Ready to apply dust for wasp and insect control
Contains: 20g/kg permethrin
NoPests® Wasp Insect Dust is a dry formulation insecticide dust designed to provide targeted control of wasps at their nest entrance and activity points in outdoor environments throughout New Zealand.
This specially formulated dust penetrates into nest galleries and voids where wasps hide and operate, delivering active ingredients directly to where they are most effective. It’s ideal for use around outdoor spaces including:
-
Behind garden sheds and structures
-
Eaves, roof voids, pergolas and outdoor storage areas
-
Around fruit trees and garden edges where wasps frequently nest
-
Near property boundaries and hardscape features
The lightweight dust clings to insect exoskeletons as they enter or exit their nests, helping reduce populations of Common and German wasps during peak activity seasons. This makes NoPests® Wasp Insect Dust a useful addition to your outdoor wasp control strategy when used safely and recommended according to label directions.
Wasp Insect Dust is particularly effective during late summer and autumn when wasp nest activity peaks. By applying the dust at the nest entrance and activity zones, wasps carry the dust back into the nest, helping suppress populations at source without relying on sprays or volatile attractants.
Directions for Use – NoPests® Wasp Insect Dust 100g
-
Locate the nest entrance or active wasp flight paths.
-
Apply a light dusting of Wasp Insect Dust directly into the entrance and around openings where wasps are observed.
-
Ensure dust reaches galleries and voids — do not overapply.
-
Monitor activity and reapply if necessary once nest activity declines.
Best results are achieved when applied early morning or late evening when wasps are less active. Always follow the label directions, wear appropriate protective gear and avoid inhalation while applying dust.
