Optigard Flex Receives California State Registration

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Optigard Flex liquid insecticide, by Syngenta, has received California state registration. Optigard Flex, introduced nationally in August 2008, is a non-repellent, general pest product that allows indoor and outdoor application as a liquid or foam, with no limitations on application timing.

With its flexible label, Optigard Flex can be applied both indoors and outdoors, as a spray, foam or mist. And there is no restriction on when the product can be re-applied, the company said.

Optigard Flex is labeled for a broad spectrum of ants and other nuisance arthropod pests including cockroaches. It uses the same active ingredient, thiamethoxam, as Optigard Ant Gel Bait.
