Active ingredient

Active Ingredient: Thiamethoxam 0.01% (0.1 g) + additives

- Thiamethoxam acts on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect nervous system, causing death.

- When worker ants consume the bait, they do not die immediately but carry it back to the colony, spreading it to other ants through trophallaxis (food sharing behavior), effectively eliminating the entire colony.

Product Features / Advantages

- Broad-spectrum action, effective against most ant species.

- Colorless, odorless, and easy to apply, suitable for areas where chemical spraying is not feasible, such as kitchens, restaurants, food stores, and households.

- Applying the bait where ants are observed can eliminate the entire colony.

- Long-lasting effect, remaining effective for at least 14 days after application (both indoors and outdoors).

Usage Instructions

Apply the bait at cracks and crevices near the ant nest or areas where ants are active.

+ Dosage: Apply point treatments, approximately 0.25 g/m² per point, or as a continuous line about 5 cm long (0.5 g/m²).

Safety Precautions

- Store the product properly, out of reach of children and pets.

- Applicators should wear gloves and a mask when placing the bait. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling, and do not eat, drink, or smoke during application.
