PRELUDE

Insecticide, Termiticide

PRELUDE® termiticide/insecticide with permethrin is an effective termiticide that may also be used to control ants, cockroaches, ticks and flies. It is labeled for perimeter, indoor, lawn and ornamental applications.

Applications

  • For the most effective use of this product, it is necessary that the service technician be familiar with current control practices including trenching, rodding, subslab injection, and low-pressure spray applications
  • For effective control of termites and other labeled insects or arthropod pests

Features

  • Active Ingredient: permethrin 25.6%
  • IRAC Group 3-A Insecticide
  • Mode of action: Sodium channel modulator. Pyrethroids act on sodium channels of the nerve axon membrane. They affect the sodium channel by prolonging sodium ion influx. The excess sodium causes an electrical imbalance and results in the excessive and repetitive firing of the neurons, which disrupts normal nerve impulse transmission and leads to paralysis and ultimately the death of the insect

REGISTRATION NO. 26509
PEST CONTROL PRODUCTS ACT

Prelude 240 Synthetic Pyrethroid insecticide contains permethrin, which is a synthetic pyrethroid. It controls a broad
spectrum of pests that are listed in the accompanying sections of this label. Permethrin provides rapid knockdown of
listed insect pests. Although the synthetic process has increased the stability of permethrin giving it residual properties,
it is still degraded by the ultraviolet rays of the sun. This results in a relatively short residual life in the presence of
sunlight; however, when protected from the sun, permethrin contained in Prelude 240 Synthetic Pyrethroid insecticide
will provide residual activity against listed insects. Within the specified use location, to enhance effectiveness of this
product, apply this product directly to the listed pest where possible.
