The search feature is down....

What have yall had success with for indoor pest control? We use cykick outside and id prefer to keep it out there. What should we use indoors to kill everything inside and any tips on how to spray it indoors? This ortho spray isnt working or me just spraying some baseboards isnt correct.

I'd be curious about the silverfish, can't seem to get rid of them.

Once silverfish are in, they're in. They're nearly impossible to get rid of. Probably would need to bomb the place periodically to get in all the nooks and crannies those buggers hide. Also, dusting with Mule-Team or plain borax seems to work. Dust along the baseboards then use something like a note card to slide it under the baseboards. On the other hand, spiders aren't too terribly bad to have around as they help control some of the other insects.

These guys have worked well for us over the last 5+ years. Reliable and affordable.

Roaches, scorpions and rats. All of the good stuff really.

Once you get it figured out, I just treat the outside of the house (foundation) with BIFEN I/T spray once a month during non winter seasons, and never see a bug of any kind in the house.

I buy the spray online, with a pump for about 40 bucks, and one ounce goes into a gallon spray bottle. The chemical lasts several years.

Does wonders on fire ants also, the mounds can be spot treated in the yard.
