Broaden your business with solutions for lawn and landscape pests

While structure-invading pests can be stressful enough, lawn pests can provide a double assault on customers and become a nuisance by significantly damaging turf and ornamentals around their homes. Syngenta has a complete portfolio of trusted lawn pest control products that will allow you to grow your business by offering control of both turf and structural pests.

Tandem: controlling pests from cupboard to curb

Tandem® insecticide is labeled to control more than 90 different pests, including turf and landscape pests. Its iCAP™ technology formulation features smaller microcaps that release one of its active ingredients, lambda-cyhalothrin, quickly for immediate control, while larger microcaps release slowly for residual control. Its other active ingredient, thiamethoxam, offers systemic activity that allows Tandem to be quickly distributed within plants to control honeydew-producing insects with piercing or sucking mouthparts, like aphids. This also helps control ants that rely on honeydew producers as a major food source.

Advion insect granule: taking care of problem pests

Advion® insect granule is labeled to control pests like house crickets, field crickets, cockroaches, silverfish, mole crickets and nuisance ants. Its non-repellent, low-odor formulation as bait granules is designed to control insects in heavily mulched areas and turfgrass, while its targeted active ingredient has a minimal impact on non-target insect species. Advion insect granule is effective when used outdoors as a broadcast, perimeter or boundary treatment in places like residential and commercial landscaped areas, parks, recreational areas and athletic fields.

Advion fire ant bait: now labeled for use on turf in sod farms and horse pastures

Keep fire ants under control as the weather gets warmer with the total colony control of Advion fire ant bait. Featuring a fast-acting formulation, Advion fire ant bait can achieve total colony control within 24-72 hours – faster than any other fire ant bait on the market. The product can be applied as a broadcast or mound treatment in institutional, recreation or private service areas, and has granted a supplemental label by the Environmental Protection Agency to be used in turf on sod farms and pastures grazed by horses and other companion animals.
