Archer IGR Insect Growth Regulator pint (16 oz)

Archer IGR is a professional-grade insect growth regulator (IGR) designed to break the reproductive cycle of nuisance and structural pests. Powered by pyriproxyfen, Archer prevents immature insects from developing into reproductive adults, making it an excellent long-term population management tool for fleas, cockroaches, mosquitoes, ants, flies, ticks, and other listed pests. Archer is photostable for up to 14 days outdoors, making it highly effective for exterior treatments in direct sunlight. Unlike traditional insecticides that only kill adult insects, Archer works as a form of insect “birth control” by disrupting juvenile development and reproduction. It is commonly tank mixed with adulticides such as Talstar, Demand CS, Demon, Tandem, or Arilon to provide both immediate knockdown and long-term control. Features & Benefits

What Is an IGR? An IGR (Insect Growth Regulator) interferes with the natural development of insects. Archer mimics juvenile insect hormones, preventing immature insects from developing into breeding adults. In some insects, Archer also affects adult reproductive systems, reducing egg production and fertility. This makes Archer especially effective for long-term pest prevention and population suppression when paired with a traditional insecticide. Where to Use Archer IGR Archer is labeled for use in a wide variety of indoor and outdoor environments including:

• Homes and apartments

• Demand CS
• Demon WP
• Tandem
• Arilon

The IGR controls immature life stages while the insecticide kills adult insects for complete population management. Indoor Flea & Tick Treatments Before treatment:

• Vacuum carpets, furniture, pet bedding, and draperies thoroughly
• Dispose of vacuum bags outdoors
• Treat carpets, rugs, furniture, pet sleeping areas, and cracks/crevices

Pets should be treated separately with an approved on-animal flea product. Archer should never be applied directly to pets. Kennels & Doghouses For flea prevention in kennels and doghouses:

• Remove pets and food/water bowls before treatment
• Apply 1 gallon of diluted solution per 1,500 sq ft
• Treat walls, bedding areas, floors, and run areas
• Allow treated surfaces to dry completely before animals return
