I use it inside my greenhouse.
I am using it indoors. I had never used it before, or anything like it, so my primary concern was toxicity and off gassing inside a living space. It turns out that there is nothing whatsoever to be concerned of. I'm not saying you should eat it, but besides that it's completely safe for indoor use.
My issue is bed bugs. My personal preference is to stay away from toxic chemicals, which leaves natural and non-toxic alternatives. Such as diatomaceous earth and sticky pads. Both of which work great, but do come with inherent limitations. Like the fact that it takes a few minutes to a few hours for the critter to die off once it's been exposed. Unfortunately, if you're dealing with a pregnant critter that leaves them enough time to squirt out their eggs leaving you yet another generation of pests to deal with.
Regardless of what you might read on the bottles, there is no such thing as instant bed bug eradication. They are just too small and they can hide virtually anywhere. So there is simply no way to hunt them all down before they bite you.
FYI, it's the egg-laying you should be worried about, not the biting.
So here's the trick. They hunt by sensing your body heat and your exhaled breath. Which is why they seem to focus on your bed area, because after all it's the one place were you remain relatively still for up to eight hours a day. Then consider the fact that they can cross any room in your house in less than 20 minutes. So instead of trying to avoid them, allow yourself to become their bait. But what they don't know, and can never prepare for, is that you have laid a trap from which there is no escape. It's really the only way that works: instead of going to them, have a plan for when they come to you.
Here's what I did. I took a roll of 2" wide double sided carpet tape and used it to cover the baseboards and room corners around the footprint of my queen size bed. I also laid a couple of strips directly under the bed. I was very generous with the placement of the tape, and used up about 70 of the 90 ft roll. The idea is to create a barrier which any bug would have to cross in order to reach their meal.
I then used a cheap disposable plastic putty knife, and slathered the tape with the Tanglefoot mixture. The result is a sticky barrier that a small dog would have trouble walking through, much less a pea sized bed bug.
I also use bed bug coaster traps filled with diatomaceous earth under the four bed posts. Which make a fantastic kill trap, but are not instant and do not necessarily prevent the bed bugs from traveling further. It does guarantee a kill, but it does not guarantee an instant kill. The trick here is to be very generous with the DE so that the bug is guaranteed full exposure to the powder. The better the exposure, the quicker the kill.
Between the sticky barrier and the bed bug coaster traps, about all that is left are bugs that might accidentally fall from the ceiling. So in other words, I feel at this point I am 99% protected. I know the bugs are still here, and I know they are still hunting me, but I also know what waits for them when they finally get hungry enough to head my way.
Since I put it on my tree 3 months ago --- ZERO ants. Here is how to PROPERLY install it. You need two people. First you wind it around the tree trunk or the smaller limbs above a few times making the wrinkled paper winding about 6 inches wide. Don't wind it just the width of the paper wrap. Make it 3 times wider and SECURE IT WITH PLASTIC TIE straps --- Zip ties I think they are called. One at each edge and one in the middle. I had to put two long zip ties together to go around the limbs. You may even need 3. This is why you need two people. One has to hold the paper wrapping tight while the other places the zip ties in place and pulls them tight.
Next--- you do NOT use some dumb tool to spread the sticky stuff. It makes too much of a mess and is hard to control the stick stuff from running. What you DO is go get two latex gloves, put them on and dip your fingers in to pull out maybe a tablespoon of the sticky stuff and gently smear it on evenly all over the surface of the secured paper wrap. Keep it thin but not too thin because this stuff will run. This is the easy part. If you do it with a tool like they show--- it a real pain to control the thickness and gobs of it plop on the ground.
I've had several rain storms and it still looks like new because of the plastic tie straps hold so well. You will probably have re-coat it again 3 months later depending on the blowing dust, dirt and debris blowing around, but using the latex gloves, it only takes about 5 minutes. Do NOT re-wrap the tree with new paper.
I just wanted to share this with you because of the horror show I faced before finding TREE TANGLEFOOT. Apply it my way and it's easy as pie. Their way---- it another horror show
