Eco Options Review

We have recently received welcome news that Scott’s EcoSense™ Weed B Gon® Weed Control Selective Herbicide has been reviewed by third-party agency Scientific Certification Systems and they have recommended it for Home Depot’s Eco Options program in Canada, which recognizes products that offer “a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve the same purpose”. Weed B Gon® is sold in Canada by Scott’s EcoSense™ under a license from Neudorff and is otherwise known as Fiesta® when used by your local lawn care operator. It is made with iron in the form of FeHEDTA as the active ingredient and provides selective, broadleaf weed control in lawns and turf. Weed B Gon®/Fiesta® are sold as Gardens Alive Iron-X Weed Killer in the United States.

The specifics of the Eco Options program are defined by the Environmentally Preferable Purchasing (EPP) program of the United States Environmental Protection Agency. The review criteria are extensive, including material extraction and processing, manufacturing, packaging, product use, disposal, and transportation.

Neudorff USA launches Antixx Liquid Ant Bait

It’s with great pleasure that Neudorff USA announces the launch of Antixx Liquid Ant Bait for ants and other common pests.

Antixx LAB is a research-driven, highly palatable ant bait that introduces a new active ingredient to the pest control market, spinosad. Spinosad is a metabolite of the soil-dwelling bacteria Saccharopolyspora Spinosa and is highly active on insects by ingestion as well as contact.

Spinosad works quickly and kills the queen and colony within 1-2 weeks. Antixx LAB offers pest management professionals a new way of controlling troublesome ants, as well as other common pests while managing resistance to existing products. This coupled with the reduced risk of spinosad makes these products integral tools to control nuisance pests as part of a comprehensive pest management program.

Neudorff launches Scorpio Liquid Ant Bait in Canada

October 2017. It is with great pleasure that Neudorff announces the launch of Scorpio Liquid Ant Bait in Canada.

Scorpio is a ready-to-use highly palatable liquid ant bait that contains an active ingredient new to the structural pest control market, spinosad. Spinosad is a metabolite of the soil-dwelling bacteria Saccharopolyspora spinosa. Spinosad-based insecticides are widely used to protect food and ornamental plants including those on organic farms, but have not been used to protect structures…until now!

Spinosad can be used indoors and outdoors. It kills a wide range of ant species including carpenter ants. Scorpio works quickly and will kill the queen and colony. Expect colony control in 1-2 weeks. Scorpio, therefore, offers pest management professionals a new way of controlling troublesome ants and manage resistance to existing products. This makes Scorpio an exciting and novel new tool for pest management professionals.

The Neudorff team is very excited to enter the structural pest control market and looks forward to working with Gardex and Univar to bring Scorpio Liquid Ant Bait to the structural pest control industry. Look to Neudorff as we move to expand the range of Scorpio products for pest management professionals.
