Applications and reviews of Cifox for cockroaches

Main advantages

The main thing that distinguishes the drug from similar products is its ability to destroy various synanthropic organisms. Tsifoks effectively fights flies, cockroaches, ants, bedbugs, and ticks. It is often used to treat rooms that are infested with scabies mites and lice.

In addition to treating premises, Tsifoks is also used in open areas and reservoirs. This is an excellent means of combating midges in artificial and natural reservoirs. The product is professional. It is often used to treat subways, trains and other public places. It has shown itself to be excellent in the fight against ixodid ticks. Benefits also include:

  • high speed of action. The death of pests begins within half an hour after applying the drug;
  • long lasting effect. Even those parasites that were still in the eggs at the time of treatment will be immediately poisoned after hatching.
  • The product is perfect for treating residential premises, as it does not leave any marks on furniture.

Flaws

Despite the obvious advantages, Cifox also has some disadvantages:

  • before use, the product should be properly prepared by diluting it with water in the required proportions;
  • it is extremely important to follow the instructions exactly and observe the dosage;
  • special attention should be paid to precautionary measures, since Cifox has a fairly high toxicity;
  • there is a possibility of addiction. In this case, when repeated treatment, insects will not react to the drug;
  • an unpleasant specific odor that will persist for some time after treatment.

Tsifoks – Instructions for use

Tsifoks is used only in diluted form. When mixed with water, the drug acquires a milky color. Since oxygen negatively affects the diluted composition, it is not recommended to prepare it in advance. This mixture cannot be stored. This leads to a significant decrease in efficiency.

Depending on the degree of infection, different proportions are used. As a rule, this is indicated on the packaging. For example, for minor contamination, use 1 ml of the drug per 1 liter of water. If it is strong, it is recommended to double the concentration of the drug. This means for 1 liter of water you will need to use 2 ml of product.

Before use, the composition is thoroughly mixed for several minutes. Then the mixture is poured into a spray bottle for convenient and uniform application to the surface.

How to breed Tsifoks from bedbugs, mosquitoes, fleas

The drug is diluted depending on what parasites you are going to fight.:

  • to kill large bedbugs or cockroaches, you need to prepare a 0.2% solution. Here, 6 ml of the drug is used per liter of water;
  • treatment for small bugs, ticks or ants should be carried out with a 0.05 percent solution. To do this, 2 ml of the drug is diluted in 1 liter of water;
  • mosquitoes, fleas and flies will die from a 0.1 percent solution. Here, 4 ml of product is used per liter of water.

After dilution, it is recommended to let the mixture sit for a few minutes. It is recommended to apply the drug with a sprayer, which has the ability to regulate the spray intensity. In addition to a spray bottle, you can also use a regular brush. After moistening it in the solution, treat smooth surfaces.

The greatest activity of the active ingredients is observed in the first 20 minutes. During this time, more than 80 percent of pests die. The effect of the drug gradually decreases. The product disappears completely after three months. During this time, Tsifox will continue to repel pests trying to return to the premises.

After treatment, 10-12 hours must pass before the room can be used again. Here it is necessary to carry out wet cleaning, wash all treated surfaces with clean water.

Composition and properties

It is a nerve poison. The drug has a long duration of action. When using Tsifox to kill house bugs, cockroaches, and ants, the effect of the drug is 1-1.5 months. Tsifox protects against flying insects for 1-4 weeks. When treating a water surface, the effect of the insecticide is felt within 1-3 weeks.

Cifox contains 25% cypermethrin. Working solutions of this substance should contain 0.01-0.3%. The instructions for the drug contain detailed recommendations on how to dilute the emulsion when using the solution against various types of insects. The shelf life of the product is 5 years from the date of issue.

Analogs containing cypermethrin - Cypermethrin, Medilis Cyper.

The diluted drug is suitable for use within 8 hours.

The advantages of the substance are its rapid action on pests, long-lasting action and effectiveness against all types of insects. Disadvantages include the need for protective clothing and lengthy preparation before processing. Protective clothing is necessary because the concentrated toxic chemical also has a nerve-paralytic effect on people.

Fighting cockroaches


It is recommended to pay attention to the main points of combating mustachioed pests:

  1. If the insects have appeared recently, you can first treat only the places where they accumulate.
  2. In the fight against cockroaches, the frames of sofas and beds, the joints of baseboards with wallpaper, carpets and furniture walls must be thoroughly treated.
  3. In case of severe infestation, treat everything where cockroaches can live: the bottom of window sills, chairs, electrical appliances, painting surfaces.
  4. If the surface to be treated is made of a material that quickly absorbs liquid, it is recommended to increase the volume of the product used.
  5. Treatment with this product should be carried out with the windows open.

Usage

Instructions for using Tsifoks against bedbugs provide for treating the premises in accordance with the rules.

  1. Clean the house, vacuum, wash the floors.
  2. Move furniture away from the walls.
  3. Remove pets from the apartment.
  4. Cover aquariums and terrariums tightly.
  5. Cover sockets and ventilation grilles with cling film.
  6. Remove food, clothing, dishes, and bedding.

Disinsection is carried out with open windows, since the product is highly toxic with a strong unpleasant odor. Initially, bedbug nests are sprayed, then the places where the parasites hide - baseboards, the back of furniture, walls, peeled wallpaper. Finally, the floor and ceiling.

