    5 of 5 Stars   Dustick Duster Worked as Expected
    June 16, 2010
    Verified Purchase

    I found the Dustick Duster to work exactly as advertised. The instructions were good. The sales person was very helpful and courteous. Their price and their free shipping beat all other suppliers. The delivery time was as indicated.

    5 of 5 Stars   Works like a charm!
    September 22, 2010

    I used the Dustick to reach a wasp nest that was outdoors and in the peak of my garage. I used all but one extension and it worked perfect! It does get a bit unstable though after you add the second extension so you need to rest it on something as you're adding more extensions. The mechanism itself is great! Well built and worth spending the extra money for a quality product. A bonus is that it comes in a nice storage case!

    5 of 5 Stars   Killer product!
    May 22, 2011

    Oh did those Carpenter bees hate getting that dust twenty feet above me where they were safe before. Their buzzing to their death was music to my ears.

    Worked great, really reduced the amount of trudging around with ladders (only needed for the highest peaks). Real time saver.

    4 of 5 Stars   Gets the job done but with a few flaws

    Leaks dust out where the spring loaded connector buttons fasten the pole to the top part of the duster. Have to put tape around it to seal it off. Other than that, pretty good tool.

    4 of 5 Stars   Dustick purchased for golf course
    September 10, 2012

    As The season nears the end it seems the Yellowjackets and White face Hornets become more numerous and aggressive. With the stick I don't have to wait for the professionals to come and am able to quickly control the nests. I've used it on Yellowjackets nesting in a wall both in and old barn mortar crack and in a void under an eave. The barn was 20' tall and it worked like a charm, though a bit wobbly at it's full extension. I've also used it on 2 full size Hornet nests hanging in trees at a 15' height. It worked but was a bit scary as the nests move as you try to insert the tip, stirring up the nest. One place the stick doesn't work is on underground nests. As you tilt the stick past horizontal the dust won't come out, only works in a vertical plane. So minus one star for that, otherwise very happy with it.

    Attic infested with red wasps. Nests were built up under the shingles and couldn't be seen or reached with ordinary wasp/hornet spray. The Dustick Duster was able without effort to reach these nests and completely kill them. Although expensive, one will probably pay an exterminator for multiple visits which could easily exceed the cost of this fine product. It is worth the investment to have around each season.

    Well worth the money. I just about like everything about the Duststick. The 1 negative issue, when only using the pump and the canister the handel turns in your hand. Other then that I would recommend every one should own one. I also call the manufacture about this one issue and got a quick response. Pleased to own the Dustrck it does the job. Lou

    1 of 5 Stars   Dustick needs improvement
    June 3, 2012

    The dustick needs a 90 degree angled tip so you can get it into carpenter bee holes behind facia boards. You need to get the drione dust into their entrance holes to be effective. The tip that comes with the dustick is useless for carpenter bee holes that are behind facia boards. I wish their was an option to buy a 90 degree tip. This product it not worth buying for holes behind facia boards unless they offer you a 90 degree angled tip as an option.

    I ordered a Dustick Duster from Do MY Own Pest Control.com in a last ditch effort to control the damage being done by carpenter bees on my cedar sided Timberframe home. The pest control company I've had for years had no solutions, but the damage continued. The Dustic Duster let me reach places to treat that were unreachable before the Dustic! Within days, the bees dropped to their death, and the swarms stopped immediately. Also the damage from woodpeckers stopped immediately. Do MY Own Pest Control.com delivered promptly and exceeded my expectations. Best protection I've ever invested in!

    5 of 5 Stars   Works as advertised
    April 16, 2012

    The carpenter bees are out in full force and I was able to try my new Dustick. I had to use 1 section of pole to reach the damaged area. I filled the container 3/4 full as directed and added the section of pole and the pump. Everything went together as shown in the directions. I was surprised by the large amount of dust that was released with each stroke of the pump. I do not think I will have any problem if I need to add the all the pole sections. I am very pleased with the Dustick Duster and the service from Do My Own Pest Control.

    Well made and relatively easy to use. It's expensive but saves time and the trouble of lugging around a ladder, plus keeps you away from problem area.

    This item worked better than expected. I bought it to control carpenter bees without needing to use a ladder as they have been boring into the logs on my log cabin and feeding the wood peckers who do even more damage. The 21 foot length was needed and worked well. Only regret is that I did not buy this item years ago.

    Good product. Wish it held a little more dust. Haven't tried the others out there but this one works. Had a little trouble with the dusting tube clogging but after I moved the tube up and checked the Drione dust for lumps it was okay. The reach with the extensions is awesome. Well made and hope to own this for a long time.

    Used it two weeks ago. Super easy to use. Some insecticide does come out of the connections. But that is expected. Could tape off, but that defeats purpose of breaking down. Do have to keep vertical - but works great.
