How does it work against parasites?
When Varan enters the body of an insect, it blocks the transmission of nerve impulses, which causes paralysis and then its death. This can occur when the aerosol hits the insect directly, as well as after treating surfaces in its suspected habitat.
In the latter case, as a result of moving around the house, particles of a toxic substance remain on the legs and whiskers of pests. Subsequently, the poison enters the insect’s body, which leads to death.
The first result after disinfection can be seen after 15 minutes, and the maximum after 8 hours. The protective effect remains on treated surfaces for 2 weeks in the absence of wet cleaning.
The effect of dichlorvos on people and animals
Dichlorvos Varan, despite the low toxicity of the product, has a detrimental effect upon direct contact with a living organism. Therefore, during work on treating a room from bedbugs, it is important to free it from animals, fish, terrariums and other living creatures. This rule also applies to people.
Important! According to reviews, the remedy for bedbugs Varan really helps, but it should not come into contact with the mucous membranes and skin. If this happens, the contact area should be washed with running water.

Positive and negative properties
Positive properties of the drug:
- It is convenient to use because the substance is sold in sealed bottles that are equipped with a sprayer. Some types of the drug have small thin tubes, adapters, they are necessary in order to spray dichlorvos into hard-to-reach places.
- Availability - dichlorvos for bedbugs can be bought in household chemical stores, at a price that any buyer can afford.
- The harm to the body is minimal. Now dichlorvos does not have such a pungent odor. Its composition allows for minimal toxicity for humans. You don’t even always have to leave the room while treating it with this product.
Negative properties of dichlorvos:
- Difficulty in processing. Since the composition has low saturation, the result will be good if it is applied directly to places where insects accumulate. And getting to distant corners, for example, sofas, beds, is difficult. Therefore, in this case you need a tube adapter.
- The activity is short-lived, because after ventilation the effect of dichlorvos ends. The entire composition of this substance, even if absorbed into a soft surface, also erodes.
- Toxicity, although small, is still present. Therefore, this remedy cannot be called completely harmless. Some of it enters the human body, so it is better to leave the room after treatment and then ventilate well.
But despite all the contraindications, dichlorvos Varan remains the most effective remedy against house bugs and other insects. And it still enjoys popularity.
How safe is Varan STOP?
The product does not pose a risk to people if safety precautions are followed. After completing the treatment, be sure to ventilate the room for at least 30 minutes. Be careful, the cylinder is under pressure. Do not smoke during treatment, use the product near sources of open fire, very hot objects, or keep in direct sunlight. During disinsection there should be no people, small animals or birds in the room. Aquariums and food must be tightly covered.
In case of contact with skin or eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water. When finished, wash exposed skin with soap and water. When using more than one cylinder per day, it is necessary to use protective equipment, a mask or a respirator.
The effectiveness of Dichlorvos against cockroaches
The effectiveness of this product has been proven by many years of experience in its use. Due to the various variations in the routes of entry of Dichlorvos into the body of insects (through breathing, chitinous cover, oral cavity and stomach), the drug becomes truly fatal for them.
However, everyone knows about the unique ability of cockroaches to develop a kind of immunity to insecticides. Fortunately, manufacturers of modern chemicals have found a way out - they put several similarly active components into the product at once.
Thanks to this, you can safely poison insects without fear of their return. Not a single pest can withstand all pyrethroids, because they have a radically different composition and mechanism of action on the body of cockroaches.
In addition to all of the above, it is worth noting a fairly quick effect. If you follow all the rules for using Dichlorvos, it begins to act immediately and within a couple of hours most of the pest population dies. And due to the drug’s ability to have a prolonged action, none of the remaining cockroaches have a chance to survive, which also indicates its high effectiveness.
Do insecticides kill insect eggs?
The oothecae of cockroaches are less vulnerable than adults. They are very resistant to chemicals - Dichlorvos will not take them. Therefore, if there is at least one masonry left in the apartment, it is worth either destroying it physically (using a narrow nozzle of a vacuum cleaner, exposure to hot steam or, conversely, frosty air), or after a short period of time, carry out disinfestation again.
What other parasites does the drug fight against?
“Dichlorvos” is a very universal remedy that helps get rid of not only cockroaches. It can be used if there are any unwanted insects in the home: bedbugs, midges, fleas, ants, ticks, mosquitoes, flies and other pests. However, when fighting another type of parasite, read the instructions carefully, since your actions in each individual case will be slightly different.
Precautions when using Dichlorvos
Work is carried out in protective equipment: respirator, glasses, gloves, headscarf, long sleeves. It is important to carry out processing indoors. If there is a draft, the concentration of active components will decrease, and at the same time the unpleasant odor will spread throughout the entire facility. Insecticides should not come into contact with food, personal items and hygiene items. Animals are taken out of the room. If you have an aquarium, you need to take it out or cover it with glass, after turning off the oxygen supply system.
