BUYER BEWARE - certain other products claim to be half price "F10" when they are not that at all. Check all facts, particularly manufacturer's recommended dilution rates (you'll use a lot more) and contact times (far longer than F10), and you'll find there is a vast difference in performance, and the "half price" actually works out to be way more expensive than F10.
