Pyrofos 20, manufactured by CSI, is a microencapsulated water-based formulation that provides a stronger, longer residual and broad-spectrum elimination of insects in industrial and livestock areas.
Made with the active ingredient chlorpyrifos 20.0%, this organophosate product will slowly release to control agricultural soil-borne insects. Once these pest come into contact with this products active ingredient they will start to convulse, respiratory system becomes paralyzed, and eventual death.
Pyrofos 20 is ideal for general broad-spectrum insect control through spot application, crack and crevice treatment, and perimeter treatments.
Tools Needed
To apply Pyrofos 20, you will need to use a compressed air backpack sprayer or power spray equipment. For spot applications, we recommend using a handheld pump sprayer for complete control to avoid drift.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Pyrofos 20 to use by calculating the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width in feet and multiply (length X width = square footage). For light infestations, use 1.5 oz. of Pyrofos 20 per gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. Residual control of heavy infestations will use 3.0 oz. of product per gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. When used as a spot treatment, do not exceed 2 sq. ft. per individual spot. Refer to the label for specific application rates.
- Step 2: Shake Pyrofos 20 container before using. First, add half the amount of water to the spray tank, pour in the appropriate amount of Pyrofos 20, then add the remaining half of water. Close the spray tank lid and agitate until solution is thoroughly mixed. Agitate the sprayer frequently during spray applications.
- Step 3: Adjust the spray nozzle to produce a fine narrow mist for uniform spot application, crack and crevice treatment, or injection into voids where insects may hiding. To prevent infestations of buildings, treat band of soil at 6 to 10 ft. wide around and adjacent to the building. Also treat the buildings foundation at a height of 2 to 3 ft. Wait for 7 days before reapplying product.

Pyrofos 20 may be used in and around (within 6 to 10 feet) of the following sites: calf hutches, calving pens, parlors, cargo holds of ships, empty chicken houses, food and non-food areas of manufacturing, industrial plants and food processing plants, hog barns, milk rooms, railroad boxcars, and commercial indoor treatments. Apply as a spot treatment along the edges of carpet, under carpet, under furniture and throw rugs, crack and crevices, void areas, moist areas, openings around pipes, sinks and under refrigerators. Apply as a crack and crevice treatment in closets, cabinets, pantries, wall voids, in machinery, around doors, window frames, weep holes, under siding, and shelving where infested items are stored.
This product may be used in non-food areas such as boiler rooms, garbage rooms, drains (to sewers), entries and vestibules, machine rooms, garages, mop closets, and storage (after canning or bottling).
