Cyzmic CS Insecticide
Cyzmic CS Insecticide is a dual-action micro-encapsulated concentrated spray used to treat indoor and outdoor areas for various types of insects. It provides a quick knockdown and long-lasting insecticidal barrier.
09/13/25
Cyzmic CS Insecticide, manufactured by Control Solutions Inc., is designed to kill many common household insects. The encapsulated formula has thin, thick walls surrounding the active ingredient to provide a controlled release effect. The droplets with thick encapsulation help provide long-term effects, while the thin walls provide a quick knockdown.
Cyzmic CS is excellent for killing insects on turf, lawns, and ornamental gardens. It can also be applied indoors as a crack-and-crevice treatment. It has a low odor, making it ideal for sensitive areas. It is great as a preventative and quick knockdown method when combating the most challenging insects, such as ants, fleas, roaches, bagworms, and more.
Tools Needed
You will need a backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, or skid sprayer. We recommend using a handheld pump sprayer for indoor crack-and-crevice treatments.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Cyzmic CS Insecticide to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. You can do this by measuring the length and width in feet and then multiplying them together (length x width = square footage). This will determine the amount of product you will need to use. The mix rate will vary depending on whether you are treating for specific pests or perimeter treatment. You will mix 0.2 to 0.8 fluid ounces of Cyzmic per gallon of water. Each mixture should treat 1,000 square feet.
- Step 2: After calculating the amount of Cyzmic you need, you can create a solution. Fill your spray tank halfway with water. Add the measured amount of Cyzmic, then fill your tank the rest of the way with water. Close the container and shake well to finish making your solution.
- Step 3: Once mixed, you can apply your solution. For best results, apply thoroughly until wet but not to the point of runoff. A coarse, low-pressure spray setting is recommended. For indoor applications, Cyzmic can be reapplied every 21 days as needed.
Where to Use
Cyzmic CS Insecticide is ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial use. It can also be applied outdoors as a perimeter treatment to flowerbeds, turf, and lawns. Cyzmic CS is a great crack-and-crevice or spot treatment for indoor or outdoor use.
It can be applied around window sills, eaves of roofs, on porches, patios, under crawl spaces, doorways, along baseboards, inside kitchen or bathroom cabinets, under appliances, and other label-approved areas. It can be used in schools, stores, factories, warehouses, and other nonfood/nonfeed areas. It is also ideal for transportation equipment such as trucks, trailers, aircraft, and buses.
When to Use
This product can be used as a preventative treatment and sprayed before insect activity is evident. It can also be used as a quick knockdown and applied after insect activity is found. Because it has a low odor, Cyzmic CS is great to use when sensitive areas need treatment. Do not apply Cyzmic CS during rainy weather, as it will weaken the effects.
Safety Information
Cyzmic CS Insecticide is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing or applying this product.
Keep people and pets out of treated areas until the spray deposits have dried.
Special Considerations
Cyzmic CS Insecticide is a controlled-release insecticide with a low odor, making it safe to use in food service and food handling areas. Do not apply more than 52.4 fluid ounces per acre per year.
