Product information
Alpine Dust is a professional dust insecticide designed for both professional and amateur use. This product covers a broad spectrum of crawling and flying insects and it is based on a compound of active ingredients, such as Dinotefuran and Diatomaceous earth. Dinotefuran is a central nervous system inhibitor that affects the insect after the ingestion, while Diatomaceous earth is a completely natural insecticide made of tiny algae fossils directly from the earth. When insects contact or ingest diatomaceous earth, the scratchy surfaces cut through the waxy coating on the insects’ exoskeleton, causing dehydration and eventual death. Alpine Dust offers a non-repellent and odorless formula that comes in a ready-to use form and it should not be applied during bloom so bees don't get hurt.
