Nyguard IGR Concentrate

Container: 110 mil. bottle Nyguard IGR concentrate is a new  Insect Growth Regulator. NyGuard IGR prevents  insects such as fleas, roaches and pantry pest   from maturing into reproductive adults thereby controlling future infestations by cutting into the reproductive cycle. Nyguard has a very large product label that delivers excellent results.


When adults are present, NyGuard is commonly used in combination with a non-IGR insecticide. This method results in rapid eradication of adults and deposits a base level of NyGuard IGR. Since this product has a long residual, it remains in place for up to seven (7) months to actively disrupt the development of any immature stages that have yet to appear, or which were not susceptible to the insecticide product used to control adult insects.

GENERAL MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:

Mix concentrate with water and apply with equipment capable of delivering coarse wetting surface spray, fogging (space spray/mist), spot, crack and crevice spray applications, professional foam applicator or with a paintbrush, roller or similar device. Partially fill the sprayer with water, add required amount of concentrate in sprayer, agitate and fill to final volume. Agitate before each spray.

Tank mixing:

NyGuard IGR Concentrate may be tank mixed with other registered pest control products, unless either product label prohibits tank mixing. Use the resulting tank mixture in accordance with the more restrictive label limitations and precautions of the mixed products. Make applications in accordance with those label instructions that are consistent for each product. To prepare the tank mix, add the tank mix partner first and make sure it is well mixed and in suspension, then add the correct amount of NyGuard® IGR Concentrate according to the label instructions below. Do not tank mix with Vapona or Malathion. These products are antagonistic to NyGuard® IGR Concentrate's active ingredient.

GENERAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Use NyGuard® IGR Concentrate both indoors and outdoors as a general surface spray, ULV/fog or space spray application, spot treatment or crack and crevice application. Application may be made using power sprayers, hand pump sprayers, void injectors, in carpet shampoo, using a paintbrush, roller, professional foam applicator, or similar device.

SURFACE APPLICATIONS:

Apply diluted spray as a spot treatment, broadcast surface application and crack and crevice spray. Thoroughly treat areas where insects travel, breed, rest, hide or harbor. Special attention should be paid to applying spray solution to harborage and hiding places where conditions support insect population growth and reproduction.

FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR CONTROL OF LISTED CRAWLING INSECTS SUCH AS FLEAS, TICKS, BEETLES AND OTHER LISTED INSECTS:

NyGuard IGR Concentrate breaks the reproductive cycle by acting on the immature life stages of fleas, ticks, beetles and other crawling insects, preventing the successful development of adult insects. Flea eggs and flea larvae that contact treated areas will not develop into adult fleas. NyGuard IGR Concentrate reduces egg production and hatch and disrupts the molting process of tick larvae and engorged tick nymphs. NyGuard® IGR Concentrate is a valuable component of an integrated program to control fleas, beetles, ticks and other crawling insects. If application is being made in food areas, read and follow the "FOOD HANDLING ESTABLISHMENT APPLICATIONS" instructions in this label. PREVENTATIVE FLEA TREATMENT: NyGuard IGR Concentrate can be used as a preventative treatment prior to the flea season. Application of this product in areas where pets and other animals are known to frequent and where previous infestations have been known to occur will reduce the emergence of adult fleas and also control immature stages of fleas. Indoor treatments of NyGuard IGR Concentrate provide up to 7 months of residual flea control, so this early usage could reduce the need for conventional insecticides when used alone as directed. Apply as a surface application at the rate of 4 to 8 ml. in one gallon of water (or sufficient volume of water to get adequate coverage) to treat 1,500 square feet.

FOR CONTROL OF LISTED COCKROACHES, CRICKETS:

NyGuard IGR Concentrate acts on the immature life stages and prevents nymphal cockroaches and crickets from developing into reproductive adults. Shortly after application of this concentrate, cockroaches with twisted wings and other deformities will begin to appear, indicating that NyGuard IGR Concentrate has taken effect-- those cockroaches are unable to reproduce. May be used in a program with cockroach baits such as Vendetta Cockroach Gel Bait. One treatment works for 6 months against cockroach nymphs and crickets. If application is being made in food areas, read and follow the "FOOD HANDLING ESTABLISHMENT APPLICATIONS" instructions in this label.

