CYPER TC Insecticide is a professional-grade liquid insecticide containing 25.40% Cypermethrin. It is primarily designed for the control of subterranean termites, including Eastern, Western, and Formosan species. The product is used to establish both horizontal and vertical chemical barriers in the soil to prevent termite infestation in structures. It can be applied during preconstruction (before the slab is poured) or postconstruction (via trenching, rodding, or subslab injection). For preconstruction, it is applied to the soil around foundations, footings, and crawl spaces. For postconstruction, it can be used in trenches, through foundation walls, or via injection into voids. This product is highly toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates; avoid application near water bodies or storm drains. When handling, technicians must wear chemical-resistant aprons or long-sleeved coveralls, socks, chemical-resistant footwear, and chemical-resistant gloves made of barrier laminate or viton. Always ensure that any leaks or spills are cleaned up before leaving the site to prevent unintended deposition of the pesticide.
