BTI Mosquito Briquets are a sustained-release larvicide that conveniently floats right on the water surface. These briquets can be used in virtually any standing water site where mosquito larvae grow. As the briquets float, BTI (or bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, a natural mosquito-killing biocontrol agent) is slowly released at the water’s surface and gradually settles in the water where it is consumed mosquito larvae. Bti kills mosquito larvae before they are able to grow into mature, biting adults, eventually controlling the mosquito population. Additionally, the toxin will continue to be released into the water for a period of 30 days or more, providing continuous kill. Each briquet will effectively treat up to 100 square feet of surface water regardless of depth.

Pesky mosquitoes love to live and breed in damp and wet areas where there is little or a lot of standing water, such as containerized ponds, flower pots, flooded basements roof gutters and old car tires. If left undisrupted in these natural habitats, mosquito populations will continue to thrive. To address this problem, Summit Chemical has created Bti Mosquito Briquets, a sustained-release larvicide that conveniently floats right on the water surface. These briquets can be used in virtually any standing water site where mosquito larvae grow. As the briquets float, Bti (or bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, a natural mosquito-killing biocontrol agent) is slowly released at the water’s surface and gradually settles in the water where it is consumed by mosquito larvae. Bti kills both the mosquito larvae before they are able to grow into mature, biting adults. Additionally, the toxin will continue to be released into the water for a period of 30 days or more, providing continuous kill. Each briquet will effectively treat up to 100 square feet of surface water regardless of depth. For smaller surfaces, use ¼ or ½ briquet as directed on the product label. Alternate wetting and drying of this product will not reduce its effectiveness, so each briquette may be used and reused. Unused briquets will remain effective indefinitely. To prevent dunks from being washed away, anchor them using a string tied through the center hole, or they can be staked in place. Mosquito Briquets contain no poisonous chemicals and are harmless to other living things. May be used as either a pre- or post-hatch treatment.

For use in:

bird baths, old automobile tires, rain barrels, abandoned or unused swimming pools (particularly above ground types), tree holes, roof gutters for collecting rainwater, flower pots, animal watering troughs, elevator shafts, basements that flood, sump pumps and any drainage areas within buildings
