Mosquito Bits is a highly selective microbial insecticide (BTI)
effective against mosquitoes in a variety of habitats. Kills the larvae
of mosquitoes that transmit West Nile Virus, Zika Virus, Chikungunya,
Encephalitis, Malaria, and Dengue Fever. Spread over the surface of
water to release the biological mosquito larvicide. This larvicide
gradually settles in the water where it is eaten by mosquito larvae
growing there. The BITS will give a quick kill of existing mosquito
larvae within 24 hours. Re-apply every 7 to 14 days for maximum control.
Mosquito Bits are approved for application to areas that contain
aquatic life, fish and plants. BITS may also be applied to areas used by
or in contact with humans, animals, horses, livestock, pets, birds or
wildlife. Apply to standing water found near the home such as water
gardens, tree holes, stock tanks, animal watering troughs, rain barrels,
bird baths, roof gutters, etc. Perfect for areas where standing water
cannot easily be controlled such as fallen leaves, swampy areas, and
vehicle tracks in turf. Sprinkle over bromeliads, pitcher plants, and
other areas where small amounts of water turn into mosquito breeding
grounds. Harmless to plants, pets, beneficial insects, honeybees, fish
or wildlife. Mosquito Bits are also approved and labeled as a biological
control for fungus gnat larvae in planters and soils. Kills fungus gnat
larvae in soil without synthetic toxins.
