Permethrin is a synthetic neurotoxin that belongs to the pyrethroid family, used in pest control. In the case of woodworm treatment, such as Lignum I62.5, it works by disrupting the nervous system of the larvae of wood-boring beetles when they ingest treated wood. The affected larvae eventually die, halting the infestation cycle. This formulation of Permethrin (62.5g/L) is designed to be potent against woodworms yet safe for application on timber, when used as directed.
The active ingredient in the formulation is sourced from and supplied by manufacturers who have supported the compound through the Biocidal Products Directive [98/8 EC] or more recently the Biocidal Products Regulations [528/2012] and in compliance with Article 95 of the Biocidal Products Regulation.
Lignum Pro I62.5 Insecticide is being supported under the European Biocidal Products Regulation [528/2012]. Efficacy of this product has been proven to industry established and European standards.
Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment requires careful handling to ensure a safe and effective application.
Always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as gloves, eye protection, and respiratory masks during use, as contact with the skin or inhalation of the product can pose health risks. It is recommended to consult the product label and material safety data sheet (MSDS) for comprehensive safety guidelines.
Maintain good ventilation in the workspace throughout application and drying. Ensure that unprotected individuals and animals are kept away from the treatment area for at least 48 hours or until the surface is fully dry.
Proper hygiene, including washing hands and cleaning exposed skin after handling, is essential for safe use.
Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment is suitable for a variety of softwood and hardwood surfaces, making it effective for use on interior and exterior timbers in both residential and commercial environments.
This treatment is ideal for structural wood elements susceptible to woodworm infestations, such as beams, joists, and floorboards, and can also be used for decorative wooden items and furniture.
However, prior to large-scale application, testing on a small, inconspicuous area is recommended to ensure the wood absorbs the treatment as expected and achieves the desired results without altering its appearance.
Proper surface preparation is essential to achieve maximum penetration and effectiveness of Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment.
Ensure that the timber is clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, and other contaminants that could hinder absorption. For best results, remove any previous coatings, paint, or varnish, as these can prevent the treatment from penetrating the wood fibres.
Cleaning the surface may involve brushing or vacuuming to remove any particles, and if necessary, stripping away previous finishes.
Preparing the wood thoroughly allows the treatment to work deep within the wood, enhancing its protective properties against wood-boring insects.
Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment is designed for a single-coat application to deliver effective coverage and long-lasting protection.
Apply the product using a brush or low-pressure spray, ensuring even and thorough coverage across the timber surface. For preventive treatment, apply at a rate of 200ml per m², which enables 1 litre of diluted solution to cover around 5m².
For curative treatment, apply at a higher rate of 300ml per m², with 1 litre covering approximately 3.3m².
These application rates ensure that the active ingredients penetrate the timber effectively, providing strong protection against current infestations and preventing future occurrences.
When applied as directed, Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment offers extensive coverage, making it highly economical.
A 1 litre concentrate, once diluted, can treat between 82.5m² and 125m² of timber, depending on whether it is used for preventive or curative purposes.
Accurate adherence to coverage rates ensures that the product delivers its full protective potential, with thorough application for both light and heavy treatments.
Under favourable conditions, Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment becomes touch dry within approximately one hour, although this drying time can vary based on factors like wood type, environmental conditions, and humidity.
It is critical to allow the timber sufficient drying time before use, and avoid contact with the treated area until it is fully cured.
Ensure good ventilation to facilitate faster drying, and refrain from allowing unprotected persons or animals to come into contact with treated wood for at least 48 hours to ensure complete safety.
Once dry, Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment leaves no visible finish, maintaining the natural appearance of the wood.
The treated surface will remain unchanged, similar to the effect of applying water or solvent. This feature allows for decorative finishes to be applied without any interference from the treatment. If desired, paints, stains, or varnishes can be applied to the treated wood once fully dry, seamlessly integrating the treatment into any design or restoration project.
However, it is recommended to test a small area first to confirm that the finish meets expectations.
After application, thoroughly clean all tools and equipment used for applying Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment. Brushes and spray equipment should be cleaned immediately with appropriate solvents to prevent residue build-up and ensure the equipment remains in good working condition for future use.
Properly dispose of any residual product, disposable materials, and cleaning agents in accordance with local waste disposal regulations to ensure environmental compliance and safety.
Lignum Pro I62.5 Woodworm Treatment is stable for up to two years when stored in its original packaging under ambient conditions.
