The artilins anti-insect paint after application kill all flying and crawling insects that land on the painted surface. Insects like spiders, flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, ants, termites, woodborers, bugs, honeybees, etc. The paint has the unique composition that brings the fine microscopic insecticide crystals to the surface during drying. These are firmly bonded in the paint layer while projecting outside the paint layer to carry out the desired function. Insects legs being wet and with their nerve endings terminating in their feet, absorb the insecticide into its nervous system, which paralyses the insect leading to its death. This paint can be applied as a single topcoat on existing paints also. However, on glossy surfaces, the surface should be rubbed down to promote proper adhesion. Artilin also offers anti-fungus paints, anti dust mite paints, anti-bacteria paints etc.
