A new long-lasting, polymer-enhanced formulation has been developed for suspension concentrates of synthetic pyrethroids which addresses and remedies the above mentioned problems. This polymer technology, called PolyZone™ technology, prolongs the effectiveness of deltamethrin suspension concentrates...

Tapinoma melanocephalum F. (Ghost Ant) infestations have increased in Western Europe. Generally, Ghost Ant infestations resemble those of Monomorium pharaonis (Pharaoh’s Ant) with a focus to older, multi-unit apartment blocks which offer a multitude of nesting opportunities and easy migration of ant...

A new technology is described for in-field dipping of conventional mosquito nets for long lasting efficacy by adding a polymer binder to the deltamethrin treatment. Various polymer binders vary greatly in their ability to improve the retention of deltamethrin on the fiber and ensure resistance of th...
