How Eco PCO ACU Aerosol Works

EcoPCO ACU Aerosol is a pressurized ready-to-use insecticide designed to replace conventional pyrethrum or synthetic contact sprays. The active ingredient Phenethyl Propionate is a derivative of peanut oil (it does not contain the enzyme that triggers peanut allergies). It acts as an octopamine blocker for target pests, disrupting the neurotransmitter function in target insects and causing a breakdown in the insects’ central nervous system. EcoPCO ACU targets receptors not found in humans and non-target animals, making it a safe and effective product.

EcoPCO ACU Aerosol is a contact kill only, meaning it will only be effective for insects contacted directly with the spray. Once the application has dried, there are no residual effects.

Target Uses

Use EcoPCO ACU Aerosol in place of conventional pyrethrins or synthetic pyrethroid pressurized insecticides as a contact kill indoors for listed pests. EcoPCO ACU is all natural, making it ideal for sensitive environments where residual or conventional sprays are prohibited or undesirable. EcoPCO ACU Aerosol is effective as a contact and crack and crevice treatment for many common crawling insects including roaches, spiders, ants, pantry pests, and bed bugs. The aerosol particulates are fine enough to treat flying insects, and the included crack and crevice straw makes treating small spaces easy.

ACTIVE INGREDIENT: 2-Phenethyl Propionate 0.10%

Application Instructions

***Always read the product label completely before use***

Shake well before using. This product is a contact spray and will not prevent reinfestation of any listed pest in any treated area. Insects must be contacted by spray in order to ensure 100% mortality.

Crawling Insects, Crack and Crevice Treatment:

Use the injector nozzle tip provided. For listed pests, inject into all crack/crevice and void spaces where insects are present. Applications can be made, but are not limited to, behind baseboards, cabinets, walls, ceilings, around doors and window frames, behind and under refrigerators, cabinets, sinks and stoves, and around water pipes and appliances. Insects contacted by spray will be killed. Ensure contact with as many insects as possible. Do not apply to any surface where food is prepared or served.

Yield will vary according to use with this ready-to-use product. Each 17 oz. can should yield several repeat treatments.

Standard Application Rates

*Exact rates are not specified for this natural, ready-to-use pesticide. Apply to areas as directed for target pests until moist. Insects contacted by spray will die.

For use in the following areas:

Residential, Commercial, and Industrial buildings with the following exceptions: Do not use in commercial food/feed handling establishments, restaurants, or other places where food/feed is commercially prepared, processed or stored. Do not use on food preparation surfaces. Avoid spraying plants. Do not apply to water.

Indoors-

Fleas and Brown Dog Ticks: Hold can approximately 12 inches (30 centimeters) above surface area and apply uniformly to infested areas such as carpets, rugs, cloth upholstery and pet bedding. Contact fleas & ticks directly to kill these pests.

Pantry Pest Treatments: Use EcoPCO ACU to kill pantry pests (including beetles, moths, mites and weevils). Non-food use only. Limit treatments to residential food storage areas. Do not use on food preparation surfaces. Apply only as a crack/crevice treatment or as a spray to the cracks, corners and surfaces of pantry shelves. Remove all foodstuffs, utensils and shelf paper from area to be treated. Discard used shelf paper. Apply spray to shelves and in cracks and crevices behind and under cupboards and cabinets. Allow treated surfaces to dry and cover shelves with clean paper before replacing any utensils, foodstuffs or other items. Any foodstuff accidentally contaminated with treatment solution should be destroyed.

For Flying Insect Treatments: To kill (these pests) (house flies and southern house mosquitoes), aim spray toward flying insect infestations contacting as many insects as possible. Insects contacted by spray will be killed. Wipe away excess spray after application. Avoid spraying plants.

For Bedbug Treatments: Remove bedding materials. Take bed apart and treat cracks, joints and interior of framework. Treat mattresses and box springs; especially around tufts, folds, seams and edges. Treat baseboards, moldings, floors, and all cracks and crevices in the room. Let spray dry before putting bedding materials back on. Repeat treatment as necessary. Not recommended as the sole treatment for bed bugs.
