IBENA Vector protection: Our pest control program
And this is how IBENA vector protection works:
IBENA succeeded in applying long-lasting one-side impregnation of fabrics of 100% Nomex® Comfort with the active substance Permethrin. Permethrin as fatal toxicant for (only) insects will kill the potential bloodsuckers within minutes.
