- VectoBac WDG is a biological insecticide designed for mosquito larvae control. It comes as water-dispersible granules (WDG) and is highly effective in stagnant water and marshes. It is based on Bacillus thuringiensis strain AM 65-52, which produces protein crystals that act directly on the gut cells of the larvae and kill them within 24 hours of treatment, making it a safe, environmentally friendly choice.
