Nyguard IGR Concentrate
Nyguard IGR Concentrate
Nyguard IGR Concentrate is a versatile insect growth regulator that has a unique mode of action to break the life cycle of insect infestations. Prevents future egg laying, larvae, and nymphs of pests from maturing into adults.
Nyguard IGR Concentrate, manufactured by MGK, is an excellent juvenille hormone mimic that stops egg laying activities and future adult activities of over 50 types of insects both indoors and outdoors.
With its active ingredient 2-[1-Methyl-2-(4-phenoxyphenoxy) ethoxy] pyridine 10.00%, this insect growth regulator works by getting to the root cause of the pest infestation - the eggs, larvae, and nymphs which turn into reproductive adults. Insects like cockroaches, ants, and mosquitoes that enter treated areas will result in abnormal growth development leading to sterility or death upon contact and up to 7 months after application.
Nyguard IGR Concentrate is a odorless insect growth regulator liquid that delivers excellent results of pest infestations with minimum risks. This broad-spectrum product may also be with another non-IGR insecticide for wider adult pest coverage and help to reduce overall pest population size.
Tools Needed
Depending on your intended application method, you will need a pump sprayer, backpack sprayer, void injectors, in carpet shampoo, paintbrush, roller professional foam applictor, ULV/fogging machine, or foaming sprayer to apply Nyguard IGR Concentrate.
How to Use
- Step 1: Close the area to be treated and shut off ventilation systems prior to application. Determine how much Nyguard IGR Concentrate to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For general broadcast, spot, or crack and crevice applications, mix 4 ml of Nyguard Insect Growth Regulator per one gallon of water per 1,500 square feet. You may also mix Nyguard Insect Growth Regulator with your chosen insecticide solution. Be sure to read the selected insecticide label for further mix rates and application methods.
- Step 2: Place half the amount of required water into your selected spray tank device, then pour in the measured amount Nyguard Insect Growth Regulator, and fill the rest of the way with remaining half of water. Close the sprayer lid and shake to ensure even agitation.
- Step 3: Apply solution as a coarse, wetting spray to labeled areas. Monitor the pest activity. Depending on the severity of you infestation, you may have to make repeat applications at 2 to 4 week intervals. Read all label directions for Nyguard and any pesticide you use along with this IGR to prevent over applying. Ventilated treated areas before re-entry.

When to Use

Safety Information
Nyguard IGR Concentrate 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.
Do not allow children or pets to contact treated surfaces until spray has thoroughly dried.
Special Considerations
Remember that Nyguard IGR Concentrate is an insect growth regultor, not a killing pesticide. This will prevent younger insects from maturing and sterilize adults. While this alone can be enough to control moderate infestations, it can take up to a month before you notice less activity. Use Nyguard with a pesticide that will kill adult insects to get control faster.
This product sterilizes adult insects rather than killing them, it can take up to 4 weeks before you might notice a dip in activity.

Keith's Pro Tips | "Nyguard IGR can be mixed with other pesticides that are labelled to target adult pests. This is a great option to get total control. The pesticide for adults will take care of them, while the Nyguard will target any young stages of insects that missed treatment, preventing a re-infestation." |
Product Drawbacks | Nyguard IGR is not an adulticide. This will not kill any adult insect pests, but will instead render them sterile. |

Q:Does it work outside in the light? or only in places that are in the shade? since it's photo sensitive.5/9/17A:Outdoor Application: Apply as a surface application (including Broadcast, Spot and Crack & Crevice) at the rate of 4 ml. in one gallon of water (or sufficient volume of water to get adequate coverage) to treat 1,000 square feet. Use up to 12 ml. per 1,000 square feet for insect populations that are difficult to control or in conditions that make it difficult to get control of target pests. Alternate mixing directions for power spraying are to use 18 to 56 ml. of concentrate per 50 gallons of water. Apply to surfaces where insects breed, travel, rest, hide or harbor. Treat known and suspected breeding sites on, under and around exterior surfaces of buildings, walls, window frames, around garbage cans, eaves, cracks and crevices, porches, decks, gazebos, patios, carports, garages, stagnant water, moist/ shaded areas, fence lines, and other areas where target insects are active or may be hiding. Since NyGuard� IGR Concentrate is photo-stable, outdoor applications on soil surfaces will provide residual IGR activity, depending upon soil type and weather conditions.
