Vector Flex 20-20 ULV Insecticide 2.5 Gallon- Compare to Aqua Kontrol 20-20
Vector Flex 20:20 is manufactured by Control Solutions and is a permethrin-based insecticide that is specifically designed to control mosquitoes, midges and flies. The 20:20 stands for the active ingredient amounts contained in the product—20% permethrin and 20% piperonyl butoxide (PBO). Vector can easily be applied with hose sprayers, compressed air sprayers, ULV machines, or automatic mosquito misting systems. Use outdoors to ward off pesky mosquitoes from the area.
Tools needed
To treat large areas with Vector-Flex 20:20, a backpack sprayer, a hose end sprayer, or a spray rig is recommended. To apply to smaller areas or as a crack and crevice treatment, a pump sprayer is needed.
How to Use
- Step 1: Measure the square footage you will be treating.
- Step 2: Determine your targeted pest to help you decide how you will apply the product, how much you need to apply and where you need to apply it.
- Step 3. Measure out the amount of Vector-Flex 20:20 you will need and put it in a pump sprayer, ULV machine, misting machine, compressed air sprayer or hose end sprayer.
- Step 4: After the product has been applied, keep people and pets out of the treated area(s) until dry.
Where to Use
Vector-Flex 20:20 is meant only for outdoor use. It can be sprayed around the perimeter on the lawn, bushes and in flower beds, as a broadcast spray, or be used for spot and crack and crevice treatments.
When to Use
Use Vector-Flex 20:20 when you are encountering an influx of mosquito and midge activity outdoors. The product works best when you apply at prime mosquito times such as in the evening as the sun is setting.
