(1/5) Review by Jusitn F. (Posted on )Great Product!
I had some issues with carpenter ants. I found the main pathway they were using to travel in and out. I put the dust in their path and under the shingles where they were entering. Ants just started dropping out from under the shingles, curling up, and eventually dying. It's not a quick kill but it is very affective. The dust has also come in handy in my war against wasps/hornets that like to build nests on the house. One hornet was huge ( looked like a European Hornet queen). I dusted her entrance and let's just say she did not like coming home to a face full of dust! She took off with dust all over her. I can only assume she went somewhere to die cause I haven't seen her since. Thanks PM!!
(4/5) Review by Ernie B. (Posted on )Recently there were a good number of ant colonies in the basement and I couldn’t figure out where they were coming from so I sprinkled some around the corners of the basement and around the basement door and cracks and holes. I even dug a few small holes and sprinkled a little dust and ever since I used it I didn’t see any sign of ants except dead ones. I had to sweep hundreds of them! I never thought Drione dust would work this well. Highly recommended.
(5/5) Review by Eddie T (Posted on )The dust got rid of our pretty bad Silverfish problem. Worked exceptionally well!
(5/5) Review by Carlos Curtis (Posted on )The drione dust is really amazing.
(5/5) Review by Novela A. (Posted on )The DRIONE DUST-1 lb. product is superior! I used this to clean out the house before selling the house. I wanted the house to be absolutely pest-free for the next owner. Ironically, Lowe's Hardware Store didn't sell the professional products Pestmall offered to the public. So, with all research I found pestmall. Pestmall also offers the best shipping deals and the most outstanding products. I'm glad I got the DRIONE DUST-1 lb. it worked very well, and I got a great deal.
(5/5) Review by Leo Sawyer (Posted on )Drione dust can kill several pests. Ants, bees, centipedes, cheese mites, cigarette beetles and many other common household pests fall helplessly to the power of Drione dust. You can use Drione dust in commercial and industrial area, around food and non-food handling areas, apartments, hospitals, schools and other places. Keeping all that in mind I bought Drione dust and it was worth each and every penny I spent. So be sure that if you buy Drione dust it will be worth your money as well.

(5/5) Review by jen C. (Posted on )Our house has property that juts up against some wild woodlands. We have almost always had a problem with ants on our property and even in our house. We spread some of this Drion Dust around the basement and we haven’t had any ants down there since. Definitely recommended.
(5/5) Review by Kasrine Smith (Posted on )I used the DRIONE DUST (1 lb) last year and I got it from Pestmall as I always do. And as expected I got the same great results as every other time. I can always trust them with my information too. So, what is there to lose when purchasing from Pestmall? -Absolutely nothing.
(5/5) Review by Miss. Voswinkle (Posted on )I was so happy when I got the results from using the Drione Dust. I used this to kill a new cockroaches around my home. I know there wasn't a family of them living around so I thought Drione Dust would be the absolute perfect product to use!
(5/5) Review by Jerome Barbour (Posted on )Have you ever suffered from bedbug infestation? Cause I have and it is very tiresome. I tried to poison them with baits but they simply didn’t eat them. Then when I asked the local pest controlling store’s man about what to do and he suggested that I should use Drione dust and I was glad I did as he said. I was able to get rid of the bugs in 3 nights and they probably couldn’t return because of the residual effects. So I will recommend using Drione dust.
(5/5) Review by Vivian Donovan (Posted on )I had several pests getting inside the house through the cracks and crevices in the walls. I had tried applying some spray insecticides, baits and traps but none of it worked. The spray couldn’t linger on the cracks and crevices and the pests would just avoid the baits and traps. So when I had gone to a friend’s house she showed me Drione dust and sprinkled some of it with a duster on a crack. And showed me that it stays there and doesn’t stain anything when removed or give off any strong or repulsive odor. After that I tried out Drione dust at my home and within two days I couldn’t find any living pests.
(5/5) Review by Ronald Barber (Posted on )Do you think you can find an effective insecticide under $50? I used to think it was easy to find them since the net is basically crawling with them but when I actually tried out some of them I realized that I was totally wrong. And even when I tried some expensive insecticides I was proved wrong. But when I tried out Drione dust I was really happy and have not been disappointed with it. I will definitely recommend it to you.
(5/5) Review by Tommy K. (Posted on )This dust stuff killed so many ants that I was sweeping them into piles. I thought it would work but I didn’t think it would work this well. This stuff was a pleasant surprise.
(5/5) Review by Mildred Gilbert (Posted on )I am a do it yourself kind of person and I used to call exterminators for any pest problems I had but then I realized that I would never be able to be a true DIY supporter until I stopped relying on exterminators. So I asked another DIY supporter friend what he does to get rid of pests and he recommended Drione dust to me. I was really pleased to see that the instructions were uncomplicated and easy to understand. So you should definitely try out Drione dust.
(5/5) Review by Sheryl Briggs (Posted on )I am an air hostess and I am not home for several weeks at times and so there are often large infestations of cockroaches. I thought that I should try out something like Drione dust that would linger and stop the roaches from entering and kill the roaches that were already inside the house. When I was leaving I sprinkled some of the dust with a duster on the threshold of the house and on cracks, crevices, around the window sills and some other areas inside the house. When I came back I found a large number of roaches dead inside the house and also on the threshold. Highly recommended.
(4/5) Review by Kate Flowers (Posted on )I have two small kids aging between 3 and so I can’t use any insecticide which they might accidentally consume and fall ill. But Drione dust is a product that can be used around kids which is very good. I bought 2 bottles of Drione dust for $92.50 and I was really very happy. Not only were all the pests dead within the 2nd day of application but the residual effects prevented any more infestations from growing. I can recommend it to you without any hesitation.
(5/5) Review by Dana Morse (Posted on )My boss and I are happy with drione duste and will suggest it to others as well.
(5/5) Review by Calvin Blackwell (Posted on )It is a highly recommendable product.

(5/5) Review by David G. (Posted on )I live in an urban area and have always had a real problem with roaches. I had tried sprays and traps but city bugs aren’t stopped by stuff like that. I spread some of this dust around my basement and a few doorways and I have to say that I am surprised by how well it works. I wish I had learned about this stuff sooner.

(5/5) Review by Hannah (Posted on )Thanks for the fast shipping; I think you guys really understand!
(5/5) Review by Thomas Eleanor (Posted on )Drione Dust isn't messy like I thought it would be. I used it with the bellow bulb duster and it was ironically fun to use. I felt like a professional using such a professional product!
(5/5) Review by Dana F. (Posted on )My husband and I own a lot of property and have a few old outbuildings. The old barn was always infested with big nasty wood roaches. An exterminator told us that there was no way to keep them out because the area is so damp. He recommended this Drione Dust, we spread some around the barn and within a few days we were completely roach free!
(5/5) Review by SD,CA (Posted on )I love using the drione dust for my carpenter bee problem. i also use it a long the door ways and the house structure. im glad to see you guys have drione dust back it was out of stock for so long.
