Mosquito Bits are little pieces of a highly effective biopesticide that works in standing water to kill mosquito larvae and in soil or growing media to kill fungus gnat larvae. When applied to water, it will release Bacillus thuringiensis sp israelensis (Bti), a naturally occurring bacterium that acts as a species-specific larvicide. As it dissipates in the water, the larvae that's present will feed on it and perish within 24 hours. After application Mosquito Bits will provide control that will last up to 14 days in water with low to moderate organic content.
These little bits of Bti can be applied nearly anywhere that standing water can be found, including but not limited to, unused swimming pools, flowerpots and saucers, bird baths, animal watering troughs, old automobile tires, ditches, ponds and rain barrels. It only takes a small amount of water for mosquito larvae to grow in, so it should be applied wherever there is stagnant water no matter how small an area that might be. Mosquito Bits may be applied to areas that contain aquatic life, fish, and plants and to areas used by or in contact with humans, animals, livestock, pets, birds, or wildlife. The one exception is that they cannot be applied to treated, finished drinking water receptacles or reservoirs where the water is intended for human consumption.
- Will kill mosquito species that transmit West Nile Virus, Malaria, Dengue Fever and Zika Virus.
- This product will only affect the targeted larvae and is harmless to other living creatures or plant life.
