Product Overview

PT 565 Plus XLO is a non-residual contact insecticide with a slight odor. It is labeled for just about every insect you could have a problem with, including bed bugs. This is also known as Prescription Treatment (PT) 565 Plus XLO. 565 Plus XLO is ideal for quick knockdown of listed insects and flushing cracks and crevices. It can also be used as a void treatment and as a space spray for flying insects, pantry pests, stored product pests, and more.

565 Plus XLO Aerosol must be above 60 degrees F for use. If can temperature is below 60 degrees F, store at room temperature until a temperature above 60 degrees F is reached.

565 Plus XLO Aerosol comes with 2 different actuators.  One to use for a space spray, and the other to use with the crack and crevice straw.  The crack and crevice straw will NOT fit into the space spray actuator.

BASF has recently introduced a new 14 oz size can that will replace the 20 oz can.

Details

How 565 Plus XLO Works

565 Plus XLO combines the power of natural pyrethrins with two powerful synergists in a pressurized insecticide. Pyrethrins are derived from the Chrysanthemum flower and have a quick action that attacks an insect’s central nervous system. Pyrethrins also act as irritants to insects, making it an effective flushing agent, and as a repellent to keep insects away. The complexity of pyrethrins means insect resistance is not a concern. 565 Plus XLO also contains piperonyl butoxide and MGK-264, two synergists that help to stabilize and boost the power of the natural pyrethrins.

565 Plus XLO is effective as a contact kill only, meaning it has no further insecticidal properties once the spray application is dry.

Target Uses of 565 Plus XLO

565 Plus XLO Aerosol is best used as a crack and crevice treatment in wall voids, underneath baseboards, around window sills, around doorways, and any other entry points. 565 Plus is frequently preferred as a contact kill for exposed pests and as a flushing agent for cracks and crevices to identify harborage sites of pests such as cockroaches. 565 Plus XLO is also labeled to be used a space spray for many pests, including flying insects, stored product pests, and pantry pests, making it a great alternative to traditional foggers. 565 Plus XLO is easier and safer to use, treatment is faster, and reapplications can be made more frequently (always follow the label directions).

565 Plus XLO can be used in sensitive areas where residual sprays may not be permitted, or it can be used in conjunction with residual methods as a contact kill. Do not apply 565 Plus XLO on top of baits or in areas where baits will be applied.

Use the included straw for crack and crevice and flushing treatments. Use the open actuator for space spray and spot treatments.

ACTIVE INGREDIENT: Pyrethrins 0.5%, Piperonyl Butoxide 1.0%, MGK-264 1.0%

565 Plus XLO Application Instructions

Use 565 Plus XLO where listed pests are found or known to harbor for contact, flushing, and void treatments.

Crack and Crevice Application:

Use PT 565 Plus XLO with the supplied actuator and injection tube or other aerosol equipment. Inject into cracks and crevices or void spaces where insects may be harboring, living and breeding. Place injector tip into cracks, crevices, holes, and other small openings. Apply product for 1 second for light infestations, move injector tip along cracks while treating at the rate of 3 linear feet per second. For heavy infestations, move injector tip along at 1 linear ft. per sec. For wall and equipment voids, treat at a rate of 5-10 seconds per 3 cubic feet. Several holes may be required in long-running voids.

Space Treatment:

Calculate the cubic footage to be treated and apply at the dosage rate specified below for the pest(s) to be treated. Ventilate treated areas before reoccupying.

Always read the product label completely before use.

*Exact yield will vary with use because this is a ready-to-use product. The large 20 oz. can yields many applications.

565 Plus XLO Standard Application Rates:

  • 3 feet/second, 1 second at a time – Light infestations
  • 1 foot/second, 1 second at a time – Heavy infestations
  • 1-3 seconds per 1,000 sq. ft. – Flying insects indoors

Open cabinets and doors in area to be treated. Turn off air conditioners and fans and close doors and windows before treating. Disperse toward area suspected of harboring the greatest insect infestations. Disperse in all locations contacting as many insects as possible. Keep area closed for 15 minutes. Open and ventilate the treated area before reoccupying. Treatment may be repeated every 3 days if necessary. Inspections may be made on a daily basis.

