Alpine WSG (water-soluble granule) is a non-pyrethroid, non-repellent broad-spectrum insecticide that uses the active ingredient Dinotefuran. Dinotefuran has been granted Reduced Risk status for public health use by the EPA. Alpine WSG can be used in attics and eaves; on exterior hard surfaces like sidewalks, driveways, patios and porches; on full exterior sides of buildings; indoors as a broadcast interior treatment on carpets, rugs, floors, upholstered furniture, pet beds and resting areas; and off structure as a broadcast application for fleas and ants.
Alpine WSG is effective against a wide range of common insects such as brown marmorated stink bugs, kudzu bugs, ants, fleas, bed bugs, house flies, and cockroaches (including American, German and Turkestan). Alpine WSG has residual activity of 30 to 60 days for most applications.
Alpine WSG requires no rinsing. The finished solution of Alpine WSG is odorless, non-staining, and does not settle once mixed. Alpine WSG does not clog spraying equipment because it dissolves completely in water.

Wow!

So, been in the pest control industry for 8 years. Ants have really become an issue. When I started years ago, we used Suspend Sc for interior, and Dragnet SFR on exterior for ants. FYI not a good idea using repellents on ants. Switched to a interior phantom/ exterior termidor. It works great, but you are limited to two applications of .06 concentration, or four .03 a year. Had to find something that I could use more often on customers homes who had moisture issues/ conducive conditions. Then I found Alpine WSG. This is the first non repellent that I could use inside and outside, and re apply with minimal restrictions. It truly eliminates ants when used per label. Thank you BASF, for creating something so effective.

Kills German Cockroaches dead
By Mark on 08/02/2019
I used on a fully infested house last week (thousands in one room- ugh) and it knocked them dead in about 5-15 seconds on direct application . There were more entrenched survivors days later - I used a variety of things (new tenants moving in 10 days later) including Suspend - which didnt kill on direct application and Talstar outside which also didn't kill when sprayed directly on the insects. Alpine was the one I felt had the best short and long term results. I found a huge nest in the range and they were all dead by then, though not certain if it was the alpine or the foggers used later (4 times) that got them. Infested 4 year old range went to landfil - it could not be deodorized effectively - no regrets and good riddance. Another nest in Fridge they loved the defrost pan (water supply) entire fridge disassembled and steam cleaned. Lesson learned, Germans roaches will eventually destroy a house because the dead roaches must be removed to remove the odor and they are not always accessible. I was lucky mine were in accessible places.

Alpine WSG

Highly recommended
By Jay on 08/21/2015
Alpine WSG was easiest to use of the several different insecticides we have tried. It dissolved quickly and completely, tank mixed great with other needed chemicals, and is very effective on the bugs we were targeting. We have used it with much success on fleas, mosquitos, and deer flies on different occasions.

Verdict's not in Yet Still Testing
By Stephanie on 03/27/2015

I used the Alpine WSG alongside the Martins IGR (one gallon) for stubborn flea population in my apartment I inherited (I don't have a pet). Since the flea infestation is so severe, I will need another treatment to be sure the combo worked. However it does look VERY promising as the FLEA BITING HAS STOPPED after just one application. Imagine if I had two gallons instead of the one.

Yes, you can use Alpine WSG in a home with children as long as children are out of the treatment area until the application is dry. Alpine WSG (water soluble granule) is a non-pyrethroid, non-repellent broad spectrum insecticide that uses the active ingredient Dinotefuran. Dinotefuran has been granted Reduced Risk status for public health use by the EPA. Alpine WSG can be used in attics and eaves; on exterior hard surfaces like sidewalks, driveways, patios and porches; on full exterior sides of buildings; indoors as a broadcast interior treatment on carpets, rugs, floors, upholstered furniture, pet beds and resting areas; and off structure as a broadcast application for fleas and ants.

How does Alpine WSG and it's active ingredient compare to Premise/Dominion 2L and imidacloprid for ant control? Will one work better to eliminating a colony of ants with a single treatment?
The active ingredient Dinofeturan in Alpine WSG and Imidaclopirid in Dominion 2L will give you the same results. Both active ingredients are non repellents and effect the nervous system resulting in death. Dinofeturan products are mostly EPA Reduced Risk and are more versatile meaning you can you them indoors and outdoors. Imidacloprid is strictly to be used outside the home.
Without knowing the specific type of ant you are treating for and if you're treating inside or outside the home, it is difficult to recommend one over the other. When treating for any species of ants, multiple treatments are usually required. Using a granule as a broadcast over the yard and liquid treatment against the structure will help not having to do monthly treatments. All this depends on the type of ant you are treating.
For example: Termidor SC is labeled for Carpenter Ants, Crazy Ants, Argentine Ants and other ant species including crazy rasberry ants and when applied as a perimeter treatment 1ft up and 1ft out from the structure can last 6 months. Talstar XTRA Granules is labeled for Ants (expect Pharoh Ants), including Carpenter Ants, & Imported Fire Ants. When applied as a broadcast over the entire lawn will last 2-4 months.

Because Alpine WSG uses the same active ingredient as some of the best plant insecticides (e.g., Safari), is seems logical that it should be usable in this application. The soluble powder in the sachets appear to be an economical and convenient way for a master gardener/homeowner to get the benefits of using this chemical without having the expense of purchasing a large amount of Safari in liquid form.
