Summit B.t.i. Granules 40 lb Bag helps mosquito-control crews treat standing water before larvae become biting adults. These EPA-registered Bti granules release a biological mosquito larvicide across the water surface, then settle into the larval feeding zone for dependable route, ditch, pond, marsh, and catch-basin work.

Fast larval kill; controls mosquito larvae within 24 hours
Targeted Bti action; larvae ingest the active in treated water
Up to 14 days; supports cleaner treatment intervals in moderate water
Broad water fit; works across listed standing-water mosquito habitats
Flexible application; apply by aerial, ground, or manual equipment
40 lb format; built for professional field programs and route work

Choose it for efficient granular mosquito larval control where standing water drives pressure.

Always follow label directions.

Weight: 42 Lbs. (Length: 14" x Width: 7" x Height: 20")

Product Description

Granular Bti Control for Standing-Water Mosquito Pressure

Summit B.t.i. Granules 40 lb Bag gives professional crews a simple, scalable way to treat mosquito larvae where standing water collects. The corn-cob granules spread across the water surface, release Bti, and settle where larvae feed, making the format practical for ditches, marshes, ponds, catch basins, retention areas, and route-based mosquito abatement work.

Key Features & Benefits

Feature	Benefit
2.86% Bti SUM-6218	Targets mosquito larvae with a microbial active ingredient they ingest in treated water.
Light-brown corn-cob granules	Easy-to-broadcast dry format fits field crews that need acreage-scale coverage.
24-hour larval kill	Helps reduce larvae before they mature into biting adult mosquitoes.
Up to 14 days control	Supports 7- to 14-day retreatment planning in low to moderate organic water.
40 lb bag	Gives professional programs a practical bulk size for routes and larger habitats.

Directions & Dosing Snapshot

Use Case	Label Rate	Application Notes
Standing water, relatively clean to moderate organic content	2.5 to 10 lb per acre of water	Use the lower rate for relatively clean water and higher rate as organic content increases.
Deep or polluted water	10 to 20 lb per acre of water	Use this range when water is deep, polluted, or harder for larvae to contact.
Mostly late 3rd and 4th instar mosquito larvae	10 to 20 lb per acre of water	Higher rates are used when later-stage larvae are the dominant population.
Aquaponics and hydroponics mosquito larvae	Use the high application rate and frequency	Nutrient-rich systems can favor larval growth, so use the high mosquito-abatement guidance.
Retreatment planning	7- to 14-day interval	Interval depends on starting rate, larval density, organic content, and monitoring.

Always follow the full label for complete directions, restrictions, and site-specific requirements.

Why Choose Granular Bti Larvicide?

Targets the source: Treat larvae in water before they become flying adult mosquitoes.
Fits field reality: Dry granules work with aerial, ground, or manual broadcast workflows.
Easy to plan: Clear per-acre rates help crews match treatment to water condition and larvae stage.

What are Summit B.t.i. Granules 40 lb Bag used for?

Summit B.t.i. Granules 40 lb Bag is a granular biological mosquito larvicide for standing water where mosquito larvae occur. It is built for professional mosquito abatement work in habitats such as ditches, catch basins, marshes, ponds, stormwater retention areas, flood water, rain barrels, unused pools, and similar water sites. The 40 lb bag is best suited for route work, larger habitats, and crews that need a dry granular format.

Do Summit B.t.i. Granules control adult mosquitoes?

No, Summit B.t.i. Granules target mosquito larvae in standing water, not adult mosquitoes flying in the air. The goal is to treat breeding water before larvae mature into biting adults. For adult mosquito pressure, use a separate adult-control product that matches the site and program.

How much Summit B.t.i. Granules do I use per acre for mosquito larvae?

Summit B.t.i. Granules use rates for the 40 lb bag range from 2.5 to 10 lb per acre of water for relatively clean to higher-organic water. Use 10 to 20 lb per acre of water in deep or polluted water, or when mostly late 3rd and 4th instar mosquito larvae are present. Rate selection depends on water condition, organic content, larvae stage, larval density, and monitoring.

Are Bti granules a good choice for catch basins, ditches, ponds, and stormwater retention areas?

Yes, Summit B.t.i. Granules fit many listed standing-water mosquito habitats, including catch basins, roadside ditches, irrigation ditches, ponds, lakes, stormwater retention areas, marshes, flood water, and open drains. The granular format makes sense where crews need to broadcast product across water surfaces by ground, aerial, or manual application. Uniform coverage matters for best results.

How fast do Summit B.t.i. Granules work?

Summit B.t.i. Granules provide quick larval kill within 24 hours. Control can last up to 14 days in water with low to moderate organic content. Follow-up monitoring helps determine whether retreatment should happen closer to 7 days or 14 days.

How often should Summit B.t.i. Granules be reapplied?

Summit B.t.i. Granules use a 7- to 14-day interval between applications. The best interval depends on the starting rate, larval population density, organic content in the water, and field monitoring after treatment. Heavier organic conditions, late-stage larvae, or continued breeding pressure often call for closer monitoring.

Can Summit B.t.i. Granules be applied by aerial or ground equipment?

Yes, Summit B.t.i. Granules can be applied by conventional aerial equipment, conventional ground equipment, or manually. That flexibility makes the 40 lb bag useful for municipal, commercial, and field-route mosquito programs. Equipment should be calibrated, and application planning should account for weather and drift variables.

What is the difference between Bti granules and Bti briquets or dunks?

Summit B.t.i. Granules are a dry broadcast format for treating standing water across routes, ditches, ponds, marshes, and similar habitats. Bti briquets or dunks are solid placement formats that fit different use patterns and should be chosen by site, water movement, control goal, and product directions. Granules are a strong choice when crews want a broadcastable larvicide instead of placing individual units.

What is the difference between granular Bti larvicide and liquid Bti larvicide?

Granular Bti larvicide gives crews a dry product that can be broadcast over standing water manually or with ground or aerial equipment. Liquid Bti larvicides fit spray or metered workflows, depending on the product and application program. Choose Summit B.t.i. Granules when a 40 lb dry bag is the better fit for route staging, broadcast coverage, and standing-water mosquito habitats.

Can Summit B.t.i. Granules be used in drinking water reservoirs?

No, Summit B.t.i. Granules should not be applied directly to treated, finished drinking water reservoirs. They are intended for listed standing-water habitats where mosquito larvae occur. Use the product only in approved sites and with the required handling precautions.
