How Does It Work?
- Cygnet 100 EC is a pyrethroid insecticide that acts by contact or ingestion.
- It interferes with the central nervous system of pests, causing muscle spasms and paralysis.
- Paralysis leaves the insect unable to eat or drink and ultimately leads to its death.
- Pest death may take from minutes to several hours depending on the dose received.
Precautions
Although Cygnet 100 EC is safe when used correctly, always wear personal protective equipment to avoid direct skin contact, such as gloves, and a face covering such as a mask to avoid inhalation.
