VectoBac WDG is a water-dispersible granule designed to control mosquito larvae. It can be applied via ground spraying or aerial application to various outdoor sites, including ditches, standing pools, marshes, rice fields, and water-holding containers like tires or birdbaths. It may also be used in polluted water, such as sewage or animal waste lagoons, and in fields with growing crops.
