BL Larvaecide

A pesticide called a larvicide is made specifically to target and eradicate insect larvae. It is used to manage and lower insect larvae populations, especially those that are dangerous to the general public’s health or agricultural interests. Larvicides are used in mosquito control programmed to stop the growth of mosquitoes that spread illnesses like Zika virus, dengue fever, and malaria.

Larvicides can be applied to places with standing water or possible insect breeding grounds and come in a variety of formats, such as liquids, granules, or briquettes. Larvicides can contain a variety of active chemicals, but they are often designed to obstruct the growth, development, or metabolism of insect larvae, killing them or preventing them from growing into adult insects.
