential-oil compounds and gives them longer-lasting efficacy.
Dr. Killigan tested Dust to Dust against diatomaceous earth on various insects, including American cockroaches and fire ants. In 10 tests with American cockroaches, the average kill time with Dust to Dust was 3.9 hours, compared to 12.9 hours with diatomaceous earth. In 10 tests with fire ants, the average kill time was 5.3 hours, compared to 9.1 hours with diatomaceous earth. The tests concluded that the addition of essential oils with silica increased the potency overall and killed insects faster than traditional DE powder by as much as 70% faster.