General Surface Application (including Broadcast, Spot and Crack & Crevice):

Apply as a surface application at the rate of 11 ml. in one gallon of water to treat 1,500 square feet. Apply diluted spray as a spot treatment, surface application and crack and crevice spray. Treat all areas where target insects are known or suspected to travel, rest, hide or harbor. Tank mix with an adulticide to provide immediate control of adult stages. Contact as many insects as possible with this spray. Special attention should be paid to hiding places such as beneath sinks, behind and beneath stoves and refrigerators, cracks and crevices, around garbage cans, cabinets, along the outside of baseboards, door and window sills, door and window frames and floors, around and on drains, pipes, plumbing, behind bookcases, storage and other utility installation areas, and the inside of cabinets and closets hitting insects with spray whenever possible. Repeat application in 6 months, or more frequently if necessary. 

FOR CONTROL OF LISTED STORED PRODUCT PESTS:

(including Indian Meal Moths, Rice Moths, Tobacco Moths, Red Flour Beetles, Confused Flour Beetles, Lesser Grain Borers, Merchant Grain Beetles, Saw-toothed Grain Beetles, Warehouse Beetles, Cigarette Beetles, Dermestid Beetles). If application is being made in food areas, read and follow the "FOOD HANDLING ESTABLISHMENT APPLICATIONS" instructions in this label.

General Surface Application (including Broadcast, Spot and Crack & Crevice):

Apply as a surface application at the rate of 8 ml. in one gallon of water to treat 1,500 square feet. Use up to 11 ml. per 1,500 square feet for insect populations that are difficult to control or in conditions that make it difficult to get control target pests. Apply diluted spray as a spot treatment, surface application and crack and crevice spray. Treat all areas where target insects are known or suspected to travel, rest, hide or harbor such as cracks and crevices in walls and floors, under and between pallets, areas at the base of machinery and equipment, under furniture, in mop and equipment closets, behind cabinets, behind and under refrigerators, sinks, stoves, drawers under shelves and racks, around pipes and openings in floors and walls, along baseboards, in wall voids, and other areas where insects seek harborage. Since NyGuard® IGR Concentrate is stable and not volatile, spot, and/or crack and crevice treatment may be used while a food processing facility is in operation, provided exposed food is covered or removed from the area being treated prior to application. Tank mix with an adulticide to provide immediate control of adult stages. Contact as many insects as possible. Repeat application in 6 months, or more frequently if necessary.

FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR CONTROL OF LISTED FLYING INSECTS SUCH AS MOTHS, MOSQUITOES AND SMALL NUISANCE FLIES:

NyGuard IGR Concentrate decreases the number of eggs laid by treated adults and reduces hatch rates. Larvae show physiological and functional defects leading to the inability to develop into normal adults. When used alone treatment will result in a reduction in adult fly populations after 3 to 4 weeks, when previously hatched adult flies have died naturally. Apply spray dilution to known and suspected breeding sites (such as moist areas with decaying organic matter), as well as areas where these insects are known to travel, rest, hide or harbor.

FOR CONTROL OF ANTS:

General Surface Application Indoors:

NyGuard IGR Concentrate may be used as part of an integrated approach to control ants. Apply broadcast, spot or crack and crevice treatments of NyGuard IGR Concentrate at the rate of 11 ml. diluted in water per 1,500 square feet to interior areas where ants are actively foraging and traveling. May be used in conjunction with baits and/or residual treatments. If application is being made in food areas, read and follow the "FOOD HANDLING ESTABLISHMENT APPLICATIONS" instructions in this label.

Outdoor Application:

Apply as an outdoor surface application (including Broadcast, Spot and Crack & Crevice) at the rate of 11 ml. of concentrate in one gallon of water (or sufficient volume of water to get adequate coverage) to treat 1,500 square feet. Alternate mixing directions for outdoor power spraying are to use 56 ml. of concentrate per 50 gallons of water. For building perimeter applications, apply in a band 2-6 feet adjacent to and around the structure and apply to a height of 2-3 feet on the foundation where ants may travel or find entrance. Apply directly to known or suspected ant forage, trails and forage sites. Treat ant mounds or nests directly, with a wetting spray. NyGuard® IGR Concentrate may be used in a program with baits or an in a tank mix combination with adulticide insecticide.
