Which dry formulation is larger and heavier than dust formulations with low drift characteristics?

Granules are indeed larger and heavier than dust formulations, which allows them to have low drift characteristics. The size and weight of granules mean that they are less likely to be carried away by the wind compared to lighter, finer formulations like dust. This quality makes granules particularly effective for applications in environments where drift could be an issue, such as near water bodies or residential areas.

Granules consist of larger particle sizes, which aids in adhering to surfaces and ensures that they reach the intended target without being easily displaced by air currents. Additionally, their heavier nature allows them to settle in areas where pests are likely to be present, enhancing the effectiveness of pest control measures.

In contrast, other formulations such as baits, pellets, and microencapsulated products have different properties that may not align with the criteria of being larger, heavier, and designed to minimize drift. Baits often attract pests and may be in smaller formulations to entice consumption, pellets may vary in size but are generally not characterized by a low drift feature, and microencapsulated products are typically designed for controlled release rather than size and weight considerations.
