RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. — Alpine WSG Water Soluble Granule Insecticide from BASF has been approved for use in California. Pest management professionals operating in the state can now use the insecticide to control a variety of pests, including ants, bed bugs, German cockroaches, fleas and house flies.
Additionally, PMPs now can use Alpine WSG Water Soluble Granule Insecticide to control difficult pests in food-handling areas, such as commercial kitchens.
With new expanded labeling for food-handling areas, Alpine WSG insecticide can now be applied in most common indoor or outdoor settings to control insect pests, such as ants, bed bugs, fleas and house flies. The expanded labeling also gives PMPs greater flexibility to control German cockroaches, the primary insect pest in commercial kitchens.
Alpine WSG insecticide has a flexible label that allows for its application in almost any outdoor or indoor setting. The label permits many outdoor applications beyond pyrethroid product uses, BASF says.
“PMPs in California now have access to a highly effective, non-repellant insecticide,” said Brian Mann, marketing manager at BASF.
BASF reports Alpine WSG insecticide features genuine Transfer Effect technology found in Termidor termiticide formulations. The technology is transferred from ants that have come in contact with it to the larger colony population. This helps ensure the insecticide reaches all the ants directly or indirectly to provide control.
BASF is also now making the Alpine WSG insecticide available in a new 200-gram tip-and-pour bottle. For PMPs who use 500-gram bottles, a supplemental label is available in all states except California. The additional container size gives PMPs a more affordable and convenient option to meet a wider range of business needs, BASF says.
