Optigard Flex Liquid insecticide goes beyond exterior walls. Because pests go beyond exterior walls. The product's unique, non- repellent chemistry, low use rates, and versatile application methods allow efficient, effective control of pests both indoors and out. Since Optigard Flex is labeled for both indoor and outdoor use, it cuts down on the number of products you need to control an infestation. It's even versatile enough to be applied as a liquid perimeter spray, spot spray, foam treatment, or crack-and-crevice application--setting a new standard for general pest control.
Optigard Flex Liquid Insecticide is particularly effective against social insects such as ants (except Pharoah and Carpenter Ants), but can be used to control a variety of nuisance insect pests such as cockroaches, beetles, earwigs, boxelder bugs, fire ants, etc.
Optigard Flex may be applied as a perimeter band, as a spot spray, as a mound drench, and to voids to control a wide range of insects. It may also be applied to trees and shrubs to control honeydew producing insects that ants use as a primary food source.
Optigard Flex offers a true flexibility in treating ants and nuisance insects both in and around structures.
Optigard Flex uses the same active ingredient, thiamethoxam, as Optigard Ant Gel Bait. Because the product is non-repellent, nuisance pests won't avoid it. Optigard Flex's chemistry permits the active ingredient to be efficiently transferred throughout social insect populations. It is approved for indoor and outdoor treatments and can be applied as a liquid or a foam.
Optigard Highlights:
- Controls broad range of economically important pests, including ants, cockroaches, and drywood termites
- Versatile formulation that goes where it's needed - inside or outside, as a liquid or foam
- No limit on the timing of applications
- Systemic activity in plants helps control honeydew-producing insects that serve as food source for ant pests
- Advanced non-repellent chemistry which transfers throughout social insect populations for better control with less product
Recent tests at the University of Georgia have demonstrated that thiamethoxam transfers from exposed ants to unexposed ants as well as fipronil and significantly better than chlorfenapyr. During testing, a cohort of Argentine ants was exposed to a lethal dose of each insecticide. The dead ants were placed in a colony not previously exposed to the insecticide and secondary kill of recipient ants was determined.
This high-performance insecticide is ideal for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. It allows you to make more targeted applications, use less active ingredient, and have lower environmental impact.
With Optigard Flex, application timing is not limited for commercial or residential accounts. That means you have the flexibility to apply when it's needed--where it's needed. Plus, by using a backpack or handheld sprayer, you can leave behind higher-cost power sprayers and improve fuel efficiency without sacrificing treatment results.
