Description
Icon 10WG is a broad-spectrum insecticide used as an indoor residual spray to control an extensive variety of pests including roaches, mosquitoes, flies, spiders, ticks, scorpions, ants, and fleas.
Active Ingredient
Lambda-cyhalothrin
Mode of Action
Lambda-cyhalothrin remains unbroken and protected from environmental factors when sprayed on infested surfaces. This protection within the microcapsules ensures a continued residual effect, especially on tough porous layers like mud and cement. When insects walk on sprayed areas, the capsules adhere to their bodies. It quickly penetrates their bodies through the cuticle, causing insect paralysis and instant death.
A single capsule is enough to exterminate a single mosquito whereas an application at the rate of 50mg ai/2 square meters leaves each one square meter surface covered with over 2.7 million capsules.
