JT Eaton Answer Boric Acid Insecticidal Dust
JT Eaton Answer Boric Acid Insecticidal Dust is a ready-to-use professional and household insect dust containing 99% orthoboric acid for control of cockroaches, palmetto bugs, ants, silverfish, and other specifically labeled pests. The 16 oz puffer bottle allows precise placement of dust into cracks, crevices, wall voids, baseboards, and other difficult-to-reach pest harborage areas.
Unlike liquid applications, Answer Boric Acid Dust can be placed in dry voids and around electrical outlets and wiring according to manufacturer directions. The dust remains active in treated areas to provide residual pest control and is well suited for targeted indoor pest-management programs in homes and many labeled commercial and institutional locations.

Application Notes
Apply the dust lightly and uniformly into cracks, crevices, wall voids, baseboards, cabinet voids, around plumbing penetrations, behind appliances, and other areas where labeled insects hide or travel. Use only enough material to leave a light visible dusting; excessive piles should be avoided and any visible powder in exposed areas should be brushed into cracks and crevices or removed.
Do not apply directly to food, food-contact surfaces, utensils, or areas where children or pets can readily contact the product. In food-handling establishments, follow the label's crack-and-crevice and non-food-area restrictions carefully. Use the supplied puffer bottle for controlled placement in accessible voids and hard-to-reach areas.
