Fendona CS controlled release insecticide: unrivaled performance and superior benefits

When it comes to pest control, effectiveness and reliability are paramount. Fendona® CS Controlled Release Insecticide from BASF stands out as a leading solution, providing unparalleled performance and numerous benefits that make it the go-to choice for pest control professionals.

One of the primary reasons Fendona CS excels is its advanced micro-encapsulation technology that is designed to last longer in the environment. The surface of these capsules is formed by a lipophilic micro-mesh structure, providing a protective cage around the active ingredient, alpha-cypermethrin. This innovation ensures a uniform and controlled release providing fast kill and improved residual. The microcapsules within Fendona CS adhere to pests' exoskeletons, at which point the active ingredient easily passes through the micro-mesh by diffusion, penetrating the insect’s body. Due to the small size of these microcapsules, there are more microcapsules available giving you broader coverage than other products.

Fendona CS combats a wide range of pests, from common nuisances like mosquitoes to more challenging invaders like scorpions and spiders. This broad-spectrum efficacy means that pest control professionals can rely on one product to address multiple issues, saving time and reducing the need for a diverse arsenal of pesticides.  

Fendona CS has shown up to 90-day residual control of mosquitoes on live plants and, due to the bonding of the microcapsules, has better rain fastness than competing product choices. This is especially important because mosquitoes are not only a nuisance, but they are also a public health pest, vectoring diseases like Zika virus, Chikungunya, and West Nile virus, among others. Mosquitoes typically rest on the underside of leaves, so do not forget to treat these areas. Using a powered misting blower will optimize coverage and increase labor efficiency as it moves the leaves allowing treatment on all sides. The low-dose requirements and strong safety profile of the active ingredient in Fendona CS appears on the World Health Organization’s list of recommended insecticides for use against malaria-transmitting mosquitoes.  

In areas afflicted by scorpions, control is imperative (because scorpion stings can be very severe). Alpha-cypermethrin, the active ingredient in Fendona CS, is four times as active as cypermethrin and can be applied on and off structure. Treating entry points and voids in and on the property can eliminate scorpion harborage. Off-structure treatments should be made to stone walls, wood piles, mulch beds and vegetation surrounding the home where scorpions live and breed.  

Most species of spiders found in and around structures are not dangerous or threatening and in fact, spiders are beneficial organisms that feed on other insects in their environment. Despite this, the webbing they create, and their presence can appear ominous and are not wanted by property owners. Many factors make spider control difficult for pest management professionals. They make very light contact with treated surfaces, often avoiding a lethal dose of pesticides. Using repellent products like Fendona CS can keep spiders away from visible areas. Treating spiders, webs, and egg sacs directly will aid with control and elimination programs. The microcapsules of Fendona CS stick to spider legs, web threads, and the surface of egg sacs enabling fast knockdown and residual control.  

PMPs can trust that Fendona CS will keep working long after application, reducing callbacks or the need for frequent treatments. In the competitive world of pest control, cost-effectiveness is crucial. Fendona CS provides excellent value by combining efficacy with extended residual action. This reduces the frequency of applications and lowers overall treatment costs.  

When compared to other products on the market, the superior technology and broad-spectrum efficacy make Fendona CS the clear winner. The advanced micro-encapsulation ensures a longer-lasting impact, while the safety and ease of use offer additional advantages over traditional formulations. Pest control professionals seeking a reliable, cost-effective solution will find Fendona CS to be an indispensable tool in their arsenal.

Its advanced technology, broad-spectrum efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness make it the ultimate choice for those looking to provide superior pest management services.
