Stop mosquitoes before they become living, breeding, disease carrying adults.

How AGNIQUE® MMF Works

  • The invisible monomolecular film quickly spreads over standing water habitats.
  • The film reduces the surface tension of the water making it difficult for the mosquito larvae and pupae to attach and causes them to drown.
  • Emerging mosquitoes and midges are unable to fully emerge and will drown.
  • Field tests have shown AGNIQUE® MMF to persist for up to 21 days, thus providing long lasting control of mosquitoes and midges.

Spectrum and Rate of Activity
AGNIQUE® MMF Mosquito Larvicide and Pupicide is effective on all species of mosquitoes and chronomid midges that breed in standing water and require the air/water interface in their lifecycle.

For most mosquito species, larval and pupal stages will be controlled within 48 to 96 hours. The rate of kill will be slower if water temperatures are cold (5-10 °C, 40 – 50 °F) or for species that don’t require as much oxygen (e.g. aedes aegypti). The film persistence of AGNIQUE® MMF, coupled with its ability to control emerging adults, will ensure sucessful control even with these difficult species and/or under these difficult conditoins.

AGNIQUE® MMF also successfully controls chronomid midges, and mosquitoes that have minimal surface contact such as coquillettidia spp. or mansonia spp. These treatments will target the emerging adult lifestage. For midge control, reapplication of AGNIQUE® MMF is recommended ever two weeks during the midge season to ensure continuous control.
