CB-80 Insecticide Aerosol, manufactured by the FMC Corporation, is a powerful insecticide that combines pyrethrins and piperonyl butoxide (PBO) to deliver rapid and effective outcomes. This versatile product can be used either as a space spray or spot treatment to eradicate both flying and crawling insects. Additionally, CB-80 is exceptionally useful for expelling insects from hard-to-reach areas such as cracks, crevices, bed frames, flooring, and cabinets. With its broad-spectrum efficacy, CB-80 is highly recommended for combating pests like cockroaches, mosquitoes, bed bugs, and many others.
Tools Required:
No tools are necessary for the application of CB-80, as it is conveniently supplied in a ready-to-use form with an applicator tip designed for reaching cracks, crevices, and wall voids.
How to Apply:
Step 1: The application method for CB-80 varies depending on the targeted insect and the specific treatment area. To determine the required amount of CB-80, calculate the cubic feet of the treatment area by multiplying the length, width, and height in feet (length x width x height = cubic feet). CB-80 can be applied at a rate of approximately 3 seconds per 1,000 cubic feet.
Step 2: For space spray application, begin by preparing the area. Close windows and doors, turn off ceiling fans, air conditioning, and heating units, remove food items, cover aquariums, and relocate pets. Shake the can thoroughly and use a sweeping motion to spray CB-80, ensuring coverage of all areas within the room.
Step 3: Dispose of dead insects and eliminate any that may have fallen, repeating the process as needed.
Recommended Usage Areas:
CB-80 is suitable for indoor application in various settings, including homes, restaurants, warehouses, hotels, hospitals, barns, and other locations specified on the label. When used indoors, it is ideal for treating cracks, crevices, and wall voids adjacent to baseboards, plumbing voids, appliances, kitchen cabinets, bathroom cabinets, windows, doors, and similar areas. Additionally, CB-80 can be effectively utilized as a space spray or spot treatment in closets, pantries, and areas where targeted insects are observed.
For outdoor application, CB-80 Insecticide Aerosol is effective on surface areas where flying and crawling pests like wasps or roaches are present.
When to Apply:
CB-80 is recommended for use when there is evidence or suspicion of indoor insect activity. It is particularly effective against flying insects such as mosquitoes, wasps, and cockroaches, as well as those that seek shelter in cracks and crevices.
