Hydroprene is an insect growth regulator used as an insecticide. It is used against cockroaches, beetles, and moths.[1] Products using hydroprene include Gencor, Gentrol, and Raid Max Sterilizer Discs.[1] Hydropene is a synthetic juvenile hormone mimic, disrupting insect larval development like molting.[2]
