About ULV
ULV is defined as the ultra low volume application rate per unit area/space which guarantees economical pest control.
The aim is to keep the application rate as low as possible and thereby diminish both the cost of the total quantity applied as well as the actual treatment time. The minute droplets (aerosols) remain suspended in the air for hours to ensure the coverage of all indoor surfaces, and that of leaves and bushes in the open air. In this manner lethal contact with the insect pests that are to be controlled is maintained for prolonged periods.

The above tests have been carried out using water due to the fact that the use of water as a diluent can significantly reduce treatment costs and are more environmentally acceptable.
