Mosquito Bits 30 oz

Are you ready for a product that kills mosquitos during the larvae stage before they are large enough to bite and transmit disease? Then Mosquito Bits are the product that you've been looking for.

Mosquito Bits contain BTI which is specifically designed to kill mosquitos at their larvae stage. Mosquito Bits are a highly selective microbial insecticide (BTI) that are effective against mosquitoes in a variety of habitats. Mosquito Bits are designed to kill the larvae of mosquitoes that transmit West Nile Virus, Zika Virus, Chikungunya, Encephalitis, Malaria, and Dengue Fever. As the Mosquito Bits dissolve the BTI spreads over the surface of the water and this is how it releases the biological mosquito larvicide. This larvicide gradually settles in the water where it is eaten by mosquito larvae growing there.

B.T.I. is a bacterium that controls mosquitoes and black flies in their larval filter-feeding stage of development. The larvae die after consuming the bacteria that causes a disease specific to them but are harmless to all other forms of wildlife.
