This precision ground dust is used to control crawling insects such as Ants, Cockroaches, Silverfish, Firebrats and Spiders. The reason to purchase this type of Boric Acid is that the particle size of the dust is such that it is electro statically attracted to the insect body as well as the other parts of the structure being treated. This gives this product the "edge" over similar products of the same material.
