It is trusted by both commercial farms and individual households across Kenya.

How to Use Kerol 1L

Kerol is a concentrated liquid that must be diluted before use. Follow the proper instructions for safe and effective application:

• • Apply to cracks, crevices, and corners where insects hide
• • Repeat every 7–14 days as needed

Disinfection & Deodorizing:

• • Mix 25–50ml per litre of water depending on the level of contamination
• • Mop floors or pour into drains, bathrooms, latrines, or smelly areas
• • For tough odors, use a higher concentration

Livestock Contact Surfaces:

• • Apply when animals are not present and allow the area to dry before reentry
• • Ensure good ventilation after spraying in enclosed spaces

Precautions and Safety

• • Do not apply directly on animals or humans
• • Avoid inhaling the fumes – use in well-ventilated areas

• • Keep out of reach of children and pets when undiluted
