FMC CORPORATION

FMC Corporation’s Specialty Product Business introduces a proprietary granular insecticide formulation that uses new technology for long-lasting control of lawn and general household pests, the company reports. Talstar EZ Granular Insecticide is the newest addition to the Talstar line of insecticides. The new technology allows the particles to disperse upon wetting, providing increased coverage when applied.

With good handling characteristics, Talstar EZ’s larger particle size makes it easier to see where it’s being spread, FMC says. The particles will not stain concrete or damage plants. Talstar EZ is best used on lawns, landscape areas and perimeters around residential, institutional, public, commercial and industrial buildings, parks, recreational areas and athletic fields. Talstar EZ is available in new 10- and 25-pound resealable plastic packages and comes with the Talstar Money Back Guarantee.

HOT FOOT AMERICA

Hot Foot America has introduced a new range of low-cost spikes to expand the company’s range of bird repellents. Called “Rite Spikes, The Right Spike For The Job” the new spikes are available in one-, two-, three- and five-spike versions.

The spikes are 1 foot long and their base has notches under each 1½-inch section to allow easy snap off. The notches in the base also allow the product to be “bent” permanently so the spike can easily conform to a curved surface. The underside of the base is also “spark eroded” to give the product better adhesion to surfaces when using adhesives. The base has holes in each section to allow the product to be screwed down if necessary and it has a high UV resistance, according to the company. All Rite Spikes carry a 10-year guarantee.

Mice-Tro, a tamper-proof mouse bait station and ant and roach bait station all in one, is now available from J.F. Oakes Sales & Marketing. Mice-Tro is a multi-purpose bait station — the bait chamber is ¾ inch above ground level, thus preventing bait damage by surface water. The high security, versatile, two-tier mouse bait station ramp facilitates easy mouse entry, J.F. Oakes reports.
Mice-Tro’s bait tray inserts convert the lower chamber into an ant or roach bait station. This will provide safety to the bait and also diverts ants or roaches from spoiling the mouse bait, the company says.
