For which type of job are dust formulations not commonly used?

Dust formulations are typically used because they provide targeted and effective control over pests in various settings. When it comes to treating indoor pests, agricultural crops, and household insects, dust formulations are favored due to their ability to remain effective over time and facilitate thorough coverage in hard-to-reach areas.

In the context of recreational turf areas, however, the application of dust formulations is less common. This is primarily because recreational areas often require broader application methods to ensure an even distribution across large, open spaces. Dusts may not adhere well to grass and large turf surfaces, leading to inconsistent pest control. In these scenarios, liquid formulations, granules, or other types of pest management solutions are generally preferred due to their ability to cover wide areas more uniformly and quickly.
