Question 1

will this work to get rid of crawdads

Accepted Answer

YES, it will.  I'm sure you're referring to the pesky lawn/yard crawfish that live underground and create mounds after every hard rain.  It's a real pain in the butt to have to remove the mounds before cutting the grass.  Either dump a little down each hole and add some water or mix it in a bucket with some water and pour a little down each hole.  It's time consuming, but eventually they will be gone.  I'm not sure if it kills them or just chases them off.  I tried it after reading online that one of the ingredients works on crawfish.

Question 2

Why will this state that it will not ship to my address in Texas, however, no problem with the shipping of the same product that is in the 4 lb size?

Accepted Answer

Everything in Texas is bigger? So you need the Taxas size

Question 3

Does this kills roaches?

Accepted Answer

Heck yeah it kills roaches! Within one hor of application, I started seeing them come out of hiding and die. You want to appy a light puff of the powder along the baseboards and wherever else you think they may hide. Don't put too much though, its not necessary. Vaccum it up the next day if you want and apply again for atleast a week straight. Yes,, product smells like boiled cabbage, but who cares, its worth it. I applied this for a single week, and didn't see another roach for 3 years!! And when I did, I applied the powder again for a day and quickly took care of the problem.

Question 4

What happens if you disturb the mound?

Accepted Answer

I have used this product for a long time.  I find it works fastest if I DO disturb the mound slightly.  I put a small amount of the ant killer on the mound. then I poke the mound a few times with a stick about 2 feet long.  Then I stand back!  The ants go crazy and carry the poison into the mound.  Just be sure to STAND BACK!!!!!!
