“We’re excited to expand our industry-leading lineup of agricultural insect control solutions with the launch of Exhalt™ WDG Insect Growth Regulator,” said Andrea Trinh, brand manager for the Farm & Ranch division of Central Life Sciences. “This versatile insect growth regulator (IGR) can be scattered or sprayed in livestock facilities to protect animals from costly insect infestations.”
Exhalt™ WDG Insect Growth Regulator is a granular product that may be applied dry or dispersed into water and applied as a liquid spray and is approved for use in and around poultry, cattle*, equine*, and swine operations*, as well as other commercial* facilities. The active ingredient, novaluron, is an IGR that provides control by interrupting the life cycles of labeled insects and causing a gradual reduction in the population of house flies, stable flies**, dump flies, and soldier flies, as well as darkling beetles, crickets, and German cockroach nymphs (indoor applications only).
Exhalt™ WDG Insect Growth Regulator may also be combined or tank-mixed and applied as a coarse spray with an EPA-registered insecticide. The combination of an adulticide and Exhalt™ WDG Insect Growth Regulator will provide immediate control of labeled adult insects while inhibiting the immature stages from developing into adults.
*Not for use in California
**Granular application only
The elimination of adult insects with Exhalt™ WDG Insect Growth Regulator occurs gradually and becomes apparent 1-2 weeks after application. Exhalt™ WDG Insect Growth Regulator is approved for use in and around livestock facilities, including cattle barns*, swine houses*, horse barns*, livestock manure*, non-farm animal stalls*, cage-layer houses, poultry houses, as well as commercial buildings*, structures*, and their immediate surroundings*, and on modes of transport*, including non-food/non-feed areas of stores*, warehouses*, transportation equipment*, manufacturing sites*, industrial buildings*, trucks*, and trailers*.
“We promote targeted insect control at all levels based on fly activity. Exhalt™ WDG Insect Growth Regulator is a sugar-based bait and should be applied at low levels of operations where flies feed,” said Trinh.
