Il s'agit d'un insecticide, le terme en question est accolé au nom du produit. Peut-être faut-il traduire par insecticide tout simplement ?

Merci de vos suggestions.

Shu-fly / shoo-fly?
Explanation:
je vois une société qui fabrique du matériel de pêche, shu-fly,
http://shu-fly.com/

et une autre société qui travaille dans les insecticides, shoo-fly (plus logique)
https://shoo-fly.com/about-our-fly-control-system/

So, which is which? And brand names anyway