Upon completion, you can close the windows and leave the room for at least 2 hours. Upon return, ventilate well. It is recommended to do partial wet cleaning 12 hours after disinsection only in places where hands can touch. You are allowed to spend the night in the apartment every other day.

On a note!

The action of the poison is neutralized by an alkaline environment. Add baking soda to warm water. For 1 liter of liquid, 1 teaspoon of the product. Stir, pour in liquid soap.

After 14 days, it is recommended to re-treat to consolidate the result. General cleaning should be done only after a month.

Destruction of ants, scabies mites, fleas, bedbugs


The drug shows excellent results in the fight against small parasites. Along with the adults, the larvae and even the eggs die. To combat scabies mites, bedbugs, fleas and ants, it is recommended to use a 0.1 percent solution. After the diluted composition has infused for several minutes, you can begin processing:

  • use a regular brush, which is used to treat smooth floor surfaces. The product must also be applied to the wall, to a height of up to 1.5 meters from the floor;
  • to treat corners, crevices and other hard-to-reach places, it is recommended to use a large-droplet sprayer;
  • to completely get rid of pests, the room should be re-treated after two days;
  • The effect of the drug continues for another three weeks after treatment, as evidenced by a specific smell.

Effect of the drug


Tsifox for bedbugs
How Tsifox works on the body of insects, the mechanism has been well studied. Cypermethrin enters the body by contact through the spiracles. Disturbs the functioning of the nervous system. Blocks the transmission of nerve impulses, causing paralysis. After a few seconds, death occurs. The rate of death depends on the amount of poison that enters the body.

The maximum concentration on the treated surface lasts 2 hours. During this time, Tsifox kills most of the parasites. Effective on adults and nymphs of different ages. It is not able to penetrate the dense shell of the egg to the larva. But this disadvantage is compensated by the prolonged effect of the drug.

Cypermethrin is resistant to ultraviolet rays and ambient temperature. Does not lose properties for about 60 days. During this time, the larvae manage to emerge from the eggs, and in the first minutes of their life they receive a lethal portion of poison. The parasites do not have time to lay eggs again, and the population of domestic bugs dies out.

On a note!

Does Tsifox help against bedbugs - yes. But there is one small nuance. Insects are able to develop immunity to poison if a minimal amount of poison enters the body. Acts like a vaccine. The bed bug will get sick and become even stronger. This situation often arises if parasites were poisoned by neighbors with a drug based on cypermethrin and they moved en masse to a new apartment through sockets, cracks in the wall, and communication wires.

Treatment with Tsifoks against flies


Tsifoks is a universal product that can be used not only indoors, but also outdoors. This drug is actively used to combat various types of flies. So, to treat the room it is recommended to use a 0.05 percent solution. In open areas, the product concentrate should be doubled. A 0.5 percent solution is used to treat areas.

To apply the drug, choose the method that is most convenient for you: brush or spray. Apply the product evenly to the surface to be treated. Practice shows that Tsifoks destroys not only flies. The drug kills larvae and eggs, which allows for maximum effectiveness.

Mosquito control

Outdoor recreation on a warm summer evening is often spoiled by annoying mosquitoes. As a rule, attacks by these insects are accompanied by unpleasant itchy bites. Many classical drugs designed specifically to combat these blood-sucking insects turn out to be ineffective. They do not give the desired effect, so a person has to look for newer and more modern options for solving this problem. Rules for use against mosquitoes:

  • for a small number of insects, dilute 2 ml of the drug in 1 liter of water;
  • The product is suitable for treating trees and summer cottages. At the same time, bees are not afraid of the effect of the product;
  • To combat mosquitoes in a summer cottage, ponds and wetlands are thoroughly treated. Here it is recommended to increase the concentration of the drug to 4 ml per 1 liter of water;
  • Containers with standing water that is not used for irrigation or other household needs must also be treated;
  • the drug is evenly applied to the surface of water or soil using a sprayer;
  • when going hiking or fishing, you can spray your clothes with the drug;
  • Tsifox not only actively destroys mosquitoes and larvae, but also has a repellent effect for a long time;
  • Streams and flowing bodies of water should not be treated. It is prohibited to use the drug for treating bodies of water that are used for swimming.

Price

The professional product is available in different containers. Minimum volume – 50 ml. This is enough for two full treatments of the apartment. The price of Tsifox for bedbugs is affordable, but finding the drug is problematic. The cost of a small bottle is on average 200 rubles. You can order Tsifoks in the online store. Or they buy the product from SES specialists.

Reviews

Irina, Voronezh

I used Tsifox to fight cockroaches at my dacha. I was very pleased with the result. I liked the long lasting effect. The presence of the smell indicated that the product was still working, so the pests would not return. It is also worth noting that, along with cockroaches, mosquitoes and flies have disappeared. Even after I washed the room, insects do not appear in the house. For several months now, nothing has interfered with our family’s summer vacation.

Andrey, Samara

For a long time I was looking for a suitable remedy to finally get rid of cockroaches in the apartment. The drugs I used before were ineffective or only gave a partial effect. A friend who works in a special company that deals with baiting insects recommended Tsifox. She said that their company has been using this product for a long time, and it shows excellent results. I decided to try it too. I did everything according to the instructions, and the cockroaches disappeared. Quite a lot of time has passed, and there are still no insects in the apartment. I was pleased with the result.
