Description
BVA 2 Mosquito Larvicide Oil is a highly refined oil used primarily to control immature mosquitoes. When applied evenly over the water surface it rapidly interrupts the air water interface and suffocates the larvae and pupae. This quick action makes it an effective larvicide and pupicide for any program.
Where and When to Use BVA 2 Mosquito Larvicide Oil:
Use BVA 2 Mosquito Larvicide Oil when mosquito larvae and pupae are present in these areas: swamps, marshes, flood water areas, drainage areas, waste treatment facilities, settling ponds, ditches, and other manmade depressions containing stagnant water pools including abandoned swimming pools, fountains and ponds. This oil provides a short residual period of 1 to 3 days.
Features:
- Suitable and economical for use in areas where temporary floodwater and mosquito larvae and pupae are present and fish and other desirable aquatic organisms are not
- BVA 2 provides rapid larvae and pupae mortality
- Clear/colorless to pale yellow coloring so it does not leave a dark oily film
- Practically odorless
- Does not depend on life-cycle time for effectiveness
Mode of Action:
When applied correctly, BVA 2 produces a film of oil on top of the water surface that inhibits the mosquito larvae from obtaining oxygen (breathing) resulting in their rapid suffocation.
