About This Product

BASF Cy-Kick CS is a professional-grade cyfluthrin insecticide that uses SmartCap microencapsulation technology to deliver a long residual and a mobile lethal dose that attaches to and moves with the insect. The 16-oz concentrate mixes at 1–2 oz per gallon of water and can be applied with handheld or backpack sprayers. It controls 55+ common structural pests including ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, earwigs, fleas, millipedes, flies, mosquitoes, scorpions, spiders, wasps, bees, and yellowjackets. Effective within 2–3 days of application.

Why Pest Control Bros Recommends This

BASF Cy-Kick CS is a professional pest control industry staple — the SmartCap microencapsulation technology is BASF's proprietary innovation that creates capsules small enough to adhere to insect cuticles and be carried back to the nest. This "mobile lethal dose" mechanism is particularly effective against ants and cockroaches. The 6% cyfluthrin concentration and broad 55+ pest label make it one of the most versatile professional-grade products available to homeowners.

Using This Product in Arizona

Cy-Kick CS is widely used by Arizona pest control professionals for bark scorpion control because cyfluthrin's microencapsulated formulation provides excellent residual on the stucco, concrete, and block walls common in Arizona construction. Mix at 1 oz per gallon for general pest control and 2 oz per gallon for scorpion and heavy ant infestations. Apply around the foundation, under eaves, and in expansion joints every 30–45 days during Arizona's peak pest season.
