Scion Brings Confidence Beyond Mosquito Control

Mosquitoes cause at least 2.7 million deaths every year and are responsible for 500 million cases of vector-borne illnesses such as malaria, yellow fever and viruses including West Nile and Zika. Your mosquito treatment program should leave you feeling confident that your customers will be safe from these pests.

Confidence starts with knowing what you’re up against. There are over 170 species of mosquitoes in the U.S. with each species’ life cycle consisting of egg, larva, pupa and adult stages of up to 14 days. Egg, larval and pupal development all require the presence of water, making recognition of harborage areas an easy part of the property survey. Inspections also help identify species present, the extent of the problem and areas requiring treatment.

Once inspection is completed, the mosquito treatment plan can be initiated. Scion® Insecticide with UVX™ Technology is the ideal choice for mosquito management around homes, schools and commercial buildings. With the active ingredient gamma-cyhalothrin, a highly effective pyrethroid, Scion is proven to provide protection by acting as a sodium channel modulator against a variety of mosquito species and does not require using an IGR.

Scion’s formulation contains UVX Technology, a key component providing quick uptake and long residual. Combining gamma-cyhalothrin with UVX Technology, Scion is built to last, surviving even in extreme heat and high sunlight conditions for at least 75 days. PMPs can rest assured their clients will receive the best in mosquito treatment without the need for constant reapplication.

As an added layer of confidence, FMC offers the Scion Mosquito Assurance as part of its True Champions program, guaranteeing 75 days of no retreatment. If retreatment is required before 75 days within the program period, FMC will provide the amount of Scion required for a reapplication. This ensures that one purchase of a Scion treatment will provide adequate mosquito protection for at least 75 days and you and your customers the best return on your investment.

Your purchase of Scion can offer an additional benefit to your business and its financial confidence with the FMC True Champions Dynamic Rewards Rebate. PMPs enrolled in True Champions automatically accrue rebates on every purchase they make, which is then distributed back to them every six months.

Confidence is multi-faceted. Scion provides customer protection and PMP satisfaction. Scion’s 75-day Mosquito Assurance and Dynamic Rewards from FMC True Champions are the ultimate confidence boosters to invest in your business and keep mosquitos under control.
