Description:
ICON 10 CS® has been successfully evaluated by the WHO Pesticides Evaluation Scheme (WHOPES) for indoor residual spraying for malaria prevention and control.
ICON 10 CS® is a modern high technology insecticide containing the active ingredient Lambda - cyhalothrin, recognized as one of the most powerful pyrethroids available for the control of crawling and flying insects. It provides extended residual control of up to nine months compared to conventional formulations.
ICON 10 CS® uses state of the art micro-encapsulation technology to give a product, which combines the ease of use of an emulsifiable concentrate, with the long lasting residual strength of a wettable powder.
The insecticide is contained in a polymer microcapsule which remains intact on the target surface after spraying. The active ingredient is protected from the environment and offers extended residual activity, particularly on porous surfaces like cement and mud. It also shows improved performance on challenging vinyl painted surfaces when compared to other formulations.
ICON 10 CS® exhibits a fast knockdown and killing action against a broad spectrum of insects. It has minimal odour after application and is none staining on household surfaces and is therefore accepted by householders ensuring high levels of coverage during spray programmes.
ICON 10 CS® is presented in a single unit sachet. This unit dose "Pump Charge" facilitates accurate dosing and reduces wastage. The contents mix quickly and easily with water, and should be applied through a quality compression sprayer with a flat fan 8001E or 8002 E nozzle. This ensures the correct application rates onto the target surfaces normally found in traditional and western type houses.
