• Formulated on the basis of a revolutionary anti-evaporation technology – FFAST.
• It does not contain a solvent and can only be used diluted with water.
• It has a spectacular knock-down effect, is biodegradable, does not smell, does not stain and does not leave traces.
• Applied residually in sensitive spaces, it provides them with immediate use, in just a few hours after application.

AquaPy EW165 An emulsion in water giving non-persistent insecticidal sprays for use in food handling premises, animal husbandry areas, public hygiene/nuisance, empty grain storage and transport and tobacco industry insect control. The product is readyto-use for application as an ultra low volume aerosol or can be diluted with water for application as a mist, thermal fog or surface spray. AquaPy is an anti-evaporant (FFAST™ technology), low odour product containing synergised natural
Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium and minimal volatile organic compounds (voc’s). It provides rapid knockdown and kill and will flushout insects from their harbourages.

AquaPy EW165 is effective against a wide range of insects, including those in the following groups:
Flying insects e.g. Flies, Mosquitoes, Stored Product Moths and Tobacco Beetles.
Wasps – by treating in and around the nest.
Crawling insects: as an aid to the control of e.g. Cockroaches, Bed Bugs, Fleas, Saw-Toothed Grain Beetles, Grain Weevils, Flour Beetles, Grain Borers, Mealworm Beetles, Leather Beetles and Tobacco Beetles.

• Diptera – Flies and mosquitoes;
• Lepidoptera – Butterflies, moths;
• Coleoptera – Storage enemies;
• Hymenoptera – Ants;
• Siphonaptera – Fleas, ticks;
• Hemiptera – Bedbugs;
• Dictyoptera – Cockroaches.

Directions for Use:
SHAKE CONTAINER THOROUGHLY BEFORE DISPENSING AQUAPY.
A space and contact (surface) spray for use in the following situations:
Domestic Premises
Private Housing.
Food Handling:
Processing: Food manufacture, kitchens, slaughterhouses, bakeries, mills etc.
Storage: Food retailers, warehouses, raw material stores etc.
Preparation: Restaurants, commercial kitchens etc.
Commodity Storage:
Tobacco facilities, empty grain storage areas/silos and empty grain transport but not for direct use on grain. Accepted by the British Beer and Pub Association and Brewing Research International for use in empty grain stores intended for
storage of malting barley.
Public Buildings:
Hospitals, hotels, public baths, municipal buildings, churches, halls, community centres, cinemas, offices etc.
Farm Buildings, Animal Husbandry Areas:
In and around poultry houses, cattle sheds, milking parlours, piggeries etc.

Refuse tips, transit stations, indoors and outdoors at sewage works (excluding filter beds and open water tanks), amenity areas etc. AquaPy has case specific approvals from AfOR (Association for Organics Recycling) for use in composting
systems – contact AfOR via www.organics-recycling.org.uk to request approval before use.
Continuously occupied areas:
In continuously occupied areas such as hospital wards, residential nursing homes and prisons, Aquapy may only be used as a crack and crevice or band/spot treatment. Not for use on human clothing or bedding.
Aircraft: Complies with requirements of AMS1450A and Boeing D6-7127.
For optimum performance ensure that the temperature of the product is not below 10°C during application. Depending upon the manner of use, AquaPy may be diluted with water. Prepare a fresh solution as required.
The diluted material should not be stored.

As a Space Spray
Do not spray directly on the packaging of the goods or dampen the packaging as possibility of penetration due to permeable packaging.
Indoors:
Close doors and windows and shut off ventilation systems before spraying and for at least 30 minutes after treatment. Distribute spray evenly throughout the area. Treatments should be timed to coincide with the time of maximum flight
activity for the target insect. For Tobacco Beetles this will typically be in the late afternoon and evening.
Direct the spray into identified insect harbourages. Spray as frequently as the situation demands. Treatment at weekly intervals is recommended. More frequent applications may be necessary for heavy infestations.
Outdoors:
In general the dose rate for large areas should be acceptable (see table), but if only small areas are being treated the dose rate may have to be increased. The best conditions for outdoor spraying occur in the early morning or late afternoon
and evening when conditions are most likely to be still.

As a Surface Spray
As a direct contact spray apply at a rate sufficient to dampen the insects present on the fabric of warehouses, granaries, mills, bakeries and similar situations.
This product should not be applied directly or indirectly in areas with exposed or unwrapped food.
Do not spray directly on the packaging of the goods or dampen the packaging as possibility of penetration due to permeable packaging.
Special attention should be paid to cracks and crevices and other insect harbourages. Spray as frequently as the situation demands. Length of control will depend on the rate used (see table) and the environmental conditions (surface type,
cleanliness, moisture, temperature, etc).

Solid Waste Management
In solid waste management programmes the use of AquaPy should be integrated with good management practices e.g. regular infilling and compaction of refuse to a depth of at least 225 mm. New tip surfaces should be sprayed as they are
created. Treatments should be repeated as necessary.

For Wasp Nests:
Apply liberally and directly to the nest or to entrance holes of concealed nests until the nest is saturated. Treatments should only be carried out at dusk or other times when wasp activity around the nest is minimal.

Resistance Management:
Space sprays containing Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium must not be used more than once a week against house flies in intensive or controlled environment animal houses as they could cause control failure due to resistance. If more
frequent treatments are required use a product with a different active ingredient and if necessary a different method of control (e.g. Quickbayt – see labels for details).
