Description

Difenacoum CAS NO 56073-07-5 is a potent second-generation anticoagulant rodenticide belonging to the 4-hydroxycoumarin class. Its primary value lies in its high efficacy against warfarin-resistant rodents, making it a critical tool for professional pest management. This product is essential for industries and services requiring reliable, long-term rodent population control, including agriculture, food storage, public health, and professional extermination services.

Application

• Professional Rodent Control: Primary active ingredient in commercial rodenticide baits for controlling rats and mice, particularly those resistant to first-generation anticoagulants.
• Agricultural Protection: Used to protect crops, stored grains, and farm infrastructure from rodent damage and contamination.
• Public Health Programs: Employed in municipal and government-led initiatives to manage rodent populations in urban and suburban areas to prevent disease spread.
• Food Industry Sanitation: Critical for integrated pest management (IPM) programs in food processing plants, warehouses, and storage facilities to meet health and safety standards.
• Structural Pest Management: Applied by licensed pest control operators (PCOs) for perimeter defense and treatment of infestations in residential and commercial buildings.
• Manufacturing of Formulated Baits: Serves as the technical-grade active ingredient for manufacturers producing ready-to-use pellets, blocks, and liquid concentrates.
