EcoVia EC is a research-based botanical insecticide designed for broad-spectrum control of various pests. It is an emulsifiable concentrate containing Thyme Oil (20.0%), 2-Phenylethyl Propionate (14.0%), and Rosemary Oil (8.0%). This product is suitable for use in both indoor and outdoor settings, including residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural environments. It targets a wide range of pests such as crawling insects (ants, bed bugs, fleas, ticks), flying insects (mosquitoes, flies), and stinging insects. Applications include perimeter treatments, lawn applications, and use in livestock facilities like poultry layers, dairy cattle, and swine housing. For indoor structural pests, it can be used for crawling infestations, flying insect fogging, and stinging insect fogging. When using in food processing plants, ensure all food and food-contact surfaces are protected or removed. The product can be diluted with water or mineral oil USP depending on the target pest and application method. Always wear appropriate PPE, including protective eyewear and chemical-resistant gloves, especially when handling the concentrate. Note that this product is not approved for use on animals intended for food.
