Composition of the product, form of release and purpose

How does Xulat C25 insecticide work?
The action of an insecticide differs from the mechanism of action of similar drugs. When the solution reaches the surface, the liquid evaporates from it, leaving a thin layer of microcapsules that stick to the insects.The pest not only dies itself, but also transfers the capsules to its fellow creatures.
The capsules actively secrete an insecticidal substance, which leads to the death of insects. Chlorpyrifos phosphorylates the protein enzyme acetylcholinesterase, essential for the transmission of nerve impulses. Insects die of paralysis. The duration of action of chlorpyrifos is 40-70 days.
The insecticidal preparation is very effective, pests do not develop addiction to it, the death of insects is achieved even with frequent treatment.
When using the agent according to the instructions, the manufacturer guarantees the complete destruction of the entire population.
Instructions for use of the drug
To prepare solutions, the insecticide is diluted in warm water, stirred for 5 minutes. For the treatment of places where insects accumulate, the agent is diluted in a concentration (in g per 1 l):
- mosquito larvae - 3;
- insects, fleas, adult mosquitoes - 5;
- ants, adult flies - 10;
- cockroaches, fly larvae, wasps - 16.
Surfaces are treated in places of location and movement of insects, cracks and holes in walls, near doors, windows, baseboards, ventilation grilles, pipes. All premises where parasites have been detected are treated simultaneously. The solution is sprayed on the surface in a volume of 50 ml/m2 to 100 ml/m2. Remove the product with a damp cloth as needed. The insecticidal effect of the agent lasts at least 5-6 months. Repeated treatments are possible, they are carried out if the pests reappear.
