Pulp & Paper Processing


Water is a key component in paper and pulp mills - and where there is water, there is an opportunity for a midge fly infestation. The Strike® product lineup of solutions for midge and filter fly control offers facility maintenance managers, licensed water operators and quality assurance managers convenient, cost-effective formulations.

When these pests enter paper and pulp facilities, they can cause serious quality control issues. Midge flies in a paper plant have been found to contaminate paper rolls and other items manufactured within the mill.

Incorporating Strike® products into the mill water systems will keep midge populations under control and reduce the cost of disposing contaminated or tainted paper and the required maintenance. Reducing midge fly populations in the facility and the paper production process is a key factor in paper quality assurance.
