Insect Pest Control Cardiff

We wanted to explain how we go about using sprayable insecticides.

Its important to remember that most chemical based insecticides are nerve agents, and as such we need to be very wary of when and how we use them.

Usually when using an insecticide spray we will usually use an active ingredient that is either carbamate or pyrethrine based and with this we often use an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) dependent upon the insect control treatment.

The Insect Growth regulator Methoprene is a juvenile hormone. Methoprene is an amber-colored liquid with a faint fruity odor which is essentially nontoxic to humans when ingested or inhaled. It is used in drinking water cisterns to control mosquitoes which spread dengue fever and malaria. It does not kill adult insects. Instead, it acts as a growth regulator, mimicking natural juvenile hormone of insects. Juvenile hormone must be absent for a pupa to molt to an adult, so methoprene treated larvae will be unable to successfully change from a pupa to the adult insect. This breaks the biological life cycle of the insect preventing recurring infestation. “Methoprene is used in the production of a number of foods including meat, milk, mushrooms, peanuts, rice and cereals. It also has several uses on domestic animals (pets) for controlling fleas. Methoprene is considered a biochemical pesticide because rather than controlling target pests through direct toxicity, methoprene interferes with an insect’s life cycle and prevents it from reaching maturity or reproducing.
