At Nexus Pest Solutions, we believe in a comprehensive approach to pest control that
goes beyond conventional treatments. One of the most valuable tools in our arsenal is
the use of Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs). These innovative products offer a unique
and effective way to target pests at their most vulnerable stage: their development.
How IGRs Work
IGRs disrupt the normal growth and development cycle of insects.
They work by interfering with the insect’s molting process, preventing them from reaching adulthood
and reproducing.
This targeted approach not only eliminates current infestations but
also prevents future generations from developing.
The IGR Advantage
IGRs offer several key advantages:
● Long-lasting protection: IGRs can remain effective for several months, providing
ongoing protection against new infestations.
● Reduced reliance on traditional pesticides: By targeting the insect’s life cycle,
IGRs minimize the need for broad-spectrum insecticides, reducing potential
environmental impact.
● Minimal risk for humans and pets: IGRs are designed to be friendly for humans,
pets, and the environment when used as directed.
Cockroaches and Fleas: A Perfect Match
Cockroaches and fleas are particularly susceptible to the effects of IGRs. These pests
have complex life cycles with multiple stages, making them ideal targets for IGR
technology. By disrupting their development, IGRs can effectively break the cycle of
infestation and prevent future problems.