Bed Bugs: Take bed apart and treat cracks, joints and interior of framework. Treat mattresses and box springs; especially tufts, folds and edges. Also treat picture frames, moldings and all cracks and crevices in the room. Do not use in patient rooms in hospitals and nursing homes for treatment of bed bugs. NOT recommended for the sole protection from bed bugs.

Fleas in Buildings: Hold product 36” above floor and direct toward floor and lower walls at a rate of 10 seconds per 100 sq. ft. making sure that all floor, sofa and chair surfaces are contacted. Keep area closed for 15 minutes. Open and ventilate before reoccupying. Treatment may be repeated daily if necessary. Pets also should be treated with products approved for such use.

Outdoors

Ground Application (Flies, Gnats, Mosquitoes): Treat open areas near buildings and in campgrounds. Best results are obtained when wind speed is 5 MPH or less. Apply at a rate of 1.5-2 sec. per 1,000 sq. ft.

Mud Dauber and Wasp Nests: Apply mist directly on insects and their nests from approximately 18”. Contacted insects will fly away from fog. Applications should be made in late evening when insects are at rest. Disperse into hiding and breeding places contacting as many insects as possible.

    Works and Keeps working, worth your money

    By David on 04/11/2010

    Worth every penny. I bought this after having a massive infestation from my next door neighbor in the building where I used to live. I tried all the stuff in local supermarkets like Raid and other brands that were like spraying bad air fresheners on the roaches. I called an exterminator, this is what he used, and IT WORKS WONDERS. About a year later I moved to a different building and had a roach problem again, and this time I ordered this 565 Plus, and now three years later I moved into a home, first thing before unpacking I sprayed some in the closets, kitchen, bathroom and laundry room. My bottle is finished and I am ordering another one. By the way it works on ants and flying big roaches as well, in my opinion this is the best pest spray I have ever used. Buy it and tell all of your friends about it!

    By Chrissy on 03/31/2011

    Verified Purchase

    I bought this to use in my apartment for roaches. It works great. The only downfall is that I have to spray it around my house about every 4 days because they keep coming back.

Q
what is a good flush for roaches to flush them out we used it in Ga.
A
565 Plus XLO would be a great product to use to flush roaches out of hiding. It contains pyrethrins which are highly irritating to roaches and will usually flush them right out of hiding.

Q
I am searching for a contact spray for flushing and killing German cockroaches.

I cannot quite afford a cold fogger such as the B&G or Actisol units yet, so I need a way to inject product into cracks and crevices. I will be following up the treatments with residuals, dusts and baits, but need a quick initial knockdown.

A
565 PLus Aerosol would be a great flushing agent and contact killer for German roaches. 565 PLus does come with a straw attachment for spraying into cracks, crevices and voids.

Q
Is 565 PLUS XLO safe around babies and children?

Is it safe to use on the baseboards if you have a baby that is crawling, or there are children playing on the floors near the baseboards?

A
Yes, 565 PLUS XLO contains the active ingredient pyrethrin, a natural botanical insecticide made from chrysanthemum flowers. All infants and children should be out of the area during the application and they can return as soon as the treated area is dry. We also recommend venting the treated area for about 30 minutes prior to sensitive individuals returning.

Q
Is 565 Plus XLO aerosol safe to use around pregnant women?
A

565 Plus XLO aerosol is meant to be applied along baseboards and in crack and crevices, places that the pregnant mother would not contact.  This product does have a slight odor, but other than that it is very safe to use in the home with children and pets or mothers-to-be. Once 565 Plus XLO is dry, it will quickly degrade and will not linger in the environment.
