Surefire Spectrum 200SC Systemic Insecticide & Termiticide, 200 g/L Imidacloprid – Broad-Spectrum Protection

SureFire Spectrum 200SC: Systemic Insecticide & Termiticide with 200g/L Imidacloprid

SureFire Spectrum 200SC is a professional-strength systemic insecticide and termiticide containing 200 g/L imidacloprid in a water-based suspension concentrate. It's made by PCT International and used across ornamentals, roses, fruit trees, vegetables, turf, cotton and around buildings, working both as a broad-spectrum insecticide and a registered termite treatment.

As a systemic, imidacloprid is absorbed through the foliage and moves through the plant's tissues, so it controls sucking pests from the inside out and provides long residual protection. That systemic action, plus extended residual life in the soil, means a single application can give season-long control of many pests.

Insect Pest Control

Spectrum 200SC controls a broad range of sap-sucking pests, including aphids, azalea lace bugs, silverleaf whitefly, thrips, longtailed mealybug, hibiscus flower beetle, harlequin bug, bronze orange bug, Fuller's rose weevil, psyllids and soft scale on ornamentals, roses and various fruit trees and vegetables, as well as mirids and brown flea beetle on cotton.

Termite Control

Spectrum 200SC is registered to control all species of subterranean termites, including Mastotermes darwiniensis, in both new and existing buildings, and is registered for up to 5 years of protection. It's non-repellent, so it binds to the soil and stays undetectable to termites. Rather than avoiding the treated zone, termites move through it and pick up the chemical, which helps drive colony control and elimination. It applies with standard termite treatment equipment, and offers strong value against comparable liquid and non-repellent termiticides.

How to Use

Spectrum 200SC can be applied as a foliar spray, soil drench or stem injection, depending on the pest and situation. For soil drenches, clear mulch and dead vegetation, moisten the soil first, apply the mixture, then water in well. For termite work, follow the label's soil barrier and application rates precisely, since an incomplete or breached treated zone can allow concealed termite entry. Always mix and apply at the label rate for your target pest.

Safety

Spectrum 200SC is dangerous to bees. Do not spray any plants in flower while bees are foraging. Keep it out of reach of children and pets, wear protective clothing and gloves, and do not contaminate streams, rivers, waterways or drains. Observe any pre-harvest intervals on edible crops, and always read and follow the full label directions and safety instructions before use.
