			<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span data-teams="true">Maxforce Quantum: Envu’s 2025 Minor Use Changes Explained</span></h1>
<h2 class="p2" style="text-align: center;"><b><strong>Maxforce Quantum – Outdoor Use Removed &amp; Alternative Solutions</strong></b></h2>
<p class="p2" style="text-align: center;">Envu, a leader in pest control innovation, announces an important update regarding the use of its flagship product, Maxforce Quantum. Maxforce Quantum is no longer approved for external use in pest control applications. The changes come into place on new products in 2025. Existing Maxforce Quantum cartridges can still be used as per product label instructions. To comply with these changes we ask users to check the product label instructions before use.</p>
<p class="p2" style="text-align: center;">Maxforce Quantum has been a trusted solution in the pest control industry, recognised for its effectiveness against a wide range of ant species. To comply with updated guidelines, its use will now be restricted to indoor applications only. This adjustment ensures the product remains in compliance with current environmental regulations, while continuing to deliver superior results for professional pest managers.</p>
<h2 class="p2" style="text-align: center;"><b>Commitment to excellence and sustainability</b><b></b></h2>
<p class="p2" style="text-align: center;">Envu remains dedicated to providing innovative and effective solutions to pest control challenges while prioritising environmental sustainability. The updated usage guidelines for Maxforce Quantum reflects this commitment by ensuring our products are used responsibly and in harmony with best practices<br />
for environmental stewardship. Our technical support team is also available to answer any questions and provide assistance in implementing<br />
these changes effectively.</p>
<h2 class="p2" style="text-align: center;"><strong>Alternative products for outside use</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Commenting on the acquisition, Rupert Broome, Killgerm Group Managing Director, said:</strong></p>
<p><em>“Our Killgerm and PestWest operations have had a longstanding relationship with Sprayclear which has been built over the past 3 decades.

<p><em>We see many opportunities for growth in the Republic of Ireland, and acquiring a physical presence in this important market will also complement and strengthen the existing footprint for Killgerm Division, alongside existing operations in Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK.”</em></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Monheim, February 24, 2021</strong> – Bayer today announced a series of decisions to accelerate the strategy implementation of its Crop Science division. In order to focus on its core agricultural business, this includes the intent to divest the company’s Environmental Science Professional business. It is a global leader offering environmental solutions to control pests, disease and weeds in non-agricultural areas such as vector control, professional pest management, industrial vegetation management, forestry, and turf and ornamentals. The Environmental Science Professional business had sales of approx. 600 million Euros in 2019.</p>
<p>To further drive performance and growth in the division’s most important commercial region, Bayer has named Dr. Jacqueline M. Applegate to lead the Crop Science North America region effective March 1, 2021. She currently heads the division’s Environmental Science and Vegetable Seeds businesses and has a strong track record of commercial execution and of driving transformation. In addition to her appointment, the company named Dr. Jeremy Williams, currently Global Head of Plant Biotechnology at Crop Science, as new head of the Climate Corporation and Digital Farming, and Tom Armitage from Mondelez as head of Global Communications for Crop Science. Both are effective March 15, 2021. All three leaders will join the Crop Science Executive Leadership Team and will play key roles in accelerating the division’s transformation.</p>
<p>In addition, Bayer appointed Gilles Galliou, currently head of commercial operations for Bayer Vegetable Seeds Americas, to lead the Environmental Science business and the planned divestment. The global Environmental Science business will be headquartered in Cary, North Carolina, effective June 1, 2021. Inci Dannenberg, currently head of global strategic marketing for Vegetable Seeds, was also appointed to run the Crop Science global Vegetable Seeds business, which is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri. Both appointments are effective from March 1, 2021.</p>
<p>“With the announced portfolio and leadership changes, and important new product approvals for soybeans, corn and cotton in the Americas, we are now shifting gears from integration to growth acceleration. We are laser-focused on commercial execution and on transforming agriculture through innovation that benefits farmers, consumers and our planet,” said Liam Condon, Member of the Board of Management of Bayer AG and President of the Crop Science division. “Like farmers everywhere, we have faced challenges in the past few years; however, I am very excited about the outlook for our Crop Science business. The global coronavirus pandemic has made it clear how important agriculture and a sustainable food system are, and the crucial role science can play in solving difficult problems. Driving innovation, accelerating the digital transformation of agriculture and helping decarbonize the food system are at the core of our vision to feed a growing population without starving the planet.”</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>flyDetect<sup>®</sup> from PestWest<sup>®</sup> was announced as joint winner of the Best New Product Award at The Society of Food Hygiene and Technology Virtual Awards Ceremony which took place on Friday 4<sup>th</sup> December 2020.</p>
<p>The SOFHT Awards recognises and celebrates excellence within the food industry and its associated industries and PestWest<sup>®</sup> are incredibly honoured to have won an award in the Best New Product category. This broad category covers any aspect of food, service or equipment, and flyDetect<sup>®</sup> was up against some stiff competition! The Awards were judged by a panel of experienced food industry professionals from the Society’s membership.</p>
<p>Fred Hurstel, PestWest<sup>®</sup> Business Director, commented “We are so pleased that flyDetect<sup>®</sup> has been recognised as a Best New Product by food industry experts. It has been years in the making and is the first of its kind in the pest control industry. Flying insects contaminating products remains a significant issue for many food companies and early identification of potential flying insect problems is a huge benefit in areas such as food production, where zero tolerance of insects is required.”</p>
<p>He continued, “During the current pandemic, it is especially important that food manufacturers have the peace of mind that insect detection is being taken care of whilst keeping their staff safe, and flyDetect<sup>®</sup> allows them to do this via remote monitoring.”</p>
<p>flyDetect<sup>®</sup> is the industry leader in online flying insect monitoring. The 24/7 remote monitoring system has a built-in high-resolution camera which captures the entire sticky board. flyDetect<sup>®</sup> is designed to send immediate notifications of emerging infestations. The capture thresholds can be tailored to the sensitivity of the situation in which flyDetect<sup>®</sup> is being used, making it ideal for all areas of food production.</p>
<p>Visit <a href="https://www.pestwest.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>here</strong></a> to learn more about flyDetect<sup>®</sup> and how it can be used in the food industry.</p>
