AGITA 1GB is a granular scatterbait, put out wherever flies congregate.
AGITA 1GB's lower concentration formulation makes it suitable for use in smaller operations, primarily:
AGITA 1GB contains thiamentoxam. It belongs to the neo-nicotinoid class of chemicals, which interfere with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at the postsynaptic membrane.
AGITA 1GB also contains tricosene, a fly pheremone that attracts flies and signals them to congregate.
This mode of action is different from that of organophospates, carbamates and pyrethroids, or, it is thought, from even the first generation neo-nicotinoids. This makes it well-suited to controlling flies that have become resistant to other products.
AGITA 1GB is ideal for use as part of an integrated fly control program, alongside a larvicidal product.

In the above study, hardboard panels (100cm2) were painted with AGITA 10WG. They were stored under natural conditions in different farms (pig, cattle, poultry), and in the laboratory as reference for 6 months. At the indicated time points, samples were collected and efficacy tested. 1m3 tests were performed in the lab with 300 flies each. Mortality was counted after 24h.
Duration of activity
AGITA remains active against adult flies for a full six months.
Targeted and easy application
AGITA need only be used where flies are seen. Its scatterbait formulation is easy to use.
Dust Free
AGITA's scatterbait formulation creates no dust.
