Bayer Complete Discontinued

[Coastie Reefer]

From all the write-ups I've seen on dipping corals in Bayer, everyone has used Bayer Advanced Complete Insect Killer. Well I've checked online and this has been discontinued. Has anyone used anything else? I'm going to see if I can find some Bayer Complete locally, but if I can't other options would be greatly appreciated.

Really? Where did you read that? It seems to be for sale online everywhere still and it is on Bayer's website.

Home Depot website... unless it means HD discontinued it from their inventory...

 

[TheEngineer]

Hmmm... I see that on the HD website too. Lowe's shows it in stock and available to ship.

I actually couldn't find it at my local Lowes or Home Depot last week. I just assumed it was seasonal and I ordered it online. Not too many people are spraying their lawns in Maryland in November.

I see it on Amazon, so I might just have to order some ASAP.

many of us in the UK use Dettol to dip our corals/frgs. Just 3 or 4 drops in a liter and give it a swirl, leave it for 3 or 54 minutes and swish the coral round it it before rinsing the coral/frag in the water it came in for both the treatment and the rinse.

I'll try to research that. Looks like it's available here in the US at WalMart.

Edit: You can order it from WalMart, but it's not sold in stores...

I dip every coral and frag in it and never lost a single one due to using it in common with others here in the UK. Strangely enough it smells just like Coral RX.

Coral Rx smells just like Pine Sol household cleaner lol, not sure if you have that in the UK.

I think they are on metric time in the UK! It must be in the conversion.

sorry 3 or 4 minutes as it matters not which really

Don't think so, we have Pine disinfectant which is thicker than Dettol so I wouldn't use that to be on the safe side

Yep a slip of the didgit

I don't know about for coral pests, but Bayer Complete is awesome at killing fire ants.

 

[Sabellafella]
