ABSTRACT:
A method of applying a powdered insecticide directly to carpeting and other flooring includes using an applicator such as, for example, a paint roller, to evenly apply an insecticide powder to the flooring. The powdered insecticide is first deposited in a container. Then the paint roller's powder-attracting surface is first touched against the insecticide and subsequently contacted with the flooring. The paint roller is moved to distribute the insecticide evenly. If the flooring constitutes carpeting, a stiff brush may be used to brush the insecticide into the carpet fibers.
