Altosid®

PRODUCT INFORMATION

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. That means they 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.

TARGET - SPECIFIC CONTROL

Unlike conventional pesticides, each Altosid® formulation contains (S)-methoprene, an insect growth regulator (IGR) that stops mosquitoes from becoming breeding, biting adults. (S)-Methoprene is target-specific and will not affect fish, waterfowl, mammals or beneficial predatory insects. As a result, you can feel comfortable using Altosid® in your district's most sensitive areas. And you'll feel even better about the effective, long-term control you'll get in return.

Best of all, the (S)-methoprene in Altosid® products has an excellent toxicity profile. So you get complete control without additional worries. Furthermore, residual larvicidal activity reduces adult populations and the need for adulticides.
