    Tri-Die Kills

    By Ron on 05/01/2010

    If you have carpenter bees, this stuff will take them out. Using the included tube, I sprayed this stuff in the hole and moved to the next hole. By the time I got to the third hole bees were falling out the previous two and dying. Wait a few days, then plug the hole with wood putty or cork. Done. The can says it works on other pests, too. I have to believe them, given it's effectiveness. I ALWAYS wear protective gear -- gloves, safety glasses and some kind of mask.

    Long lasting residual

    By Jenny on 07/19/2008

    I worked with a reputable pest control company for 8 years and I have found Tri-Die to be a great repellent. I used this product for many insects. The beauty of this product is it is a long lasting residual and will keep most pests that come in from outside through cracks and crevices out of your home. It does leave a powder film where it is applied, so make sure you use only in wall voids and cracks as the label states. My target pest presently is ants.

    Kills carpenter bees!!!

    By Ben on 05/26/2010

    In all the holes I could get to this seemed to work great to get rid of my carpenter bees. It leaves a white residue so be careful on trying to just spray where you need it to unless you want to have a big clean up issue afterwards.

    Problem solved!

    By Jo on 08/31/2008

    Tri-die has rescued me on numerous occasions- particularly from ants. This weekend I've discovered it's a sure fire way to battle Springtails coming in around a window and french door. The Springtails have been freaking me out because two other professional insecticides that I normally use to handle just about every desert-dwelling insect that attacks my home had failed. This morning I remembered the can of Tri-Die and put it to work. Problem solved. Unfortunately my local Bug and Weed Mart has stopped carrying it. I'm happy to learn that I can order it online!

    Tri die

    By Eric on 02/16/2018

    As a pest control owner this product serves a specific purpose. Spray on bed frames, back of headboards, dressers etc.

    Not Sure It Works For Carpenter Bees

    By Stephen on 05/26/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Although Tri-Die was offered as a solution for carpenter bees, there was nothing about them on the container itself. I tried it anyway. Injected a one second or so shot into the hole and cleared away the collected sawdust. More appeared the next day indicating that the bee(s) were still alive and kicking. Tried again with maybe a 4 or 5 second shot. No new sawdust for 3 days. But it is back again. Will try one more longer shot. If that doesn't work, I'll have to conclude that Tri-Die doesn't work for carpenter bees. Had to give it a minimum of one star. However, no result merits no stars.

    Had a problem with carpenter bees and did not have time to build a trap or move them someplace else. The Tri-Die worked very quickly.

    This is in my GO TO bag...

    By Anonymous on 07/05/2013

    Verified Purchase

    This stuff works great. I love the smell it leaves, like a peppery smell, but It does great at killing ants and keeping them from returning to a treated area. I also love how the little spray stem is punctured so that it shoots all over the place once you get it in a wall void. Awesome job and I hope that this stuff is available for years to come...

    The real deal

    By Joe on 05/14/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I had a carpenter bee reinfestation that was going on maybe four years of them being in the spot I finally tried this product and I'm ecstatic this stuff really works the spot was about 24 feet high on it go two story home so its hard for me to get to it I rigged way to get up there to their infestation and spray the area they were starting to die before I could climb back down the ladder that's been about 3 weeks now since I use this product and I'm not seen a carpenter bee sense now I can get back up there and plug the insulation holes. I will always come back to this website if I ever need any more type of pest control items because this saved me about 2 to 3 hundred bucks or more.thanks you Joe

    Tri-Die- 8oz

    By Dorothy on 11/02/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I have used the entire can, it hasn't stopped the silverfish. I find some dead, some pretty active. I was told this is a good product. Just wish there was something that eliminates them for good. They are disgusting!!

    Seems to do well, but did seem to block the spray straw.

    By Julian on 02/08/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I used this to get rid of silverfish in awkward places. The silverfish problem went after a spray, but i will say, the nozzle and spray was a little finicky. Could have been just my can though. As far as getting rid of the bugs, it deserved a 5 star. I'm only knocking off a star, cos my can was a little finicky.

    Works but

    By Dr on 03/29/2019

    I used to use this product with a plastic straw-like tube that made it possible to spot treat. Now it comes without the tube so is much less useful. The old product could be used by drilling a hole in a wall and insert the tube. Treatments like this meant less material used and wall voids could be protected. What happened?

    Tri-Fie

    By Carol on 07/03/2016

    It doesn't seem to work very well. I got a few roaches from someone moving articles from a storage unit in temporarily. I've never had any bugs before.

    Tri Die

    By Steve on 02/16/2016

    Love this product. Works as advertised. Would give it 5 stars if not for the fact that for the past 2 orders I did not receive the straws that fit into the spray nozzle. Other than that I give it 5 stars.

    the jury is out, but so far so good

    By Dlutzker on 02/05/2014

    Verified Purchase

    Don't know yet, because there was only one sighting of an ant, and since spraying none, but that is not proof. We'll see, but so far so good (after 2 weeks)

    Yellowjackets

    By Sean on 08/30/2011

    Tri-die worked great. had a small nest in the wall, with small opening. first tried some 3 year old talstar, which was working on other recent applications, but didn't seem to eradicate the nest. It sloed it down, but some activity remained. so I bought the tri-die, did a small application at the enterance, and it seemed to finish off the bee activity. tri-die and talstar is a winning combination for all the pests i've had to deal with.

    AMAZING STUFF!

    By A. on 01/19/2013

    Verified Purchase

    This stuff is amazing, we tried all sorts of other pesticides to no avail. Battling Book Lice was quite a struggle. Like I said, nothing else worked until we tried "TRI-DIE". Thank you Tri-Die and especially thank you DoMyOwnPestControl!

    Works on Bees

    By Irene on 09/05/2011

    This is a great product. I had a bee hive growing beneath dog house and this stuff took care of the problem. I went out at night and sprayed this under the dog house. It woke the bees up, but did the job. I totally recommend this product. It would have been a 5 star review, but the nozzle attachment didn't work on the first can. That was kind of scary, but it worked out well. Thanks

    This stuff works!

    By Beth on 11/25/2017

    Living in a farming area, I've been inundated with cluster flies this year. After looking around for BoridTurbo, which is no longer made, I found Tri-Die. It's like BoridTurbo as it dries to a powder which clings and kills those flies; great for cracks! There is one drawback, though. The spray tubes that come with the product don't fit the sprayer top. The spray does get into the cracks without a tube; I just wish the tube fit for the smaller areas.

    Good Stuff - WORKS!

    By Tj on 03/23/2018

    Good, much-needed product. A clinging insecticide dust that will keep wasps away from those problem corners, eaves and other areas where they seem to normally return again and again to build nests. It is working well for our small ranch (home and outbuildings) so far. Not sure how long the dust will last and repel, but so far no wasps have returned for 2 weeks post-spray. The spray leaves a white dust residue, so would not recommend spraying in areas that you don't want people to see, or on dark painted surfaces, if it will bother you. It does not bother us and appears to wash right off. Again, works very well, and I will buy again to solve returning wasp problems that no other product has succeeded in solving.

    Clover mites

    By Mckenna on 10/21/2021

    After extensive research on this site, I chose to combat my clover mite dilemma indoors with this PT Tri-Die Pressurized Dust Insecticide and also Bifen IT concentrate. I'm almost 2 months into trying to kill these mites and neither one has worked. This pressurized dust insecticide is listed as having an accompanying straw for crevasses and under baseboard/trim. Mine did not have it. Had to duct tape a straw from a WD-40 can onto nozzle hole to even be able to use mine.
