An Insecticide for Control of Grain Insects.

INSECTO can be used on stored wheat, corn, barley, rice, buckwheat, oats, flax, peas, sorghum (Milo), feed, seed, rye, soybeans, popcorn, peanuts, cocoa beans, feed grains and dry edible beans.

INSECTO kills exposed stages of the following stored grain insects: rice weevil, granary weevil, flat grain beetle, rusty grain beetle, sawtoothed grain beetle, merchant grain beetle, lesser grain beetle, lesser grain borer, larger grain borer, red flour beetle, cigarette beetle, angoumois grain moths, darling beetles, lessor meal worms.
INSECTO is also effective on the newly-hatched larvae of stored grain insects such as indian meal moth, red flour beetle and sawtoothed grain beetle.

Product Features

  • Immediately after the bin is filled and the grain is leveled, apply INSECTO as a surface treatment at a rate of 4 pounds/1000sq. ft. (a 24 ft. bin requires only 2 pounds of INSECTO). This “top dressing” will act as a protective barrier from migrating insects which enter the bin from the top.
  • To control accessible stages of Indian meal moth and anguomois moths, apply at monthly intervals upon their first appearance. In cases of severe infestation, break up webbing with a rake before dusting and apply a second application within two weeks thereafter.
  • INSECTO is derived from saltwater diatomaceous earth (DE). It is refined to INSECTO’s specifications maximizing its insect-killing benefits.
  • INSECTO is an odorless and non-staining powder (dust) and is effective at killing insects as long as it is present and kept dry. INSECTO is non-explosive.
