For many residential general pest treatments and regular services in strata, hospitality and other commercial accounts, pest managers need a quality, broad-spectrum product that delivers value for money. \u201cPest managers just need a quality product, that does the job and allows them to price the service competitively and maintain a good margin. This is where Sumiguard fits in,\u201d added Mr McClintock.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs part of the Sumitomo range of products, Sumiguard has been extensively tested with Sumilarv, which makes it a perfect partner for flea jobs and when the extra protection of an insect growth regulator is required,\u201d suggested Mr McClintock.<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 15\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>When tested on carpet in trials by the University\u00a0of Technology in Sydney, the Sumiguard\/Sumilarv combination has demonstrated 100% emergence inhibition of fleas for up to three months and the benefits of Sumilarv ensure the inhibition continues at around 90% for nine months or more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut Sumilarv is not just a flea product, with cockroaches, spiders, ants, carpet beetles, silverfish, flies and mosquitoes on the label, it is a general pest insecticide pest managers can rely on,\u201d concluded Mr McClintock.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite being a less well established pyrethroid product, Sumiguard has been proven to be 100% effective against fleas in clinical trials.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":133,"featured_media":5398,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"Despite being a less well established pyrethroid product, Sumiguard has been proven to be 100% effective against fleas in clinical trials.\u00a0","_seopress_robots_index":"yes","_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[348],"tags":[],"company":[130],"pest":[162],"pesticide":[170],"product-service":[],"class_list":["post-5169","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pest-control-products","company-sumitomo","pest-fleas","pesticide-pyrethroids","wpbf-post"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5169","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/133"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5169"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5169\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5169"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5169"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5169"},{"taxonomy":"company","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/company?post=5169"},{"taxonomy":"pest","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pest?post=5169"},{"taxonomy":"pesticide","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pesticide?post=5169"},{"taxonomy":"product-service","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product-service?post=5169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
