Pyrid Insecticide Aerosol, manufactured by Solutions Pest and Lawn, is a ready-to-use spray insecticide that begins killing insects like ants, fruit flies, flies, or spiders on contact. This ready to use insecticide aerosol contains the natural ingredient 0.5% pyrethrins, and 4% PBO (pipronyl butoxide) a synergist, making it safer than most other pesticide aerosol chemicals.

This insecticide is a synthetic pyrethroid that works by interfering with the labeled insects' central nervous system, resulting in an immediate knockdown and killing of the pest within minutes. The PBO in Pyrid is a powerful synergist that increases the efficacy of the insecticide for an easy to use and practical space and flushing spray.

Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use to eliminate pests such as bed bugs, roaches, and spiders. With an included applicator straw, Pyrid Aerosol insecticide makes reaching pests in cracks and crevices easy. This spray not only works for control over pests like ants, but this ant and roach spray also kills other pests like wasps from a safe distance of approxiametely 18". 

Pyrid Insecticide Aerosol provides two application methods of pest control by flushing hard to reach pests in out of reach areas or as a direct spray contact to quickly knockdown potentially harmful pests like fruit flies in and around your home. Safe enough to use in food prepping areas and strong enough to kill on contact, Pyrid Aerosol is the best aerosol product for the best price.

For space sprays, you will apply Pyrid Insecticide Aerosol at a rate of 1-3 seconds per 1,000 cubic feet for flying insects, or at a rate of 20 seconds per 1,000 cubic feet for crawling insects. You can find the cubic footage of your treatment space by multiplying the spaces length, width, and height. Do not apply more than 1 time per day.
• Step 2: For direct spraying, apply Pyrid Insecticide Aerosol in short bursts from a distance of 18-24 inches from the target surface, making sure not to exceed 10 seconds of spray per room or 10 seconds per 100 cubic feet in commercial areas.
