BASF has announced that its popular insecticide Fendona 6 SC has returned to the market from today, providing professional pest controllers with a quick, effective solution.
The fast-acting pyrethroid insecticide features a unique active ingredient, alpha-cypermethrin, that eliminates a variety of insects.
A member of the synthetic pyrethroid family, Fendona’s proven high-performance formulation disrupts the central nervous system of target species. This provides a rapid knockdown effect delivering results within just 30-60 minutes of treatment.
Suitable for use in both rural and urban environments, the reintroduction of the long-lasting residual spray will play a pivotal role in the rotation of insecticide treatments to slow down insecticide resistance across the country.
Laurence Barnard, country business manager for BASF’s Professional & Specialty Solutions, said: “We’re really pleased to announce that Fendona 6 SC is now available after a number of years off the market.
“Fendona 6 SC was approved under the Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR) in 2019, but the approval was restricted to use in poultry houses only, so BASF took the decision to discontinue the product pending the extension of the authorisation for use in urban pest situations.
“We are delighted that Fendona 6 SC is now authorised for use against a wide range of pests in these additional situations including domestic and large commercial buildings.”
