Rubit Cypermethrin: composition, instructions for use
To quickly get rid of crawling insects in the house, Rubit Cypermethrin solution will help. The concentrate is sold in 100 ml containers. It is suitable for indoors, basements and open space. The action of the drug is based on the penetration of the active substance – cypermethrin into the pest’s body, which slows down the functioning of nerve endings, leading to paralysis and death of insects. Advantages of the solution:
- resistance to temperature, UV rays;
- does not cause addiction in cockroaches;
- economical consumption;
- acceptable cost.
The disadvantage of the concentrate is the need to prepare a working solution.
Solution
On a note!
The active substance is toxic, but does not harm humans when used correctly.
According to the instructions, you should prepare a solution. To do this, prepare a container with 1.5 liters of water, add 25 ml of concentrated liquid to it, mix well and pour into a spray bottle. Certain requirements must be adhered to when processing premises:
- use protective equipment: rubber gloves, respirator, goggles, protective suit;
- close windows and doors, carefully treat corners and doors;
- ventilate and begin cleaning 2 hours after treatment.
It is recommended to take food and clothing out or hide it in locked cabinets. The clothes are taken outside and sprayed at a distance of 25 cm. They should remain hanging on the clothesline for airing for an hour.
Analogues:
- Get;
- Forsyth;
- Cypermethrin.
Components
The drug Rubit Zindan contains two active ingredients that act as poisons for ants. These parasites are resistant to any chemicals, but the simultaneous use of two different substances at once significantly reduces their resistance. More details about each substance:
- Imidacloprid is part of the group of neonicotinoids; its properties can compete with organophosphorus compounds and pyrethroids. Rubit Zindan contains 0.5% of this substance.
- Chlorpyrifos is used at a concentration of 0.25%. It belongs to the group of organophosphorus components.
In addition to active toxic substances, a product such as Rubit Zindan also includes other components: stabilizers, flavors, additives. The finished product becomes attractive to ants and cockroaches due to its smell: chocolate, honey. Insects feed on any waste, food crumbs from the table. But if there is an opportunity to “enjoy” something sweet, they will not miss it.
Dust
The cockroach repellent Rubit goes on sale in blue packaging. Upon contact with the poisonous substance, paralysis of the insects occurs, followed by death. The difficulty of using powder for treating premises is that it does not contain attractants - substances that attract cockroaches. Therefore, you should not count on high efficiency of dusts.
Dust
On a note!
The advantages of the powder include low cost and ease of processing. It is scattered on surfaces. The disadvantage is the possibility of poisoning, since the particles of the powder are light, they can be suspended in the air and penetrate into the human body. In hard-to-reach places it can be difficult to get rid of during cleaning.
Instructions for use:
- To kill cockroaches, the entire room is treated - the floor, baseboards, shelves in closets. Since cockroaches crawl on vertical surfaces and dishes, this causes some inconvenience. Therefore, it is recommended to combine dust with other Rubit insecticides.
- It is advisable to leave your home for a while.
- After processing the premises, they begin to clean them.
Analogues:
- Front double;
- Phenaxin;
- Thiuram.
Mechanism of action
Imidacloprid has a paralyzing effect. As a result of poisoning with this substance, nerve impulses in the insect’s body stop, and complete paralysis of the limbs and the entire body occurs. Nervous and digestive activity stops, and the ant dies in the shortest possible time. The effect of this substance also extends to the skin of the pest: ulcers appear and the structure of the limbs is destroyed. The advantage of Rubita is that it does not quickly become addictive to insects and can last up to 1 month.
Chlorpyrifos, contained in Rubit from ants, also has the ability to paralyze its victim. It acts differently: it disrupts the passage of nerve impulses, which leads to loss of nutritional and respiratory abilities, and soon the insect dies. The product works for 2 months, but if used for too long, the parasites get used to it.
Ant repellent "Rubit"
Glue traps
This insecticide option is even safer. In order to get to the poison, a curious pet will have to chew through the plastic box. But as soon as he does this, he will immediately spit out its contents, writhing in disgust - the insecticide is designed for just this effect. But the cockroaches will eat the bait with great appetite. The operating principle is as follows:
- a Prussian crawls into the trap;
- eats poison;
- spreads insecticide throughout its colony on its paws;
- all cockroaches die from suffocation due to paralysis of the respiratory system.
Moreover, the strength of the poisons remains in the preparation for up to 3-4 months. This is not a bad period of preventive protection!
Traps are even easier to use than gels. There is an adhesive layer on the back of each box. It reliably attaches the trap to the work surface, as a result of which the device does not cause any inconvenience:
- she is not big;
- unnoticeable;
- pretty.
Advantages and disadvantages
Rubit has been used for pest control for many years, so people already know about its effectiveness. Rubit Zindan gained particular popularity. Let's take a closer look at the strengths of the gel:

Gel: features, principle of action
The cockroach repellent Rubit, presented in the form of a gel, is popular among consumers as it is more effective and convenient to use. The result after its use depends on the degree of infection of the apartment or house. The active substance, malathion, has a detrimental effect on domestic cockroaches. They die within a few hours, after paralysis of their body occurs. Living insects that feed on excrement and particles of the shell of dead fellows also die over time. Advantages of Rubit in gel form:
- Ease of use. The substance is easily squeezed out of the tube; due to the existing spout, it can be used to treat bottlenecks.
- Has no smell. But, unlike humans, Prussians feel it thanks to the attractants it contains.
- Long lasting. The destruction of cockroaches is carried out within 14-49 days. The components included in the composition are resistant to sunlight, but are destroyed in alkaline and acidic environments, at high temperatures.
- Economical consumption.
- The anti-cockroach gel is colorless and is not visible on surfaces.
- The drug is moderately toxic. It is not dangerous to humans or pets.

Chalk: action, method of application
Presented in the form of a chalk, Rubit has proven its effectiveness in the fight against insects crawling indoors and outdoors. The active substance, deltamethrin, is poisonous. The toxic component has a negative effect on the nervous system of cockroaches, as a result of which they die. Advantages:
- long protective period;
- easy to apply;
- low cost.
Disadvantages include low efficiency in case of severe infection and unaesthetic appearance after application.
Chalk
The drug is produced in the form of chalk, packaged in 25 g. In addition to deltamethrin, it contains additional substances - alabaster, chalk and surfactants (surfactants). The action begins gradually. Crossing the chalk line, the poison enters the body. An infected cockroach passes the insecticide to its fellow cockroaches, who subsequently die.
Part of the chalk is removed from the packaging and lines are applied in places where cockroaches often live: near water pipes, along baseboards, at the joints of tiles, under the sink. Instructions for use of the drug are attached to the package. It must be strictly adhered to. For processing an area of 20 - 30 square meters. m. one package is enough. It is recommended to carry out processing with rubber gloves.
An analogue is the Mashenka chalk.
