Spectre 2 SC, manufactured by Control Solutions, is a non-repellent insecticide that kills a variety of pests and provides a long-residual control of 4 weeks.  

This low odor product contains the active ingredient chlorfenapyr 21.45%, which serves as a fantastic killer of pests like ants, cockroaches and bed bugs. The main active ingredient is undetectable to target pests, meaning they are not able to smell it, taste it, or more importantly avoid it allowing for a majority of infestation to come into contact with treated areas for total elimination.

Spectre 2 SC ensures total protection of treated areas such as packaging plants, but hooved animals as well.

Tools Needed

To use Spectre 2 SC you will need to mix the product into a tank sprayer (hand-pump, backpack). For larger jobs, use a professional pesticide spraying rig.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much Spectre 2 SC to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the treatment areas length and width in feet then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For most general pest control applications, the recommended rate is 1.5 to 3 oz of Spectre 2 SC to 1 gallon of water depending on the infestation, level of concentration you desire and type of pest. 1 gallon of finished product will typically cover 1,000 sq ft.
• Step 2: Fill a sprayer tank halfway with the required amount of water and then add the appropriate amount of Spectre 2 SC to the sprayer and fill with the remainder of the water. Close the sprayer and shake it up so the product is well-mixed.
• Step 3: Apply the Spectre 2 SC mixed solution generously to target areas to control your pest issue. Change spray settings depending on where you are spraying (pin stream for cracks and crevices, fan stream for outdoor areas.

Where to Use

Spectre can be used both indoors and outdoors. When treating indoors for termites, ants, cockroaches, spiders and other common household pests, apply the diluted Spectre 2 SC solution with a coarse low-pressure spray directly into cracks and crevices where pests typically hide.

For outdoor treatments, focus your application on cracks and crevices surrounding doors, windows, eaves, attic vents, utility entrances and anywhere else insects might gain access into your home.

When to Use

Use Spectre 2 SC if you are looking to address a termite invasion or a broad range of other pest problems and want a product that is effective and fast-acting.

Keep children and pets out of treated areas until 24 hours have passed after application.

Special Considerations

Remember that Spectre is intended for spot treatments and should not be used as a broadcast spray indoors or a full perimeter application outdoors. Apply Spectre no more than once every four weeks indoors and every 6 months outdoors.
