Safeguard Your Environment
Max Kill Dusta-Cide 6 protects uninfested, stored grain from insect attack and propagation with its active ingredient, 6% premium grade malathion. Dusta-Cide 6 provides protection for wheat, barley, corn, oats, and rye, both stored crops and stored seed. The formulation of corn flour as the inert carrier results in a highly flowable dust that is packaged in a convenient, 50-lb poly-lined bulk box. Dusta-Cide can be applied uniformly throughout the commodity, mixed with grain during transfer into storage, or can be applied as a surface treatment in grain storage units for additional protection.
