Maggots Larvicide is a Professional Use only product
Maggots contains a highly effective and specific growth regulator
called Cyromazine. It is easy to use and is a water soluble granular
larvicide which can be directly sprinkled on slurry or sprayed after
dilution in water. This treatment stops larvae developing which
ultimately breaks the fly cycle so flies will be eliminated. The Maggots
larvicide offers a long residual effect and is safe to use around
livestock.
Fly larvae feed in the top four inches (100mm) of muck and it is
important that the product is applied in four inch (100mm) layers.
Cyromazine attacks the larvae of flies and prevents them from
completing their life cycle into adulthood. The prevention of the
larvae’s growth and development stops the larvae from moulting
their skins. The new Maggots larvicide containing Cyromazine is
specifically developed for controlling fly larvae. It is the only effective
way of stopping fly problems and the results can be seen on the adult
fly population in approximately two weeks after the first application of
Maggots.
Maggots targets 80% of a fly’s life cycle. This ensures that the
problem is tackled at source as prevention is better than a cure.
With up to 7,000 maggots in 1kg of muck fly problems can occur
very quickly. Flies are responsible for a number of diseases in your
livestock or poultry house including Salmonella and Brachyspira
which can dramatically reduce production levels or in the worst cases
shut down your farm. Maggots will help to reduce liquefaction of
manure, leading to easier removal of muck which will ultimately save
time and money and produce better manure quality. The product
is proven to reduce ammonia and help to reduce odour (therefore
reduces ventilation costs). A decrease in fly population is proven to
increase productivity in animal housing.
