Arilon Insecticide

Description

ARILON Insecticide by Syngenta is a professional-grade, non-repellent residual insecticide designed for effective control of ants, cockroaches, house flies and subterranean termites in approved treatment situations. Formulated with 200 g/kg indoxacarb, this advanced Group 22A insecticide provides targeted insect control, extended residual performance and effective transfer of the active ingredient through pest populations.

Featuring Syngenta’s proven indoxacarb technology, ARILON allows insects to contact treated surfaces without being repelled, helping ensure effective exposure and reducing the likelihood of pests avoiding treated areas. Its unique mode of action makes it a valuable option for professional pest managers undertaking general pest control treatments, cockroach management, ant control and remedial termite treatments.

ARILON is formulated as an easy-to-use Water Dispersible Granule (WDG) that mixes with water to produce a residual insecticide spray. Suitable for approved indoor and outdoor applications, it can be applied to a wide range of building surfaces in domestic, commercial, industrial and public environments.

A major advantage of ARILON is its compatibility with Syngenta’s ADVION Cockroach Gel, ADVION Ant Gel and OPTIGARD Ant Bait Gel. Its non-repellent properties allow pest management professionals to combine residual surface treatments with targeted baiting strategies as part of an integrated pest management program.

Providing up to six months of residual control against ants, cockroaches and house flies under suitable conditions, ARILON is a versatile professional insecticide for both active pest infestations and routine preventative treatments.

Professional termite control applications: Registered for direct treatment of subterranean termite activity, including Coptotermes, Mastotermes and Schedorhinotermes species.
Ideal for pyrethroid resistance management: Provides a different mode of action from Group 3A synthetic pyrethroid insecticides.
Indoor and outdoor treatments: Suitable for approved applications around residential properties, commercial buildings and industrial facilities.
Odourless and non-staining: Suitable for discreet applications on many common building surfaces, subject to surface compatibility.
Water Dispersible Granule formulation: Convenient concentrated granules that disperse in water for professional spray applications.

Target Pests

ARILON Insecticide is registered in Australia for the following pest groups:

Ants: Provides non-repellent residual control of ants around building entry points, perimeter areas and other approved treatment locations.

Cockroaches: Suitable for targeted treatments of cockroach harbourages, building perimeters and areas of established cockroach activity. ARILON can also complement professional cockroach gel baiting programs.

House Flies: Provides residual control on approved surfaces where house flies commonly land and rest, including walls, ceilings and other suitable locations.

Subterranean Termites: Registered for direct remedial treatment of subterranean termite activity, including species such as:

Coptotermes acinaciformis

How ARILON Insecticide Works

ARILON Insecticide contains indoxacarb, an oxadiazine insecticide belonging to Group 22A.

Indoxacarb acts as a pro-insecticide, meaning it undergoes bioactivation within the target insect before exerting its full insecticidal effect.

Once activated, indoxacarb disrupts voltage-dependent sodium channels in the insect nervous system. This interferes with normal nerve function, resulting in paralysis and eventual death.

Unlike conventional repellent pyrethroid insecticides, ARILON does not produce an immediate flushing effect or rapid knockdown. This allows insects to remain in contact with treated areas and, in some situations, transfer the active ingredient to other members of the population.

This mode of action offers several advantages for professional pest managers:

Non-repellent exposure: Insects can cross treated surfaces without detecting and avoiding the insecticide.

Delayed insecticidal activity: Mortality may take up to 24 hours following exposure to a fresh application, allowing time for contact and potential transfer.

Population-level control: Transfer between insects can contribute to control beyond the initially exposed individuals.

Compatibility with baiting systems: ARILON can be used alongside professional ant and cockroach gel baits as part of an integrated treatment strategy.

ARILON Insecticide for Cockroach and Ant Control

For professional pest managers dealing with persistent cockroach or ant infestations, ARILON provides an alternative to conventional repellent residual sprays.

Its non-repellent formulation allows insects to continue moving through treated harbourages and foraging areas, increasing the opportunity for exposure to indoxacarb.

ARILON can also be incorporated into treatment programs using ADVION Cockroach Gel, ADVION Evolution Cockroach Gel, ADVION Ant Gel or OPTIGARD Ant Bait Gel.

By combining appropriate residual surface applications with targeted bait placements, pest management technicians can address exposed insects, concealed harbourages and ongoing pest activity.

This approach can be particularly useful in commercial kitchens, food-related facilities, warehouses and other environments where persistent infestations require a coordinated treatment strategy.

ARILON Insecticide for Remedial Termite Control

In addition to general pest control, ARILON is registered for the direct treatment of subterranean termite infestations in specified locations.

Approved applications include treatments to active termite nests within fence posts, poles and trees, as well as targeted treatment of termite activity within wall cavities.

Its non-repellent properties support exposure and transfer through termite populations, helping professional termite technicians manage active infestations.

ARILON must not be relied upon as a standalone structural termite management treatment. Remedial applications should form part of a comprehensive termite management program, with additional approved protection measures implemented in accordance with the product label and relevant Australian Standards.
