Dominate Insect Infestations with the Phobi Range from Lodi UK

When it comes to insect control, speed, persistence, and adaptability are key. That’s exactly what the Phobi range from Lodi UK delivers. This robust family of insecticides has been designed to tackle a wide spectrum of crawling and flying insects in professional settings, whether you’re dealing with a sudden outbreak or maintaining a preventive schedule across commercial, agricultural, or domestic properties.

In this guide, we’ll break down each product in the Phobi range, highlight the pests they’re best suited to combat, and offer practical advice for application enabling pest professionals to deliver consistently exceptional results.

PHOBI FLASH DOSE (500ml)

Target Pests: Flies, moths, mosquitoes, wasps, ants, cockroaches, fleas
Application: ULV and thermal fogging or coarse spraying
Use Environments: Food premises, hospitals, hotels, agricultural buildings, domestic settings

Phobi Flash Dose is a natural pyrethrum-based insecticide boosted with PBO (piperonyl butoxide), delivering rapid knockdown and a short residual effect. This makes it ideal for use in sensitive environments where a quick hit is needed but long-term residues are undesirable.

For maximum impact, apply via ULV fogging to ensure fine droplets are suspended in the air, perfect for targeting flying insects. For crawling pests like cockroaches and ants, a coarse spray to cracks, crevices, and skirting boards provides direct contact for faster results.

⚠ Pro Tip: Use Flash Dose as a pre-treatment in food facilities or hospital settings where minimal downtime is required. Always vacate treated areas until vapours have settled and the area is safe for re-entry.

PHOBI CAPS (500ml)

Target Pests: Red mite, ants, fleas, cockroaches, silverfish, flies, mosquitoes, bedbugs, stored product pests
Application: Dilute and apply as a surface spray
Use Environments: Animal housing, domestic properties, commercial kitchens, food storage, warehouses

Phobi CAPS is a standout in the range due to its dual active formula:

• Cypermethrin (9.2%) for long-lasting residual power
• Prallethrin (0.46%) for lightning-fast knockdown

The microencapsulated formulation ensures extended efficacy, offering up to 12 weeks of control on non-porous surfaces. This makes it perfect for use in areas like poultry farms and livestock sheds, where pests such as red mite thrive and reinfestation is common.

For optimal results, thoroughly spray all surfaces, focusing on pest harbourage points; cracks, joints, bedding areas, and flooring edges.

⚠ Pro Tip: To combat red mite, spray after cleaning but before repopulating with birds. Ensure the product dries fully before animals return.

PHOBI DOSE + RTU (5L)

Target Pests: Cockroaches, ants, flies, mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, moths
Application: Spray directly onto surfaces
Use Environments: Residential properties, hotels, hospitality, care homes

This ready-to-use formulation combines Imiprothrin for fast action and Cyphenothrin for residual protection. What sets Phobi Dose+ apart is its ability to penetrate both soft and hard furnishings, making it ideal for treating bedbugs, fleas, and moths in textile-heavy environments like bedrooms and hotel suites.

To use Phobi Dose effectively:

• Spray along carpet edges & fabric seams, behind headboards, inside wardrobes, and under furniture for bedbugs and moths
• Target skirting boards and floor junctions for ants and cockroaches

It’s also an excellent option for reactive treatments, saving time by removing the need for dilution or specialist equipment.

⚠ Pro Tip: Vacuum heavily infested areas before spraying to lift eggs and allow deeper product penetration. Re-treat every 4–6 weeks during heavy activity.

PHOBI F&F+ ONE SHOT (300ml)

Target Pests: Flies, cockroaches, mosquitoes
Application: Full room treatment lock & leave aerosol
Use Environments: Warehouses, food production units, restaurants, commercial kitchens

This powerful F&F one-shot aerosol delivers a full-release fog treatment combining Imiprothrin, Cyphenothrin and natural pyrethrins. It’s scientifically proven to eliminate:

• 100% of flies in 3 minutes
• 100% of German cockroaches in 5 minutes

With a 375m³ coverage per canister, it’s ideal for large, enclosed spaces where insects can hide in hard-to-reach areas.

To use, seal the room, place the can in the centre, press to activate, and vacate immediately. Allow sufficient ventilation after use.

⚠ Pro Tip: Use as a knockdown pre-treatment before applying residual sprays like Phobi CAPS to maximise long-term control.

PHOBI SMOKE PRO 90C+ (100g)

Target Pests: Grain weevils, mites, sawtoothed grain beetles, warehouse moths
Application: Smoke generator for stored product pest control
Use Environments: Grain stores, flour mills, food processing areas

Phobi Smoke Pro 90C+ uses Cypermethrin (7%) to deliver a dry smoke that penetrates deep into storage areas, crevices and machinery where sprays and fogs can’t reach.

This product is ideal for empty grain stores, helping pest controllers comply with Red Tractor and other assurance schemes. Effective against a full spectrum of stored-product insects, it’s a vital tool during downtime between harvests.

For best results:

• Seal up windows and doors to contain smoke
• Use the correct number of smoke bombs based on room volume
• Leave undisturbed for several hours

⚠ Pro Tip: Combine with surface sprays like Phobi CAPS for full lifecycle control, especially if infestation is suspected in stored cereals or animal feed.
