    Long-Lasting Solution For a Variety of Bugs

    Made from engineered silica, CimeXa Insecticide Dust works by drying out insects on contact, offering fast results with no odor or harsh chemicals. It's a favorite among professionals, and now you can use it at home without needing an exterminator.

    To use, apply a light dusting in problem areas using a hand duster or brush. Avoid overapplying; less is more. CimeXa Dust works best when kept dry, which makes it a powerful long-term solution, especially for bed bug infestations. If you're treating for bed bugs, apply dust around your mattress, box spring, bed frame, and behind wall plates.

    HOW TO USE CIMEXA DUST

    When using CimeXa, you’ll first need to purchase a bulb duster or handheld duster. You should also have appropriate PPE on hand, including protective eyewear, gloves, and a face mask. Follow our how-to guide to ensure the most effective use of CimeXa insecticide dust.

    1. Put on your PPE gear, including latex gloves, goggles, and a respirator.
    2. Unscrew the cap of the CimeXa bottle and add a small amount to your duster.
    3. Firmly squeeze the duster to apply the product to cracks, crevices, upholstery, and carpeting.
    4. Use a brush or broom to work the dust into any textiles.

    Avoid creating large clouds of dust in the air. Make sure to get in close to the area you want to coat with dust and squeeze only once you’ve aimed your duster appropriately.

    CimeXa can also be used as a wettable dust. 

    1. Mix up to one pound of CimeXa with one gallon of water using a mixer. 
    2. Add the mixture to an industrial sprayer.
    3. Spray the liquid CimeXa onto the exposed exterior walls of attics, crawl spaces, and new construction.
    4. You should spray enough that the wall is damp but not dripping.

    Do not use this spray on walls that are already finished with drywall.
