Applied Science Labs

The Future of Pest Control

They Poison,
We Engineer.

While the pest control industry recycles 40-year-old chemistry, Applied Science Labs is engineering the next generation of bioactive compounds from scratch — AI-designed, mechanically-driven, and built to outperform every neurotoxin on the market.

Mode of Action
  • Contact desiccation + suffocation mechanism
  • Plant-based lipid system disrupts insect cuticle
  • Breaks down waxy outer layer causing moisture loss and dehydration
  • Residual barrier film for ongoing exposure
  • Non-neurotoxic kill pathway
Technical Abstract

VA88 exploits the critical weakness in the arthropod exoskeleton: the epicuticular lipid layer. Soybean-oil-derived surfactants solubilize this wax barrier on contact, initiating transepidermal water loss at rates incompatible with insect survival. Secondary botanical compounds block spiracle function, compounding respiratory stress with cuticular failure.

Applied Science Labs is the only company building an entire pest control compound platform on a mechanical kill pathway. No pyrethroids. No organophosphates. No neonicotinoids. Our bioactive matrix — soybean oil primary desiccant with botanical essential oil synergists — achieves what 70 years of neurotoxic chemistry could not: elimination without resistance, contamination, or environmental tradeoffs. This is not incremental. This is the new standard.

The First AI Lab
in Pest Control

Applied Science Labs is the first and only pest control company running AI across the entire R&D pipeline — from molecular modeling to deployment optimization. While the rest of the industry is still reformulating the same chemistry from the 1980s, we are computationally discovering compounds that don't exist yet and bringing them to market in weeks, not years.

They poison.
We engineer.
That's the difference.

For 70 years, the pest control industry has relied on a single approach: poison the nervous system. The result? Resistance, environmental contamination, and a regulatory landscape that grows more restrictive every year. Applied Science saw this dead end coming and built something fundamentally different.

Our mechanical kill pathway — lipid layer dissolution, spiracular occlusion, transepidermal water loss — achieves what neurotoxins cannot: consistent elimination without resistance buildup. Combined with AI-accelerated compound discovery, Applied Science Labs is not just an alternative to legacy chemistry. We are its replacement.

Core AI Capabilities
01

Predictive Compound Modeling

Industry-first machine learning models trained on proprietary molecular interaction datasets. We predict efficacy across target pest genomes before a single physical test — a capability no other pest control company has built.

02

Molecular Optimization Engine

Our proprietary AI engine optimizes lipid-botanical ratios at computational speed, finding molecular configurations that maximize cuticle penetration while maintaining 25(b) exempt status. Thousands of candidates screened in hours.

03

Resistance Pattern Detection

Applied Science Labs is building the pest control industry's first resistance early-warning system. Real-time field data analysis identifies emerging mutations and triggers proactive formulation updates before resistance establishes.

04

Formulation Version Control

Every batch is tracked, versioned, and traceable from raw input to deployment. Applied Science Labs maintains the most rigorous provenance and QC infrastructure in pest control — full transparency, every molecule accounted for.

05

Deployment Intelligence

Proprietary geospatial models map vector population dynamics to optimize treatment scheduling, concentration, and coverage. The result: higher efficacy per gallon deployed than any competing protocol.

06
