In what form is a pellet typically prepared?

A pellet is typically prepared in a uniformly sized solid form. This physical form is important because it allows for precise application and consistent release of the active ingredient, especially in aquatic environments. Uniformly sized pellets ensure that they behave consistently when introduced into water, minimizing the risk of uneven distribution and potential harm to non-target organisms.

Additionally, when pellets are made, they are designed to sink to the desired depth in the water body, allowing for effective treatment where it is most needed. The solid form is also durable, allowing it to remain intact until the active ingredients are released under specific conditions. This makes it a preferred delivery method in many aquatic pesticide applications, as it can facilitate targeted management of invasive species or unwanted vegetation in aquatic systems.
