Summit Mosquito Bits are a Bti-based granular formulation designed for rapid larval control in small containers and shallow water, providing an affordable, fast-acting spot-treatment option for residential or transient breeding sites. They complement longer-lasting IGR products (such as Altosid or NyGuard) in integrated approaches by delivering immediate reductions in larval numbers while IGRs suppress subsequent generations, though their shorter persistence means more frequent re-treatment in high-pressure areas.
