Vector control
From formulation screening and resistance monitoring to indoor and outdoor mosquito studies.
Biocides Non-Crop Pest Control
We offer efficacy testing for Non Ag Pest Control/Biocidal product development. Our team of expert scientists have decades of experience working in partnership with customers to generate efficacy data to develop, register, and market Non Ag pest control/Biocidal products, globally. By rearing our own pest colonies in-house, we ensure high quality and timely studies
Expert Efficacy Studies
With more than 20 years of experience, we support developers of pest control solutions and products intended for public health control, professional pest management, and home and garden use. By providing development and registration testing services, we accelerate innovation, help resolve manufacturing concerns and support compliance with evolving regulations. Our highly trained researchers have significant experience and expertise in managing in-house field and laboratory studies conducted against a wide range of urban and public health pests. By rearing our own pest colonies in-house, we ensure high quality and timely studies.
Mosquito control is a global public health concern. The only methods to reduce the transmission of mosquito-borne diseases are to control vector species and to protect ourselves against mosquito bites.
With more than 20 years of experience in vector control product development, our highly qualified scientists manage in-house field and laboratory GLP studies conducted against a wide range of mosquito species.
Our teams conduct vector control studies at our GLP facilities and we also partner with local CROs or government funded research institutes to provide global study directorship for countries without OECD GLP, as well as standard protocols and procedures to facilitate a consistent approach at all testing sites.
Our vector control testing capabilities include:
- Laboratory phase 1 formulation screening
- WHO resistance monitoring
- Indoor residual sprays
- Indoor space sprays
- Outdoor ground or aerial ULV sprays
- Indoor or outdoor spatial repellency
Insecticides, acaricides and other arthropods
Laboratory, simulated-use and field trials to satisfy BPR PT18 and PT19 as well as EPA regulatory requirements.
In compliance with Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and Good Experimental practices (GEP), we evaluate a wide range of formulation and application types to support product development to control:
- Urban pests (cockroaches, silverfish, wasps, dust mites, flies, spiders, ants)
- Public health and vector insects (ticks, bed bugs, biting flies and mosquitoes, head lice)
- Animal health (fleas, poultry mites, stable flies)
- Stored product beetles and moths, fruit flies and scuttle flies
- Wood boring insects/termites
Our testing capabilities include:
- Laboratory and field efficacy studies
- Laboratory formulation screening with direct spray and/or residual efficacy bioassay
- Semi-field residual efficacy
- Testing for baits, attractants, repellents and monitors, pest control devices and insect traps
- Field efficacy testing against outdoor flying and crawling insects
- Packaging Penetration Study
Our expert teams are available to discuss your data requirements for registration, R&D, screening and marketing. We tailor our study design and protocol to suit your testing needs.
