I used this product in my closet due to carpet beetles eating my clothes. How often would I need to reapply it to the closet baseboards and walls.

I don't know. We have moved since we bought the product and plan on using it to insure against any moths that may have moved with us.

Be sure the surface is perfectly clean and dry. I applied it with an old cotton cloth and left it to dry completely and then applied the second coat. On my floor it should be re-done every year or so since it's a high traffic area.

I use this product to kill the order of pet urine in my house. After spraying the area and letting set for about 24 hours I then clean the area and if possible steam clean (floors). I then respray if I think there is urine still under the baseboards or spots my cleaning missed. If it is used again by my cat, I know I did not get all the urine cleaned up, however, I can not smell urine in my house and visitors have commented they would never know I have multiple cats.

We have applied it to all the wood, in two coats, with a 24 hr drying period between coats. The insides are subject to consistent moisture via the dirt, so we believed it necessary. This was one of the reasons we chose this product.

It will depend on how badly it is infested. As a suggestion: you can dust it with the Eaton powder and enclose the furniture in plastic like our grandparents used to do to keep their furniture clean. This should surely killed them off in a couple of months. Note I read that if you have carpet you need to steam clean them. I hope this helps.

Be careful this stuff can react with some wood finishes. Just pulled some off an armoire shelf and most of it came off but the rest is proving hard to get off. Trying to google a fix now.

Yes, we have had some horrible infestations in our rental properties. So I have only used this with other means. Make sure you put borax along run sites, under fridge, anywhere they have to pass to get to food source. Then we make sure all food cleaned up under fridge, stove, around toliets ect. Then I put drops of this where there nest are which usually is in kitchen. They track borax to nest which kills babies and the poison kills them. Drastic measures if bad infestation. Hope this helps. I have never had to reapply poison by doing this. But if this doesn't work it could be the neighbors house. I've seen this as well that's a whole nother ball game! Good luck

funny you should ask that- I have 2 cats as well, and I love them like crazy- I only use this product on my sport coats- and i spray them outside, and then usually hang on my shower rod. I wouldn't just douse your apartment/house in this stuff, but you can protect your garments with it- I just wouldn't lay it on the floor where your cats could get to it. In all likelihood, they would be repelled by the smell of it, but why take a chance. And I would wait to wear a garment a couple of days after spraying, just to be safe. If you really have nice wool and/or silk garments, I promise you moths will find them and feast. They especially love silk.

Marg, I think the Nuvan ProStrips could be effective as part of a total carpet beetle regimen if used in closets, attics, storage areas, sealed bins, etc. Hang in there.I'm editing my answer to add previous poster Jonathan's website at U-Spray Bugspray has one of the best informational articles about carpet beetle control I've come across along with realistic strategies for eradication. I just checked to make sure it was the website I thought, and it is. I personally found good info there, with very informative Q&A; in the comments. Good luck!

Clean as best as you can while wet and the rest will have to wear off. There might be a chemical solution bit it could ruin your carpet.

It depends on how well you take care of it. If its damp and you roll it up into a ball and throw it onto the bottom of your closet for 5 months, when you take it out, ya. I will tell you though, that the sellers are very concerned about their customers satisfaction. I would not hesitate to buy here again.

I used both bottles of Fabric clear on mattress, box springs, behind bed, under bed and sprayed the carpet around the bed every day and night.It worked. Also bought borax and put on floor and consistantly vacuumed three times a day.

DO NOT reapply this product. The microorganisms multiply exponentially and spread throughout your yard and to neighboring properties. The 10 oz box treats 2500 sq ft which is 1/2 of one-tenth acre. We used a different brand of milky spore with the tube applicator (not this shaker box). We applied it in the fall as directed, treating every other yard on our block. The following spring there were hardly any beetles- like maybe 6 in my yard whereas they were in hordes every other year. The 2nd year after the application there were none and there have been none ever since (~ 10 years).

Fill the container only 3/4 full. If you overfill it tend to clog. I invert the pest pistol (red top facing down) and use steady pressure. It can be messy at first, and I would keep to applications in "hidden" areas (behind fridge, washer, dryer, etc.) until you get the hang of it. Then you can work up to applying it in places like corners and inside doors (jambs, sills, etc.) Hope this helps. Happy bug hunting!

The spray should be reapplied every every 5 to 7 days when insects are present.

I am a licensed pest control operator. If you used Tim-Bor to treat for a beetle infestation (usually little pencil-lead sized exit holes in the wood), then what you might be seeing is the frass (not sawdust) coming out of the exit holes. This will happen even with a dead beetle infestation, killing the beetle doesn't make the frass disappear. To be sure, put the wood on a clean surface, free of vibrations, for a week. If no more frass comes out, they are dead. If more frass came out, without ANY moving of the wood, well, repeat the treatment. Tim-Bor is an excellent, "tried and true", product. Be sure to follow the label exactly, if you do, it will do the job. Good luck, shouldn't be a problem.
