Duraflex ZC: Fast Knock-Down and Long-Lasting Pest Control

As mosquito season intensifies, pest management professionals need reliable, efficient tools to combat mosquitoes, ticks, and other persistent pests. Duraflex ZC delivers both immediate knockdown and sustained control with a powerful, triple-action formulation engineered for today’s toughest pest challenges.

ADVANCED ZC FORMULATION: THE BEST OF TWO TECHNOLOGIES

Duraflex ZC leverages a ZC formulation, which combines capsule suspension (CS) and suspension concentrate (SC) technologies. This dual delivery method enables rapid action and extended residual control.

At the core of Duraflex ZC’s performance are three active ingredients:

  • Bifenthrin (3.95%) – A proven adulticide targeting mosquitoes, ticks, and other pests on contact.
  • Novaluron (1.3%) – An insect growth regulator (IGR) that disrupts insect development and molting.
  • Pyriproxyfen (1.3%) – A juvenile hormone analog that affects normal insect growth and reproduction.
  • Together, these ingredients provide a comprehensive solution for both immediate knockdown and long-term population control.
NOW & LATER: CONTROLLED RELEASE FOR SUSTAINED PROTECTION

Duraflex ZC utilizes a combination of thicker and thinner microcapsule walls, allowing for a staggered release of active ingredients. Some capsules break down quickly to deliver a fast knockdown, while others slowly release over time—providing residual protection for up to 30 days against mosquitoes on treated vegetation.

This “Now & Later” approach ensures that treated areas remain protected long after the initial treatment.

KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS
  • Triple-Action Formula: Combines an adulticide and two IGRs to kill pests and disrupt their life cycles.
  • Controlled Release Technology: Microencapsulation ensures both quick and extended pest control.
  • Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: Targets mosquitoes, cockroaches, ants, fleas, and more.
  • Versatile Use Sites: Labeled for use around residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, and ornamental areas.
