Altriset Insecticide

Features a non-repellent formulation that stops feeding within hours of exposure; termites’ mouthparts become paralyzed shortly after contacting treated soil, and damage ceases soon after

Its delayed toxicity means exposed termites that have stopped feeding can still walk, groom and aggregate in groups for an extended period of time, increasing the chances for Altriset to spread among colony members

Provides timely control that lasts -- laboratory observations showed that when non-exposed (recipients) termite workers of R. hesperus were put together with exposed termites (donors), 100 percent mortality of both exposed and unexposed groups was observed within seven days

Has a low impact on non-target beneficial organisms, such as honey bees and earthworms, when used in accordance with the label

When used in accordance with the label, Altriset controls termites in less than three months and provides long-lasting residual structural protection

Altriset is the first liquid soil-applied termiticide to be registered as reduced-risk for use on termites by the U.S. EPA under its Reduced-Risk Pesticide Program*

Altriset has an excellent environmental profile, with one of the lowest use rates per finished gallon
