Alpine PT Insecticide Aerosol
Alpine PT Insecticide Aerosol
Alpine PT Insecticide Aerosol is a reduced risk non-repellent aerosol for contact control of crawling and flying insects. PT Alpine aerosol is effective against insecticide-resistant bed bugs.
Alpine pressurized insecticide, manufactured by BASF, is the only Reduced Risk non-repellent aerosol labeled for use against crawling and flying insects.
The main active ingredient in Alpine is Dinotefuran 0.5% which kills pests on contact.
Alpine PT Insecticide Aerosol can also be used in crack & crevice areas, so it should be considered effective as a contact spray only.
Tools Needed
There are no tools needed to use Alpine PT. Make sure that you wear chemical rated gloves and a dust mask.
How to Use
- Step 1: Alpine PT can be applied as a spot application or as a crack & crevice application where pests are harboring. Before application, put on your gloves and safety mask and remove everyone, including pets, from the area you are treating.
- Step 2: For spot applications, spray the Alpine Pressurized Insecticide directly onto the insect. For crack and crevice applications, attach the supplied actuator (application tip or injection tube) and then apply the Alpine Pressurized Insecticide directly to the crack & crevice areas that you are treating.
- Step 3: Allow 30 minutes to 1 hour for the chemicals to dry before allowing anyone into the treated areas.
