Zep Inc EWHIK16 Wasp Hornet Killer Aerosol 16 Oz

Product Description

The ZEP INC EWHIK16 is a 16 oz aerosol insecticide formulated for fast knockdown of stinging insects including wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets. Powered by active ingredients Tetramethrin and Permethrin, it delivers a pressurized jet blast that reaches up to 22 feet, allowing the applicator to treat nests from a safe standoff distance. The formula provides both quick knockdown on contact and residual action to kill insects returning to the nest. The spray is rated non-conductive up to 47,300 volts, making it appropriate for use around electrical equipment when applied at a safe distance.

This product is suited for residential and light commercial pest control applications. Electricians, HVAC technicians, pool service pros, and general maintenance personnel frequently encounter stinging insect nests in equipment enclosures, eave overhangs, utility boxes, and outdoor mechanical areas. The 22-foot jet spray range allows treatment without direct proximity to the nest. Residual action continues to work after initial application, reducing the need for repeat treatments in the same season.

Installation Notes

Application should be performed by a competent adult following all label directions; in regulated environments, local pest control licensing requirements may apply. Treat nests at dusk or dawn when insects are least active and most likely to be in the nest. Maintain the full 22-foot standoff distance when possible and avoid spraying into wind. Store the aerosol away from heat sources and open flame, as contents are pressurized.
