The Louisville, Kentucky-based pest control company has multiple branches and franchises throughout the United States that offer one-time and ongoing pest management services tailored to meet individual customer needs. The company is committed to environmental preservation, minimizing the use of damaging chemicals. Its innovative termite baiting system uses a targeted approach to eradicate entire termite colonies while preventing future infestations.
The patented Diamond Pest Control insecticide is a third-generation chitin inhibitor that interrupts the insects’ developmental processes by attacking their exoskeletons. This prevents juvenile tarnished plant bugs, clouded plant bugs, armyworms, loopers and saltmarsh caterpillars from developing into adulthood. The product is safe to most beneficial insect species and works in synergy with integrated pest management programs. In trials, Diamond significantly reduced tarnished plant bug populations when it was used early in the season to control the insects before reaching the wing-maturation stage.
It is also an effective tool for cotton growers to help manage stinkbug and plant bug populations. Studies conducted by Mid-South universities showed that a treatment of nine to 12 ounces of Diamond in the third week of squaring or the first week of bloom controlled nymphs of both stinkbug and plant bug populations. When it was tank-mixed with a knockdown insecticide such as Lygus or Silencer, the combination significantly enhanced control of both pests.
Diamond is a non-repellent insecticide that does not require a refuge, making it compatible with Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. It is rainfast in four hours and has a worker re-entry interval of 12 hours. It is highly effective in a variety of growing conditions and can be applied with most conventional applicators, including air and ground booms.
