MOSQUITO CONTROL 
MALATHION METHOXYCHLOR SPRAY is effective in the control of 
Mosquitoes, both Adult and larva on non-Agricultural land and may be 
applied as a fog or mist from suitable equipment. Remove motor vehicles 
from spray area or wash immediately after spraying. Spray may damage 
paint finish. 
ADULT MOSOUITOES 
THERMAL FOG EQUIPMENT: Thermal fogging is more effective in early 
morning and late evening. Application time for control of adult mosqui­
toes should coincide with time of most activity of the mosquito. Avoid 
thermal fogging when winds exceed 5 miles per hour as effectiveness is 
reduced.
