Product type PT18 – Insecticides, acaricides and products to control other arthropods (Pest control) Where relevant, an exact description of the authorised use Insecticide Target organism(s) (including development stage) Scientific name: Blattella germanica Common name: German cockroach Development stage: Nymphs Scientific name: Blattella germanica Common name: German cockroach Development stage: Adults Scientific name: Supella longipalpa Common name: Brown-banded cockroach Development stage: Nymphs Scientific name: Supella longipalpa Common name: Brown-banded cockroach Development stage: Adults Scientific name: Blatta orientalis Common name: Oriental Cockroach Development stage: Nymphs Scientific name: Blatta orientalis Common name: Oriental Cockroach Development stage: Adults Scientific name: Periplaneta americana Common name: American Cockroach Development stage: Nymphs Scientific name: Periplaneta americana Common name: American Cockroach Development stage: Adults Field(s) of use Indoor In cracks and crevices, or in concealed locations inaccessible to humans or domestic animals: behind refrigerators cupboards and shelves, under kitchen appliances, in electrical control boxes, voids and ducting and under bathroom fixtures etc. Application method(s) Method: Bait application Detailed description: A ready to use (RTU) insecticidal gel bait for the control of cockroaches in public hygiene Application rate(s) and frequency Application Rate: SchwabEX-Guard should be applied as a number of spots of approximately 4 mm diameter (each spot comprising approximately 0,032 g of bait). In cases of severe infestation, where larger cockroach species are present (B. orientalis or P. americana), in areas that are particularly dirty or cluttered or where alternative sources of food cannot be entirely eliminated the higher application rate (e.g. 2 instead of 1 spot per m2 in case of a light infestation) should be used. Dilution (%): 0 Number and timing of application: — Light infestation 1 – 2 (0,032 – 0,064 g) spots per m2 — Medium infestation 3 – 6 (0,096 – 0,192 g) spots per m2 — Heavy infestation 6 – 10 (0,192 – 0,320 g) spots per m2 The maximum number of annual applications is 11.

5. GENERAL DIRECTIONS FOR USE (1)

5.1. Instructions for use

Always read the label or leaflet before use and respect/follow all the instructions provided.

Do not expose bait drops to sunlight or heat (e.g. radiator).

The pre-filled plastic reservoir containing SchwabEX-Guard is intended for use with the plunger provided or a specific bait application device common to the pest control industry. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for directions on the use of the applicator.

Inject the bait into cracks and crevices, void spaces, or in concealed locations inaccessible to humans or domestic animals where insects may live, feed and breed. Such areas are generally warm/damp and dark (behind refrigerators, cupboards and shelves, under kitchen appliances, in electrical control boxes, voids and ducting and under bathroom fixtures etc.). Inspection or trapping to confirm infestation is recommended prior to treatment. Ensure that any alternative food sources are removed and concentrate the bait placements as individual spots at cockroach activity sites. The product should only be applied to areas inaccessible to children and pets.

Do not apply SchwabEX-Guard where it will come into contact with water or in areas that are routinely cleaned. Typically cockroaches will die a few hours after a single feed on SchwabEX-Guard. In infested premises, dead cockroaches will normally be seen within 24 hours of treatment.

Remove the cap from the nozzle, touch the top to the surface to be treated, and push down on the plunger. Replace the cap on the dispenser after treatment is completed.

The bait will adhere to non-greasy or non-dusty surfaces and will remain pliable and palatable to cockroaches as long as it is visibly present.

Treated area’s should be visually inspected after 1–2 weeks. Where initial infestation was heavy a second SchwabEX-Guard application may be required if the first treatment has been consumed and live cockroaches are still present.

A second visual inspection of bait placements is recommended 2-4 weeks after the initial treatment. Reapply when bait is no longer visibly present, according to the level of infestation (light, medium or heavy). Replace bait before it is completely consumed to keep cockroaches from returning.

Inform the registration holder if the treatment is ineffective.

Spills and residues containing the product need to be removed as chemical waste.

Care should be taken to avoid depositing gel onto exposed surfaces. If gel contacts an exposed surface, remove gel with a paper towel and clean the area with disposable wet wipes.

During follow-up visits, inspect bait placements and re-apply when necessary.

Do not place bait in locations that are routinely washed, as bait will be removed by washing. Do not use this product in or on electrical equipment where a possibility of shock hazard exists. Avoid contact with textiles and clothing, as bait may stain.

5.2. Risk mitigation measures

Wear protective chemical resistant gloves during product handling phase (glove material to be specified by the authorisation holder within the product information).

Do not apply bait in area’s where repellent insecticides have been used without thoroughly cleaning the surface with disposable wet tissue. Do not apply repellent insecticides after application of the bait.

Do not apply directly on or near food, feed or drinks, or on surfaces or utensils likely to be in direct contact with food, feed, drinks and animals.

Spills and residues containing the product must be removed as chemical waste.

Avoid placing gel on fabrics or carpets since it may stain some absorbent materials. To prevent staining, exposed bait should be cleaned up immediately with disposable wet wipes.

Cleaning materials must be disposed of as solid waste.
