Pest control operators know — a floor drain is a breeding ground for Fruit fly i PsychodaClassic treatments with bio-enzymes or chemicals last 7–14 days, so the cycle returns. Green Drain™ is an IPM solution — a mechanical barrier that breaks the breeding cycle, with no repeats, no chemicals.
Bio-enzymes, organophosphates, pyrethroids — all drain treatments have the same problem: the effect lasts only until the chemicals evaporate or break down. Then the biofilm returns, the flies come back, and the client calls.
EU Regulation 528/2012 (BPR – Biocidal Products Regulation) imposes strict restrictions on biocides. Pressure to reduce pesticide use is growing. Type A clients (HoReCa, food) are seeking an IPM approach with mechanical barriers as the first layer of protection.

You offer Green Drain™ to clients as a Tier 1 IPM option — you install it.
A professional pest control operator carries stock of the common sizes so the solution can be fitted on site during a call-out. HoReCa clients, hotel portfolios, and private residences dominate — each has a different profile. Industrial clients are rare but involve larger sums.
Green Drain™ doesn't work alone — for maximum drain control it's combined with GD Uri-Tabs™ (urinals) and GreenSwirl™ (drain unblocking).
Patented silicone seal as an IPM Tier 1 mechanical solution. It seals off the drain route to fruit flies, cockroaches, and ants — without biocides.
Bio-enzymatic urinal tablets — a complementary measure in public washrooms that removes the insects' food source.
Biological cleaning of biofilm in traps — it strips out the breeding ground for drain flies. A Tier 2 IPM measure.
We come to the site, map the drains, and provide a written recommendation — no cost, no obligation.
