Flies and beetles are known to transmit a number of poultry diseases as well as harbor several parasites. In addition, these insects constitute a nuisance to nearby residential areas and, in the case of beetles, consume large quantities of feed, driving up the cost of production.
Terregena provides effective, economical and safe balEnce™ adult fly, fly larvae, darkling beetle and hide beetle control products to the poultry layer, broiler, and turkey industries.
The active ingredient in balEnce™ products is a naturally occurring fungus (Beauveria bassiana). This fungus is a host-specific patswineen that targets and kills flies or beetles but does not affect humans, animals, pets, beneficial insects or the environment.
In order to provide our customers with a complete solution to their fly control problems, Terregena includes parasitic wasps as an important part of its product offering.
