ABSTRACT:
A kit for eliminating fleas, roaches, ants and other crawling insects from a confined area is described, as well as a method for its use. The kit comprises a container filled with a residual insecticide (most preferably a 0.50% chlorpyrifos formulation); an adjustable spray dispenser therefor; a high-strength flushing agent in an aerosol container (most preferably 1.07% pyrethrins); a standard fogging nozzle for dispensing the flushing agent from the aerosol container; an additional fogging nozzle having a long, thin, tubular extension for dispensing the flushing agent into cracks, crevices and voids in the area; at least one white monitoring insect trapping device having glue on at least one surface thereof; and an information sheet explaining how to use the kit in accordance with the method also described herein. Where roaches and ants are particularly sought to be eradicated, baited insect devices are also included. The kit components are neatly packaged within a secure, portable container, and the kit is intended essentially for consumer use in dwelling abodes and office areas. The described method comprises applying the residual insecticide and flushing agent, monitoring the insect population with the trapping devices and then selectively reapplying the flushing agent as necessary within designated time periods based on the life cycles, harborage and sightings of fleas and roaches in particular. When used properly in accordance with the claimed method, the kit is able to achieve total flea, roach, ant and other crawling insect elimination from the confined area.
