Transport Mikron

Transport Mikron, manufactured by FMC Corporation, is a microemulsion insecticide designed to control termites, ants, and more.

The active ingredients bifenthrin and acetamiprid create a non-repellent residual barrier that kills insects quickly. Its micro-emulsion effect makes particle size smaller than other micro-encapsulated insecticides, providing more coverage and making it easily absorbed by insects.

Transport Mikron does not require frequent agitation, as it remains mixed, even after not being used for long periods. This insecticide provides fast results with long-term effects and will not leave residue on treated surfaces.

Tools Needed

It would be best to use a backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, or professional skid sprayer to make applications.

When using Transport Mikron as a certified professional to control termites by trenching, a shovel or dirt removal tool and a wheelbarrow are needed.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much Transport Mikron you will need to mix 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 general household applications, mix 1.25 fl. oz. of Transport Mikron in 1 gallon of water to treat 1,000 sq. ft. So, for example, if you have a 3,000 sq. ft. area to treat, you would need 3.75 oz. of Transport Mikron mixed in 3 gallons of water. Refer to the label for specific application rates.
• Step 2: Fill your sprayer halfway with the required amount of water and then add the correct measured amount of Transport Mikron to the spray tank. Add the remaining half of water, close the lid, and then shake the sprayer so the solution is well-mixed. You are now ready to spray.
• Step 3: Apply the Transport Mikron solution as a pinstream, spot, crack and crevice, or perimeter spray where pests have been observed or are expected to be active. For bed bugs, you can apply Transport Mikron to infested mattresses or box springs. Retreatment may be necessary to achieve and maintain control during periods of high pest pressure. Repeat application is needed only if there are signs of renewed insect activity.

Where to Use

The areas where Transport Mikron can be applied vary depending on the targeted insect being controlled. It can be used indoors and outdoors to control various insects. When used indoors, it can be applied as a crack and crevice treatment around windows, doors, furniture, cabinets, under appliances, around plumbing pipes, flooring, closets, and other areas. Transport Mikron cannot be used as a broadcast spray when applied indoors.

When applied outdoors, Transport Mikron can be applied around the perimeter of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. It can also be applied to cracks and crevices around windows, porches, patios, eaves, doors, weep holes, and other areas to create a residual barrier.

When used as a professional termiticide, it can be applied by trenching and rodding.

When to Use

Transport Mikron can be applied as a prevention method before targeted insect activity is confirmed. It can also be applied after targeted insects are suspected. When applied as a termiticide, it must be used by licensed pest control.
