- Fendona 6 SC is a professional insecticide from BASF, specially designed for public health pest control programmes indoors and outdoors. It is based on the active ingredient alpha-cypermethrin at 6% in an aqueous suspension concentrate (SC) formulation that gives the active ingredient high stability on treated surfaces. It acts fast by contact and ingestion, attacking the insect's nervous system by disrupting sodium channels, which causes rapid paralysis followed by death. Its long residual effect keeps protecting after spraying, making it a professional choice for pest control companies and facilities that need consistent, reliable results in routine control programmes.
