    Simple Insect Control

    Tekko Pro Insect Growth Regulator is ideal for insect control both inside and outside homes, hospitality spaces, and commercial buildings. You can use this product on everything from furniture and carpets to poultry housing and kennels. While Tekko Pro IGR doesn’t kill insects outright, it offers more precise control that prevents the pest population from rebounding over time. Because pests can’t fully mature, they’re more easily killed by environmental hazards, and they don’t reproduce at all.

    Combination Insect Control

    Since Tekko Pro IGR doesn’t kill insects outright, many people combine it with an adult insecticide to get the benefits of both. The insecticide will kill any adult pests, while the Tekko spray prevents juveniles and hatching pests from developing further and reproducing. Please follow all the instructions on the label to ensure you get the best results from these products.
