The product may be used in the food industry only in the absence of food, except in warehouses where goods are properly packaged.

Take appropriate measures to ensure that food, equipment and utensils in previously treated areas contain no active substance residues.

Use only in hidden, hard-to-reach locations protected from water.

Use an integrated pest management approach (chemical and physical methods, hygiene measures) adapted to local conditions.
