Boric Acid Roach and Silverfish Killer Powder for Insects (16oz)

PF Harris: A Legacy of Problem-Solving and Innovation

Problem-solving has been at the heart of PF Harris since its founding in 1924. The company's early success came when it tackled the roach and water bug infestation plaguing the Calvin Coolidge White House. Harris's product proved so effective that the Washington Times hailed the company's founder as a "vermin slayer" who had won a decisive battle against the cockroaches infesting the Executive Mansion.

Over the following months, Harris expanded its reach, treating dozens of government buildings, including the Senate Office Building, the Department of Justice, the Supreme Court, and Walter Reed Hospital. Each superintendent was highly satisfied with the results, paving the way for the company's continued growth and reputation.

Today, PF Harris remains nimble, responding to evolving market demands. The company has led the way in developing numerous products, including natural insect repellents like Swamp Gator and Swamp Gnat, which repel biting insects without using DEET. Beyond its product offerings, PF Harris helps customers find easy and economical solutions to pest problems through helpful labeling, instructive videos, and personalized advice.

PF Harris is America's oldest EPA-registered pest control company, with a reliable past and an innovative future. With over 55 products, the company provides solutions to treat a wide range of pests, from roaches and bed bugs to scorpions and stink bugs.

One of PF Harris's flagship products is its Boric Acid Roach Powder. This powder works by interfering with the roach's digestive system and clinging to the insect's exterior, helping to eliminate the infestation at its source. The powder is fast-acting, with insects coming into contact with the boric acid dying within 72 hours.

To effectively use the Boric Acid Roach Powder, shake the container well before opening. Use the easy applicator to create a barrier through which cockroaches and other insects must crawl. Lightly dust the powder in areas where roaches have been spotted, such as behind refrigerators, along baseboards, and in cracks and crevices. The powder contains a lure that will attract the roaches, ensuring its effectiveness.

To eliminate and prevent roach infestations, PF Harris recommends a multifaceted approach. Liquid insecticides can be used to treat the infested areas, while boric acid roach tablets can be placed in hard-to-reach areas. Roach powder can also be applied in locations not easily reached by liquid insecticides. Sticky traps can be used to further control the infestation.

To prevent future infestations, it's crucial to remove food sources and limit the availability of water. Clean up spills and crumbs promptly, avoid leaving food out for extended periods, and seal any cracks and openings with caulk.

PF Harris's Boric Acid Roach Powder is long-lasting, continuing to kill roaches, palmetto bugs, water bugs, and silverfish for weeks after application, as long as it remains dry. The powder is fast-acting, with insects dying within 72 hours of initial contact. Its easy-to-use applicator makes it simple to treat even hard-to-reach areas. The lure within the powder attracts roaches from their hiding places, ensuring the product's effectiveness.

Registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (No. 3-10) for use in homes with people and pets, PF Harris's Boric Acid Roach Powder is a reliable and safe solution for eliminating and preventing roach infestations. With a legacy of problem-solving and a commitment to innovation, PF Harris continues to be a trusted name in the pest control industry.
