A single application of our insecticides controls several different pest species and usually forms a persistent residue that continues to kill insects for hours or even days after application.

Because of their convenience, effectiveness and affordable pricing, our farming insecticides always exceed our customer expectations.

The effectiveness of our insecticides usually depends on when and where the pest encounters the insecticide.

Most of our farming insecticides are absorbed directly through an insect's exoskeleton. The products that encounter insects in this way are known as contact insecticides because they are effective "on contact".

Other insecticides act as fumigants. They are released in a state of vapor (as gases) and enter the insect's body through its tracheal system. Fumigants are most effective when they are used in an enclosed area such as a greenhouse, a warehouse, or a grain bin.

Still other products must be ingested before they have an effect. These are known as stomach insecticide products. They often work more slowly than fumigants or contact products, but they are still very useful for certain types of crops.

There is a special type of stomach insecticides that is known as systemic insecticides. The tissues of a plant (or animal) absorb these systemic insecticides without suffering any ill effects.

Then insect pests ingest the insecticide when they feed on the treated organism. Farmers sometimes include systemic insecticides in the diets of domestic animals to protect them from internal parasites.

Plant systemic farming insecticides can be incorporated into the soil around the plants. The insecticides are absorbed by the roots and translocated to the leaves, stems, and flowers.

If the insect that feeds on a treated plant does not acquire a lethal dose of the insecticide, it may at least be deterred from further feeding. Thus, still protecting the plant.

Farming insecticides contain one or more active ingredients that serve as toxicants (poisons). In their purest form (technical grade), these chemicals may be too toxic, too unstable, or too volatile to be handled or applied safely.

Therefore, we always mix technical grade insecticide with other compounds, known as adjuvants, in order to improve the performance, safety, or handling characteristics of a commercial product. These mixtures (technical grade insecticide plus adjuvants) are the ones that we refer to as formulations.

We usually list these compounds on the label as "inert ingredients", but they are certainly not inactive.

Many adjuvants are proprietary products, protected by patents and closely guarded as industrial secrets. They may represent 90-95% of the total volume of a commercial formulation.

We do formulate an insecticide in a variety of ways; each tailored for specific crop or animal application.
