Zapi Mosquito Larvicide Tablets 20x2g - Code 620004
The Zapi Mosquito 2g fast-release larvicidal tablets (product code 620004, registered brand Proxilar Compresse) is an advanced biocidal solution engineered for the targeted suppression and biological interruption of mosquito larvae within their natural breeding habitats. Formulated as fast-dissolving effervescent tablets intended for direct application into standing stagnant water, it effectively halts larval metamorphosis, preventing the emergence of biting adult mosquitoes. It is lethal against all common pest species, specifically targeting the common house mosquito (Culex pipiens) and the aggressive Asian tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus), delivering consistent residual control for 3 to 4 weeks per dose. The pack of 20 individual 2-gram tablets provides an easy, reliable treatment solution for storm drains, street gullies, plant saucers, septic sumps, and rural retention ponds across urban and agricultural zones.
Key Features and Construction Advantages
- Immediate-Release Larvicidal Action: The tablet effervesces and dissolves rapidly upon water contact, distributing the active growth regulator across the entire water column.
- Extended 3 to 4 Weeks Protection: A single tablet provides ongoing biological suppression of developing larvae for 21 to 28 consecutive days.
- High Efficacy in Organically Polluted Water: Formulated to maintain full biochemical activity even in dirty, turbid water containing mud, decaying leaves, and organic debris.
- Comprehensive Mosquito Spectrum: Controls both tiger mosquitoes and common mosquitoes, arresting population growth across residential and public environments.
- Authorized Biocidal Product: Formulated to European PT18 standards, certified for consumer and professional application without requiring specialized pesticide licenses.

Operating Guidelines and Workshop Notes: Drop the larvicide tablet directly into standing water without crushing or dissolving it beforehand. In street drains, manholes, or collection sumps with heavy mud and organic loads, adhere strictly to the ratio of 1 tablet per 40 liters of water volume. Repeat treatments regularly every 3 to 4 weeks throughout the breeding season from May to November, replenishing the dose after severe rainstorms that may cause heavy water turnover. Do not apply the product to flowing rivers, natural streams, or containers holding water intended for human drinking. Store tablets in their tightly sealed original container in a dry, cool area shielded from direct sunlight, out of reach of children and domestic animals.
