The Unseen Problem
80-95% of the insect problem is hidden!
Problem
In a normal insect population, all stages of the life cycle are taking place and are present at
the same time. Adult insects, such as fleas and cockroaches, represent only 5% to 20% of the
total insect population. These visible stages are the first indication of an insect problem and
the smallest proportion of the infestation. What is not seen is the balance of the insect
population made up of eggs and immature developing stages hidden in the indoor
environment. Eggs and immature stages account for the other 80 to 95% of the problem.
Conventional products that simply control the adult insects or are ineffective against all
stages of the life cycle, only provide a temporary solution. If the immature stages are not
controlled, new adults will quickly develop.
Solution
Only Mericare
stops adult insects and prevents eggs and immature stages from developing
into new adult insects for over 32 weeks.
Mericare
with Fenoxycarb is the most advanced and efficacious premise product available
that stops insects at all stages of the life cycle. It kills eggs, immature stages and existing
adult insects present at the time of treatment.
Action
Mericare
provides control of existing adult insects
Exposure of eggs and larvae to fenoxycarb, either by direct contact at the time of treatment or
weeks later when eggs are reintroduced into the environment, disrupts the normal
developmental cycle thus inhibiting further development or causing the stages not to develop
fully or properly.
Fenoxycarb IGR prevents immature stages from developing into adults for over 32 weeks.
