Product Details

Description

Certan is a preventative treatment that controls wax moths. It is a safe to use, harmless to honey bees, and environmentally friendly treatment that contains a concentrated solution of Bacillus thuringiensis, a micro-organism. Use after harvesting honey to kill young wax moth larvae. One application is effective against wax moths through the following season. Does not leave any residue in wax or honey.

Must be diluted in water to 5% (or 1 part Certan to 19 parts water). Once diluted, it must be used the same day for best results. In warmer climates or conditions, once dry, supers should be protected from reinfestation by being wrapped or stored in an enclosed space.

Certan is not available for distribution, sale, or use outside the US.

    CERTAN

    by Ken on Nov 29, 2024

    Have been using for years. Very effective. But I have lost frames out of neglect. I let them sit for several years without reapplying. My bad. I have never used a respirator or long shirts. That's a CYA statement.

    Is Certan safe

    by John on Aug 31, 2024

    MANN LAKE RESPONSE: Certan is advertised as a natural and effective product, which can be confusing when considering the extensive PPE requirements listed on the bottle. The detailed warnings and PPE recommendations, such as wearing a respirator and covering all skin, are often a precautionary measure to ensure safety during use. Even natural products can have components that may cause irritation or respiratory issues if not handled properly. The stringent safety guidelines are meant to protect users and ensure that the product is applied correctly and safely. If you have concerns about the safety of using Certan, it’s a good idea to follow the recommended precautions and consult the product’s safety data sheet for more detailed information. This will help ensure that you are using the product safely and effectively. ********************************** ********************************** ************************************************* REVIEW: Certan is advertised as safe and effective. An all natural product yet, the warnings on the bottle for PPE are many including a respirator and covering all skin. I haven’t used the product yet, I haven’t assembled all the needed PPE yet. If this stuff is so safe why are the warnings and PPE requirements like a highly hazardous substance?
