  • Asked by Ashley from Tampa, Fl

    Q
    How long does Arilon Insecticide take to get rid of roaches?
    A

    Arilon Insecticide is labeled for roaches, and should do a great job toward helping you eliminate the infestation. We would also recommend that in addition to an insecticide like Arilon that you also use a high quality roach bait gel such as Invict Roach Bait Gel to help get the roaches that hide in places where you cannot spray (cabinets, counter tops, drawers) as well as an insect growth regulator such as Gentrol Point Source to help stop the breeding cycle of the roaches.

    Arilon is a residual which means it will not be a contact kill for the roaches. It could kill a roach within a few hours or within a day or so depending on such factors as how healthy the roach is, and how long it spent on a treated surface. The spray will typically last indoors 90 days and outdoors 30 days, but for an active infestation you would want to retreat every 30 days indoors until the colony is eliminated. 

    We would recommend that you look over our article on How To Get Rid of Roaches as well if you have a moment.

    Q
    Does Arilon Insecticide kill bedbugs?
    A

    Arilon Insecticide  is not labeled to treat for Bed Bugs. This is a great product for listed pests, but it works by ingestions, and bed bugs do not have the same feeding habits as pests listed on the Arilon label, such as ants and roaches. We recommend to check out our Bed Bug Guide for the most effective tips and videos to treating for Bed Bugs. It takes more than one product to eliminate bed bugs, sSo we have put together very effective Bed Bug KIts.

    Q
    What is the best product for an inside residential treatment?
    We have been using Arilon for some time and it seems to work well but I am curious if there is any other pesticide that covers more pests that would work just as well or better.
    A

    Arilon is a fantastic product, but if you are looking to treat more insects Phantom would be the way to go. Phantom uses the same non-repellent technology but will cover more insects.

  • Asked by David from Indianapolis, Indiana
    08/13/2014
    Q
    How does a cockroach pick up a lethal dose of Arilon Insecticide?
    Oh so how does Arilon Insecticide compare to Demand CS, which is picked up via Contact correct? How does the cockroach die with Arilon? Thank you.
    A

    Arilon Insecticide uses the active ingredient Indoxacarb which is a non repellent. This non repellent quality allows the roach to unknowgly come into contact with the active ingredient and take it back to share by contact amongst other roaches. indoxacarb remains active even after digestion so it can be passed along to other insects through feces and bait sharing. It is the first pest control bait that scientists have found to remain active after it has been transferred twice after the first lethal dose. Passing poison like this from one insect to another is known as horizontal transfer.  This allows Indoxacarb products to target and kill muliple generations of roaches with a single feeding. It is not provide a contact or quick kill but is very effective for roach control.

    Demand CS uses Lambda Cyhalothrin which begins working immediately upon contact or ingestion, leading to insect knock-down and death. Demand CS is a great insecticide to use outside due because the chemical is micro-encapsulated and holds up longer with weather elements and UV Rays.

    Both products are able to be used indoors and outdoors.

  • Asked by Paul from Arlington, Tx
    11/19/2013
    Q
    Arilon has the same active ingredient as Advion Fire ant bait... why does Arilon NOT work for fire ants?
    A
    There could be a number of reasons why the manufacturer does not list fire ants on the product label for Arilon but the most common is that they have not tested it against this particular pest.  There are a lot of additional tests and research that go into making sure a product works for fire ants and most manufacturers do not want to go through this hassle so they choose to not list the pest on the label.  That does not mean that fire ants will not die if they contact a surface treated with Arilon, it just means that we cannot recommend this product as an effective treatment for fire ants.

    08/23/2013
    Q
    Will DuPont Arilon Insecticide contaminate DuPont Advion Roach Gel Bait?
    A
    We recommend treating with the DuPont Arilon Insecticide in areas where you are not baiting with DuPont Advion Roach Bait Gel. Insecticides and household cleaners can contaminate baits making them less effective and less attractive to the insects.
