Home Pest Control Basics
These tips will help you identify ways Bayer Advanced™ products can help control insects in and around your home. Always read the product label carefully and follow label directions.
Indoors
- Spray under sink, cabinets and large appliances in the kitchen
- Spray around baseboards, exit door thresholds, cracks and crevices
- Spray under bathroom sink cabinets and around bathroom baseboards
- Leave the Bayer Advanced™ Home Pest Control Indoor/Outdoor Insect Killer Ready-To-Spray spray undisturbed for long lasting effects that provide continuous control against pests up to four months
Outdoors
Because many insects that enter the house live just outside your door, you can treat areas adjacent to the house to help prevent the pests from entering.
- Treat exterior surfaces, especially walls covered with vines or other areas where pests might hide
- Treat the soil, lawn or walkways adjacent to your house
- Apply solution where insects can hide inside cracks and joints on siding or building materials
- Spray around door and window frames, behind gutters and around openings where utilities enter the house
- Apply along the house foundation, and under porches and decks
- Treat around woodpiles, storage sheds and outdoor trash bins
- Apply to ant hills and ant trails leading to the house
- Spray into the entrance holes of carpenter bees on wood siding, roof overhangs, tree stumps and other places where you see bees
A Word About Granules
You can also protect against many of the same soil inhabiting pests with Bayer Advanced™ PowerForce® Multi-Insect Killer Granules. Outdoors, granules offer longer residual protection than sprays. Use granules as a barrier treatment around your home, garage and outbuildings.
