BIOVECTROL® 10EW is a new concept; eco-friendly insecticide based on a unique active ingredient Etofenprox®1 and certain natural botanical extracts specially designed for vector control.

BIOVECTROL® 10EW, with its excellent efficacy and high repellence, offers vital role in rapid and effective control of vector-borne diseases such as those of Dengue Hemorrhage Fever, Yellow Fever, Malaria, Filaria, Chagas Disease, Encephalitis, Shigellosis, Trachoma and other diarrhea diseases.

This new potent organic vector control formula exterminates mosquitoes and biting insects and is especially effective against Anopheline Mosquitoes, Aedes Mosquitoes, Synanthropic Flies, Triatomine Bugs, Cockroaches, Fleas, etc.

By virtue of biodegradable and photodegradable properties of BIOVECTROL® 10EW, long term and repeated applications will not pose any environmental pollution.

 
 
Features
 
HIGH EFFICACY
  It is effective against a broad spectrum of vectors and pests including mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches, triatomine bugs, fleas, etc. Furthermore, it provides excellent persistence on wall surfaces and net fibers.
   
SAFE FOR MAMMALS AND ANIMALS
  It provides a safe and effective method of protection as it has no harmful influence to human and non-target organisms.
   
LOW IMPACT ON ENVIRONMENT AND TO NON-TARGET ORGANISMS INCLUDING FISH, BIRDS AND BENEFICIAL INVERTEBRATES – ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY
   
VECTORS UNLIKELY TO DEVELOP RESISTANCE
  Vectors that have developed high resistance to conventional insecticides will have no tendency to show cross-resistance.
   
PLESANT ODOR, NON STAINING AND NON-IRRITANT
  Easily accepted by the community.
   
IMPROVEMENT OF LIVING CONDITIONS
  The reduction in larva and adult vector population (indoor and outdoor) will consequently decrease man-vector contact, thus promoting a healthier and more hygienic living environment.

SOIL DECOMPOSITION
  a) Soil decomposition studies showed that the half-life of BIOVECTROL® 10EW is approximately 1 ~ 3 weeks in aerobic soils.

b) The leaching test on soils revealed that BIOVECTROL® 10EW was not leached into the aquatic environment.
   
BIOVECTROL® 10EW is thus proven to be both Environmental and Ecological Friendly.

Application Methods
 
Dilute BIOVECTROL® 10EW with water and mix homogeneously. The dilution factor and the interval of re-treatment vary depending on the field of application.

Vectors that are mainly exophilic, but tend to feed or rest indoors briefly can be effectively controlled by indoor residual spraying. Examples of indoor residual treatment will be residual spraying to walls, ceilings, undersides of furniture, outside eaves and porch.

For vectors that are strongly exophilic and/or exophagic, those that rest and bite outdoors; exterior spraying should be employed. Exterior space-treatments with cold aerosols are carried out using hand or vehicle mounted ULV equipment.

Other control methods, such as insecticide treated mosquito nets can also be employed. Treating mosquito nets and curtains has also proven to be an effective and long lasting strategy for repelling and killing biting insects. Impregnated bednet also has the controlling effect on malaria parasite development.

When space treatment is applied from outsides, residents should be encouraged to leave windows and doors open during application to aid penetration of the insecticide.

There is no side effect on spray-men and the people living in the sprayed areas.
