Sumari and FastCap – How they fit in a perimeter control strategy

Pests can find themselves at the perimeter of a structure for several reasons. They could be initially attracted to moisture and harborage in the landscaping. Maybe cooler weather is setting in and they’re starting to look for an overwintering site. It’s possible that food sources attracted them to the area. Whatever the reason, pests close a structure may well find themselves getting inside the structure. Exactly what we don’t want. Many customers understand that to a certain extent, there will be insect activity outdoors. However, there is a lot less patience for pests inside the home. Because of that, a primary focus for PMPs is perimeter control.

Some of the most common perimeter pest control services involve 2-4 visits per year meaning that residual control is an important aspect of an insecticide treatment. Sumari Insecticide is a nonrepellent option that provides 90 day residual control of ants. For those looking for the thrill of the kill, Onslaught FastCap combines a knockdown agent with a microencapsulated residual to deliver fast kill and long lasting residual control against more than 100 pests. Both products also include outdoor broadcast among the approved uses, making them highly versatile options for perimeter control and a handy option for flea treatments. Perimeter pest control is all about prevention. If we can keep pests from getting inside in the first place, PMPs have fewer callbacks and happier customers.
