IGI Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) Powered by Liphatech provides intelligent solutions with measurable benefits for pest management professionals (PMPs) working to control burrowing rodents. It is an alternative rodent control system available to PMPs. CO₂ must be registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to be used as a pesticide. IGI CO₂ is the only 99.9 percent CO₂ gas of its kind approved by the EPA as a pesticide, the company says.
The use of CO₂ as a pesticide is consistent with integrated pest management (IPM) protocols and ideologies and provides additional rodent control options to PMPs. This is especially important as certain states and the pest industry look to new and alternative methods for controlling pests.
IGI CO₂ is not a machine but a system. IGI CO₂ cylinders can be delivered right to your business. It is non-flammable, invisible, odorless and quietly applied.
The system’s “The Eliminator” Injection Device is specially designed to kill rats and other rodent pests in their burrows. Applying IGI CO₂ to burrows at a low rate of pressure and at a regulated amount quickly asphyxiates rodents.
IGI CO₂ can be used to treat burrows in municipal, residential, commercial and field settings, and even next to occupied buildings. Burrowing rodents that can be successfully controlled with IGI CO2 include rats, ground squirrels, pocket gophers and moles. In every state but California, it can also control groundhogs and voles.
Liphatech provides customers a full demonstration for proper and effective use of IGI CO₂, including showing PMPs how to regulate gas flow and probe holes with The Eliminator. Understanding rodent behavior is key, and an inspection can provide more insight about active burrows and runways.
