Stop Insects from Maturing with the Growth Regulator
It's well known that pests are difficult to get rid of. particularly when it comes to pests such as bedbugs, as treatment may eradicate every adult bed bug, but the eggs are left unbroken, allowing the bugs to hatch and proliferate swiftly. A growth regulator found in Xterminate's Protector C Spray stops insects from developing and laying new eggs. This stops infestations from returning and eliminating them.
Use as a Surface or Space Spray
Protector C Super works on contact with an insect, which means it can be used as a surface and a space spray. With a quick knock-down-and kill effect, it makes the perfect space spray for dealing with annoying houseflies and moths. However, the formula stays active when sprayed onto surfaces, meaning you can protect your home against crawling insects like bed bugs, silverfish, and more.

It can kill a whole range of flying and crawling insects so its perfect for if you have multiple pests or are not quite sure what bug it is.

Laborious application into all nooks and crannies including furniture beds etc. Where live bugs were encountered they were quickly dispatched with this spray.

Great product and keeps the bugs at bay. The nozzle at times does not always work and you need to fiddle around with it for continued use which can be annoying. It can be strong when you spray a lot down but does the job. Excellent!

So far so good but sometimes I struggled at times with the sprayer attachment as it doesn’t always spray easily and you have to fiddle around to get it to spray but apart from this does the job

Frequently asked questions
Hi. I have just purchased your protector c super spray. I came across signs of bedbugs in my mattress where the buttons are. No signs if live ones. I have washed all the bedlinen etc. We have no signs of bites but I feel I have been bit a few times. Am I OK to just use the spray today and sleep in the bed tonight? Would I need to repeat?
The spray can be used on your carpets curtains and upholstery as well as your mattress but not your bedding. Bed Bugs tend to hide along the stitching or behind the buttons on your mattress. They can also hide behind your headboard or picture frames in your room. Please hoover your room before applying a light mist all the way around your room including your mattress. The spray can be applied again after you hoover. Once the treated area is dry yu can sleep in the room again. The spray can last upto 4 to 6 weeks if undisturbed.
Can this be used to stop swarming rove beetles from entering my property? They get in through closed windows and doors. We have been keeping them at bay with a mixture of 6 essential oils, water, and white vinegar. This gets sprayed every day but all this is ruining the windows, paintwork and wooden window sills. So wanted to spray this around them instead to limit the amount it needs spraying. Will this work effectively enough if it's sprayed every few weeks rather than every day. Thanks
The Protector C Super will not stop the rove beetle entering the property as it is not an instant kill product. However, if sprayed on the entrances, the beetle will have to walk across it and pick it up as it does so. In turn, the product will be ingested and kill the beetle within 24 hours.
For annual treatment of very mild infections of carpet moth, would you recommend C or C Super. I understand that neither will kill eggs. Kill lavae?
The super version comes with the added growth regulator. This stops the carpet moth developing to the next stage of life. No product will penetrate the egg. But once hatched this will kill the larvae and insect.
Will this get rid of our saw flies problem
No this would not be suitable near fruit or vegetables. We would recommend the Pyrethrum 5ec linked below

https://www.hygienesuppliesdirect.com/products/prod132761-pyrethrum-5ec-250ml-kill-aphids
Should any PPE be worn when spraying this? Respirator, googles, gloves etc?
No, PPE is required but can it be used, please follow the label instructions. A light mist is required.
Will this kill silverfish?
Yes, this will kill any flying or crawling insects including silverfish.
I know I have a red ant nest inside the house wall. I also know where they enter/exit. They seem to be dormant at the moment. When do you suggest I treat them and what with ?

We are finishing renovations on an old house. All the walls have been plastered with wet lime plaster. We have high humidity and running a dehumidifier.

This is a water-based product and is safe to use. But we always recommend testing a small inconspicuous area first.

Yes you can do this, just use a cap full or two in to your diluted solution.
What insecticide does Protector C contain and at what concentration.
0.09% Cypermethrin
Hi,
We just sprayed the Protector C along with the fumer we got in the kit. Is it the right procedure to use?
Thanks
It does not matter which way the application is administered as long as the correct amount of product is used.
I have a dog which has a tendancy to lick my wooden floor. Once dry is it harmless to dogs or can this be a problem.
If enough of the product is consumed this may be harmful.
Hi
I have a book lice problem and I also keep tropical fish, are any of the treatments safe to use?
Thanks
Unfortunately the Protector range of pest control products is extremely toxic to marine life.
However the presence of booklice denotes high levels of humidity in the area as such rather than pest control we would recommend a dehumidifier, as once the humdity is gone the booklice in turn will disapear.
The following unit would be suitable for your needs: https://www.hygienesuppliesdirect.com/products/prod204909

Hello, I need some advice. Last June found a few bedbugs in my bed. Still don't know where they came from. Treated proffessionally x 3. can't see any now but still being bitten on arms and sometimes on ankles. told by professional to get rid of my bed base as it is of a construction with air holes on the under side. really can't afford to do this. I have been using Rentakill spray without success, what do you suggest please. ps as there is no sign of bugs but I am getting bitten in groups of
The bites may be bed bugs. Look for little black spots on your bedding, which is a sign of bed bugs. They are not active during the day, and avoid daylight, so look in areas they can hide, on and around the bed. We would advise you to use our Fortefog fumers, followed by the Protector C spray, and repeat at 7 - 10 day intervals.
Will this be effective on tiles? Will this stain the grouting?
We would recomment the Protector Natural Aerosol to be used on your tiles and not the Protector C Spray.

For a carpet moth infestation what is the correct application method. I bought spray, foggers & powders. Which do you use first. Do I need to lift all my carpet edges to hoover up larvae under the carpet or will the product just kill
Them ?
We would recommend to leave the smoke bombs for up to three hours before returning to the room. Once aired, you can spray the Protector C spray which can take around 15 minutes to dry. The powder can be applied around electric appliances and sockets and under the edges of your carpet. The room can then be used as normal. Retreatment would be required 7 to 10 days later.
Would this kill soil mites ?
No, but we would recommend the Pyrethrum 5ec

I have purchased the Protector C Super for fleas. Con I just confirm that it interrupts te growth cycle of the flea. And that it needs a further application possibly accompanied by foggers and bombs.
Regards
Sharon Scott
Yes, this will stop the insect from progressing to the next stage in the growth cycle. The spray can last for up to around 6 weeks if left undisturbed. Foggers can also be used but would need to be re-applied after 7 to 10 days.
I have been going crazy 4 moths I had a man treatment my home twice which he said was gone he was no good now I have got this 6 bed treatment package last Resulted what do I use first they are everywhere and how do I kill eggs
Please purchase a kit with enough treatment for the infected rooms and for the retreatment 7 to 10 days later.
Use the Fumers first then Residex P Powder and then the Protector C spray by following the instructions. Repeat the Fumers 7 to 10 days later. By repeating the treatment the eggs will hatch and will not be able to get to the adult stage and lay any more eggs.
