Altriset is a new reduced-risk non-repellent termiticide that provides excellent control of subterranean termites with minimal impact on the environment. Altriset will eliminate termites in less than three months and will protect your home or business for more than 5 years when used in accordance with the label. Once termites come into contact with Altriset, their ability to feed on wood is halted within hours, resulting in death. The product is slowly passed throughout the colony by touch and contact, causing total colony elimination. Altriset's new class of chemistry provides a high-performing and long-lasting residual termite control product that is also safe to use--In addition to requiring no signal word on the label, DuPont Altriset Termiticide is the first and only liquid termiticide to be classified as reduced-risk under the U.S. EPA reduced-risk program: Altriset requires no special safety equipment, represents no health risk to humans or domestic animals when used as directed, and is safer for the environment. Active Ingredient: Chlorantraniliprole 18.4% Target pests: Subterranean Termites For use in: For Outdoor Use Only as an in-ground termite treatment around structures.

Altriset is a new reduced-risk non-repellent termiticide that provides excellent control of subterranean termites with

minimal impact on the environment. Altriset will eliminate termites in less than three months and will protect your

home or business for more than 5 years when used in accordance with the label. Once termites come into contact

with Altriset, their ability to feed on wood is halted within hours, resulting in death. The product is slowly passed

throughout the colony by touch and contact, causing total colony elimination. Altriset's new class of chemistry

provides a high-performing and long-lasting residual termite control product that is also safe to use--In addition to

requiring no signal word on the label, DuPont Altriset Termiticide is the first and only liquid termiticide to be

classified as reduced-risk under the U.S. EPA reduced-risk program: Altriset requires no special safety equipment,

represents no health risk to humans or domestic animals when used as directed, and is safer for the environment.

Is Altriset Better than Termidor?

Altriset introduces a whole new type of chemistry that is similar but different than Termidor SC. Both products are

transferred throughout the termite colony for total colony elimination. However, unlike Termidor, Altriset is the

first and only termiticide labeled Reduced-Risk by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Product Features:

- Eliminates termites in less than three months when used in accordance with the label

- Halts termite feeding within hours

- Provides residual protection for more than five years

- Non-repellent chemistry is indiscernible to termites

- Behavioral impact on termites enhances translocation throughout the colony

- Mode of action like no other termite control product

- Excellent environmental and toxicological profile

- First and only reduced-risk liquid Termiticide

Now there is a non-repellent termiticide that provides excellent

control of termites yet has minimal impact on the environment. The

team of scientists at DuPont has developed another new class of

chemistry with this latest innovation, providing high-performing

termite control and soil residual for ongoing structural protection.

DuPont™ Altriset™ the first soil-applied liquid termiticide launched in almost a decade is in a

class of chemistry with a mode of action like no other termite control product. Laboratory and

field study results prove Altriset™ halts termite feeding within hours while providing termite

elimination for critical long-term structural protection. Plus, Altriset™ offers an excellent

toxicological and environmental profile. In addition to requiring no signal word on the label,

DuPont™ Altriset™ is the first and only liquid termiticide to be classified as reduced-risk under

the U.S. EPA reduced-risk program.

Excellent Environmental Profile:

Dupont Altriset is a highly effective way to control termites while also minimizing impact on the

environment. Altriset also has an excellent environmental and toxicological profile – requiring

no signal word on the label.

Mode of Action:

Altriset is the first termiticide product featuring an active ingredient from the anthranilic diamide

class of chemistry. The class was inspired by research into the insecticide properties of a natural

substance found in the bark of trees and shrubs of the genus Ryania. Calteryx, the active

ingredient in Altriset, is a synthetic compound that affects the ryanodine receptors in the insect

muscle fiber. These receptors regulate the flow of calcium into the cell cytoplasm to control

muscle contraction. Altriset binds to the ryanodine and causes it to remain open, resulting in a

depletion of calcium ions that disrupts muscle contraction. Altriset was designed to target

ryanodine receptors of specific insects such as termites.
