Introducing the Bug-Juice Insecticide Paint Additive. You heard it right: Bug-Juice (Hey, I covered a product called Jig-A-Loo not too long ago!)

According to the press release that fell in my lap, Bug-Juice is the first and only product of its kind to receive an EPA registration (No. 47332-11) for both interior and exterior applications.

• Minimizes airborne pollutants related to pesticide sprays;
• Kills cockroaches, ants, mosquitoes, silverfish, and many other crawling/flying insects;
• Odorless – only smell is fresh paint;
• Residual - the product lasts the life of the coating (minimum 2 years);
• Saves $1000s by reducing costly pesticide control applications.

The product mixes with water-based latex paint, oil-based paint, stains or sealers, and it lasts the life of the coating.

Apparently the marketing department was unaware of an old Boy Scouts song we used to sing on hikes. Given the fact that I was 11-12 years old at the time, I thought it was great. Any of you builders/remodelers/architects/tradesmen remember this one? You can get both the audio AND written versions here

Bug Juice

(Sung to the Tune of “On Top of Old Smokey”)

At camp with the Boy Scouts,
they gave us a drink.
We thought it was kool-aid
because it was pink.

But the thing that they gave us
would gross out a moose,
for that great-tasting pink drink
was really bug juice.

It looked fresh and fruity
like tasty kool-aid
but the bugs that were in it
were murdered with raid.

We drank it by gallons.
We drank it by tons.
But, then the next morning
we all had the runs.

So if you drink bug juice
and a fly drives you mad
he's just getting even
because you swallowed his dad
