How to Kill Indoor Pests the Easy Way

Some pest controls make it hard to get the job done in a way that feels simple and secure — or they take so long to kill your target pests, you need more faith and patience than product to get the job done. But that's not the way with Amdro Quick Kill Indoor/Outdoor Insect Killer Ready-To-Use.

Ready when you are, this simple-to-use product comes in a convenient quart trigger-spray container or in an economical gallon container with a trigger sprayer.

All it takes to use this powerful bug killer is a few good shakes and a target. There's no mixing or measuring required on your part.

How to Treat Your Home for Indoor Pests

Anytime you treat inside your home for pests, you want to preserve the sanctity of your sanctuary for all your family, including your pets. Whenever you treat with any pest control product, clear the area of people and pets before you spray. With Amdro Quick Kill Indoor/Outdoor Insect Killer Ready-To-Use, people and pets can return to the treated area once the spray dries.

Just a reminder: Never apply any household pest control product directly to a pet to treat for fleas, ticks or anything else. Leave that treatment to your veterinarian or veterinarian-approved products designed especially for pets. But with Amdro Quick Kill Indoor/Outdoor Insect Killer Ready-To-Use, you can spot treat places where your pets like to hang out in the house. Just follow the instructions on the product label.

With Amdro Quick Kill Indoor/Outdoor Insect Killer Ready-To-Use, you can treat common pest-prone areas like cracks, crevices and baseboards, but you can also treat areas that were out of bounds for do-it-yourself pest control in the past.

To treat inside pantries and cabinets, follow label instructions and remove all the items inside before you treat. Take a good hard look at your food items when you do. If you see evidence of pests, toss the item; don't put it back on the shelf. Once the cupboards are cleared, you can treat the surfaces. Make sure you don't let the spray contact food, surfaces your family prepares meals on, or utensils used for cooking and eating food.
