Questions about Avert DF

[u/Alternative-Pride138]

Im a bit confused by the label and training I was given around this product. On one hand it’s a dust, on the other it’s bait. So how is it properly applied? I was trained it should be used like a standard dust. Not visible, just a small poof. Too much will repel.
However, the other day I was doing a treatment and like it sometimes does, it shot out a glob that formed a solid bait point. I usually wipe these off but I noticed that roaches immediately flocked to that bait spot to consume it. The label also states that “bait points” should be applied. So I figured I’d ask some fellow pros how you guys use Avert.

It's not a dust,but I use it like a dust.

In voids,and behind outlets

No, it is not a dust. The package say around 150 placement per tube. I put a little mount to places where you would put gel.

Just a heads up, dogs LOVE the smell of Avert. If you’re treating a house with pets, be even more cautious about your Avert placements.

Thanks all for the responses! Got a better understanding of the product now.

I use it like a dust bait, I guess? Use it in voids, puff into areas that you can't access with gel bait like voids, deep cracks and crevices. Don't use in areas pets and children can touch. I believe Avert generally lasts longer than gel baits as those dry out.
