Effective insect management requires targeting pests wherever they live; on the turf surface and within the soil profile. DuoCide combines two proven active ingredients and advanced granule technology to deliver a single, efficient solution for comprehensive insect control.
Dual-Active Formulation for Broad-Spectrum Control
DuoCide features carbaryl and bifenthrin, a powerful combination designed to control more than 50 common turf insects.
-
Carbaryl: a carbamate insecticide, provides fast knockdown and contact activity against surface feeders such as armyworms, sod webworms, and chinch bugs.
-
Bifenthrin: a pyrethroid, offers residual control and targets subsurface pests including grubs and mole crickets.
Together, these actives provide both immediate and extended protection, minimizing turf damage and reducing the need for follow-up applications.
Precision Placement with DG Technology
At the core of DuoCide’s performance is DG Technology, The Andersons’ patented dispersible granule carrier. Each granule rapidly breaks down upon contact with water, dispersing completely into thousands of micro-particles that move uniformly through the turf canopy and soil.
This results in:
-
Even active ingredient distribution throughout the root zone and thatch layer
-
Improved soil contact, enhancing efficacy on subsurface insects
-
Faster activation with minimal particle residue on the surface
DG Technology also improves handling and application precision, ensuring consistent coverage across fairways, greens, and other fine turf areas.
Efficient Application for Professional Turf Systems
For lawn care operators, DuoCide streamlines the insect control program by delivering complete above- and below-ground control in one application. This reduces operational complexity, saves time, and enhances treatment consistency.
Performance Highlights
