Strike® Professional Midge Control Pellets, 22 lbs
Description
- EPA approved for wastewater facilities
- Shut down midges and filter flies without disrupting facility productivity
Use this professional-quality midge control formulation in sludge drying beds, lagoons, trickling filters, aeration tanks—wherever there is a swarming problem. Strike's active ingredients control midges before they become swarming adults. With its target-specific action, Strike won't affect fish, waterfowl, mammals or beneficial predatory insects. It also has the industry's lowest toxicity rating.
Strike is NOT a traditional insecticide. Unlike other products, which only kill a small amount of adult flies, Strike contains an EPA-approved insect growth regulator, or IGR, which mimics the natural biochemicals in an insect's body. Pre-adult nuisance flies absorb the IGR into their systems, where it disrupts normal development and causes them to remain in the pupal stage.
Strike pellets can be applied by hand by tossing them around problem areas. Designed to dissolve over a 4-week period, they provide a 30-day extended release of chemical. Pellets are extremely effective in any standing and some dynamic water environments. Recommended application rates are 5 to 10 lbs per acre.
Note: When using Strike or Strike Ultra, it is highly recommended that a mechanical agitator be used to ensure optimum mixing and performance of the chemical. Mixer, tank and pump are sold separately. Strike is an uncontrolled label. Contact your local regulatory agency to see if an applicator's license is needed.
