Recommended Products

Indoor Products

PT® Fendona®, PT® 565 Plus XLO and PT® PI® can be applied indoors, and they all feature a quick knockdown. Since these products are oil-based aerosols, they can potentially stain or dissolve materials such as Styrofoam insulation. If possible, test on a sample material first.

PT® Wasp-Freeze® II Wasp & Hornet Insecticide

PT® Wasp-Freeze® II can be applied from 15 feet away, minimizing the risk of stings. It is one of our most effective products to use against stinging insects and spiders. However, it can only be used in attics, crawlspaces and outdoor areas, like chimneys and decks. It may stain asphalt roofing shingles, so testing a sample area first is recommended.
