Insect Control a Snap for Wellmark
International
with Glass Ampoules
from James Alexander Corporation
Blairstown, NJ - The Gentrol® Point Source ™ roach control device and Quick Strike™ Fly
Abatement Strip from Wellmark International have more in common
than outstanding performance in pest control. Both devices use
crushable glass ampoules produced by James Alexander Corporation
as delivery systems.
“Versatile, reliable and tamper-resistant,
the glass ampoule offers package stability, active ingredient isolation,
and maximum shelf life,” explains Francesca Fazzolari, President
of James Alexander ”, “qualities that literally put
insect control at the fingertips of Gentrol® Point
Source and Quick Strike™ users.”
The glass ampoule used in Gentrol®
Point Source provides an innovative insect growth regulator delivery
system that is activated with a simple squeeze at the raised end
of the device. Since no measuring, mixing or spraying is required,
the package can be used by non-professionals. Since one Gentrol®
device covers a 75 sq. ft. area for up to 90 days, cockroaches never
have to come in direct contact with the device to be affected. Labeled
for use in all areas of food handling establishments, Gentrol®
can also be used in sensitive environments like hospitals.
The Quick Strike™ Fly Abatement Strip
uses two triple-action glass
ampoules at either end of the strip.
When an ampoule is crushed, a pad absorbs the two feeding attractants
and the fly sex pheromone that are contained in the ampoules, bringing
flies to the area where they begin feeding on a fast-acting insecticide
contained on a yellow-coated surface between the two ampoules.
The first ampoule is activated upon initial placement and typically
lasts for two to four weeks, at which time the second ampoule can
be activated for continued fly attraction.
“The economy and ease of use of James
Alexander’s glass ampoules make them the perfect packaging
option for a wide range of uses in other products as well,” Fazzolari
said. These include pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and toiletries,
anti-theft security devices, diagnostic and analytical reagents,
dental formulations, health and beauty aids, industrial lubricants
and solvents, adhesives and inks.
