\u201cIn 35 years of pest management I\u2019ve never seen a dust do what this does,\u201d said Mr Neil Raw,<\/strong> owner of Innovative Pest Control SA, Adelaide. \u201cI was gobsmacked!<\/p>\n

\u201cThe team at Sundew Solutions<\/a> asked me to take StarrdustPRO<\/a> to the worst, most difficult commercial situation I had on my books and put the product through its paces. Don\u2019t take this to a \u2018soft\u2019 test site I was told.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe moment I applied StarrdustPRO there was an immediate response. German roaches came\u00a0flooding from within the commercial appliances I had applied the product to.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe shear flushing action of the product was astounding. My client told me that the following day roaches were still coming out and dying. The client named it \u2018magic dust\u2019.<\/p>\n

StarrdustPRO Insecticidal Dusting Powder Industrial Strength is the latest product\u00a0from Sundew Solutions, a family\u00a0enterprise, 100% Australia owned and operated. It is the world\u2019s only dual active dust incorporating an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) triflumuron with a double strength permethrin 40:60 cis to provide\u00a0up to 12 months control of pest insects. StarrdustPRO is revolutionary because it combines a powerful knockdown adulticide as was well as a long lasting IGR larvicide.<\/p>\n

StarrdustPRO is made in Australia using pharmaceutical grade talc for superior dispersion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I applied StarrdustPRO for the first time I knew it\u00a0was something special,\u201d said Mr Raw. \u201cI\u2019m a very keen duster and I\u2019ve used a lot of dust in my time. StarrdustPRO came out of my hand puffer in a beautiful fine mist that hung in the air for a long time. Unlike other dusts I\u2019ve used which just drop out of my puffer like concrete, this is the best I\u2019ve seen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe weren\u2019t content to just launch the best dust on the Australian market without taking things up a notch,\u201d said David Priddy,<\/strong> owner of Sundew Solutions. \u201cWe listened to pest managers across Australia and decided to expand the label claims to also include millipedes, slaters and clothes moths making this the most comprehensive dust offering on the market. We are presently looking into a host of other pests to broaden our label even further.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe addition of triflumuron IGR \u2013 a chitin synthesis inhibitor\u2013really gives this product\u00a0\u2018punch\u2019 when up against cockroaches, fleas and silverfish,\u201d explained Mr Priddy.<\/p>\n

\u201cPesties doing tough commercial jobs will find the triflumuron lasts a long time, easily taking out pests when other products have fallen over.\u201d<\/p>\n

The addition of triflumuron to the double strength permethrin has the advantage of being excellent in situations where resistant populations of cockroaches are encountered.<\/p>\n

\u201cStarrdustPRO uses as its second dual active a double strength permethrin 40:60 cis. The\u00a0higher ratio 40:60 cis has a higher potency flushing and kill effect compared to 25:75 found in\u00a0most dusts. This gives quicker results making for very happy customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of the higher concentration in StarrdustPRO, only half the amount of product is required to do the job of the older permethrin dust products on the market.<\/p>\n

\u201cStarrdustPRO has been in development for many years and we\u2019re really proud of it. We believe it\u2019s one of the biggest game changers in pest control in many years. Unfortunately most of the dust products presently on offer are exactly the same formulation with no resistance breaking mechanism. StarrdustPRO is about to change all of that,\u201d concluded Mr Priddy.<\/p>\n

StarrdustPRO is available now, and comes in a handy 10kg square bucket with easy access flip-top lid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
