This dual action disrupts insect digestion and damages their exoskeletons, leading to effective elimination. The inclusion of a food-grade lure specifically attracts roaches, drawing them out of hiding to encounter the powder. This combination ensures a higher success rate compared to generic pest control methods. The product is EPA registered, confirming its efficacy and safety standards for household use. **Ideal for Indian Homes, Consider Alternatives for Sensitive Areas** — This powder is excellent for targeting common household pests like cockroaches and silverfish in kitchens, bathrooms, and behind appliances. It's suitable for use in homes with people and pets when applied as directed. However, avoid direct application on food preparation surfaces or where children and pets might ingest large quantities. For areas requiring immediate, non-chemical solutions or for very sensitive environments, consider professional pest control services or alternative pest deterrents. ## How to use 1. Locate cracks, crevices, voids, and areas where roaches, silverfish, and other target pests are seen or suspected to hide. Focus on dark, moist areas like behind appliances, under sinks, and along baseboards. — Identify Pest Hiding Spots 2. Using the puffer bottle, apply a thin layer of HARRIS Boric Acid powder directly into these identified hiding spots. Avoid applying thick clumps; a light dusting is most effective for attracting and killing pests. — Apply the Powder 3. For maximum effectiveness and longevity, ensure the applied powder remains dry. Avoid applying in areas that are frequently wet or damp, as moisture will reduce the product's efficacy. — Ensure Dry Conditions 4. The powder remains effective for weeks as long as it's dry. Reapply periodically or if pest activity increases, especially after cleaning or if the powder has been disturbed or wet. — Reapply as Needed ## Product details | Field | Value | |---|---| | Active Ingredient | Boric Acid | | Active Ingredient Percentage | 62.5% | | Inactive Ingredients | Food grade lure and inert ingredients | | Allergens | None listed | | Target Species | Roaches, Palmetto Bugs, Water Bugs, Silverfish | | Application Method | Apply powder in thin layers into cracks, crevices, and voids where pests hide.
