Non Repellents work differently than repellent insecticide by not killing the insects on contact and not disrupting the pheromone trails allowing insect to travel freely allowing more insects to pick up more of the active ingredient and taking it back to there nesting sites allowing for more kills. Check out the possible myth about repellency

Since they don’t kill on contact they are not for a quick knockdown but better for maintenance and prevention or in conjunction with baits when other pest problems require immediate attention or with compound services.

You will have to explain them to customers because you may get call backs saying you where just here and sprayed and I have ants still crawling all over the place.
