DuraFlex CS, manufactured by CSI, is an excellent choice to control many species of common household and hard to kill pests such as fleas, flies, mosquitos, and other species of insects around the inside and outside of your home or commercial building.

This low-odor product contains a microencapsulated solution that works to eliminate and prevent targeted insects populations from reproducing within your turf. To do this, DuraFlex CS is the first microencapsulated insecticide that contains three modes of actions bifenthrin 3.95%, novaluron 1.3%, and pyriproxyfen 1.3% that will break the life cycle of the pests by inhibiting their ability to grow and reproduce.

As a controlled release product, DuraFlex CS is formulated with thin and thick capsule walls that allows for immediate release of the product within the application area for a quick elimination of targeted insects and also for some of the product to slowly release over a period of weeks to provide long-lasting control.

Tools Needed

To apply DuraFlex CS, you will need to use either a backpack or handheld sprayer. For small application areas, we recommend using a handheld 1-gallon sprayer.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much DuraFlex CS you will need to apply by calculating the square footage of your application site. To do this, measure the length and width in feet of your application area and multiply them together (length X width = square footage). Depending on the targeted pest and application area, DuraFlex CS can be mixed at 1 fl. oz. of product per gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. For specific rates, refer to the label. Applications to building foundations are restricted to a maximum height of 3 feet and within a band of 6-10 feet wide adjacent to buildings structure.
• Step 2: Fill your selected sprayer halfway with the required amount of water based on your calculations then add the appropriate measured amount of DuraFlex CS. Fill the sprayer the with the remaining half of water, close the lid, and then agitate the sprayer to evenly mix the solution. Do not allow the mixture to stand overnight. Cannot be applied by aircraft, handheld or truck mounted cold aerosol ULV sprayers and thermal fogging devices.
• Step 3: Apply the DuraFlex CS mixture in a coarse, low-pressure spray to application area, avoid run-off. Treat the inside of your home or structure with spot applications as instructed by the product label and apply as a crack/crevice treatment or spot treatment on the outside of your building. Do not spray into the air; only spray towards specific application sites as permitted on the label. For inside applications, remove all food products and objects from treatment area and do not replace until spray mixture is dry or until 24 hours have passed. For overhead applications, cover your floor with plastic sheeting or similar materials.
• Step 4: For continued insect activity, you may reapply 7 days after the first application. For continued mosquito activity, do not reapply more than once every 14 days.
