SKEETER is a unique and innovative organic mosquito control product. It combines botanical oils (garlic and soybean) and beneficial nematodes (Heterorhabditis megidis) for quick and complete control of larvae and pupae and lasting protection. The botanical oils in SKEETER are well known and very effective tools for mosquito control; they work as suffocants and kill on contact. These oils will make short work of young adults that have recently transitioned from pupae but have yet to leave the area. The nematodes in SKEETER offer a long-lasting solution for the eggs and larvae. Here's how they work:
- Once applied, specialized in-vitro juvenile nematodes search out mosquito larvae.
- When they locate the larvae, immediate infection is initiated as the juvenile nematodes enter the larvae through numerous small openings on the larvae body.
- Once inside the larvae, the juvenile nematodes instantly release a symbiotic bacterium into the larvae bloodstream.
- This bacterium initiates septicemia and kills their insect hosts, this complete process happens within 48 hours after infection.
- Nematodes multiply off the food source of the larvae, which extends the efficacy of SKEETER to 30 days.
This amazing product can be used on turf and plants and can be applied directly to water. Use it on the banks of rivers and ponds, stagnant/standing water, sewage, water pipes, drainage areas, old vehicle tires and anywhere else mosquitoes breed.
