Short Description:ALTOSID® is a larvicide that disrupts the normal growth pattern of immature mosquitoes in water and prevents them from becoming breeding, biting adults. ALTOSID is an easy to use, long-term, cost-effective and environmentally responsible mosquito control larvicide.Active Ingredient:(S)-MethopreneMode of Action:All ALTOSID formulations contain the Insect Growth Regulator, (s)-Methoprene, which interferes with a mosquito's normal metamorphosis. (S)-Methoprene in ALTOSID products has the industry's lowest toxicity rating. ALTOSID naturally degrades in the environment and will not adversely affect humans, fish, waterfowl, mammals or beneficial insects, thus it can be used in your program's most sensitive areas. And you'll feel even better about the effective, long-term control you'll get in return. Furthermore, residual larvicidal activity reduces adult populations and the need for using adulticides.No two mosquito habitats are alike - and neither are the ways you treat them. That's why there are a variety of ALTOSID formulations. Each provides the extended control you need in easy-to-access or difficult-to-treat areas. ALTOSID formulations are labeled for use in known fish habitats. ALTOSID offers the most diverse product line of all larviciding products, and can effectively prevent the emergence of breeding, biting adults without upsetting the food chain or impacting non-target species. So you're ensured consistent control - and peace of mind. Where/When to use:ALTOSID Briquets are designed to control mosquitoes in small bodies of water such as catch basins, ponds, lakes, ditches.ALTOSID Liquid Larvicide SR-5 & Liquid Concentrate SR-20 may be applied to areas when flooding may result in floodwater mosquito hatch. It may also be applied to irrigated croplands after flooding to control mosquito emergence. ALTOSID XR-G may be applied to temporary and permanent sites that support mosquito larval development with multi-broad potential. ALTOSID SBG is ideally suited for short-term (five to seven days) control of mosquitoes. ALTOSID WSP release effective levels of ALTOSID Insect Growth Regulator for up to 30 days under typical environmental conditions for treatment in abandoned swimming pools, catch basins, storm drains etc. ALTOSID PELLETS provide a slow dissolving, extended residual for up to 30 days making it extremely cost effective for sites like rice fields, cattail marshes, abandoned tires or other man-made habitats. Can be applied up to 15 days before flooding. ALTOSID PRO-G is an easy to apply granules. Altosid Pro G releases effective levels of Altosid insect growth regulator for up to 30 days after application. Applications should be continued throughout the season to maintain adequate control.
