Mortein Fast Knockdown Multi Insect Killer

Mortein is one of Australia's most established household brands, originally founded in the 1870s by J. Hagemann. The brand became famous for its insecticidal powders and later its aerosol sprays, becoming a staple in homes across Australia, New Zealand, and eventually many global markets. Its identity is deeply tied to Australian household culture, particularly through iconic advertising mascots like Louie the Fly.

Today, Mortein is owned by Reckitt (formerly Reckitt Benckiser), a British multinational consumer goods giant. While the brand has global reach, the manufacturing for the Australasian market typically occurs within Australia to support local supply chains, though production facilities exist in other regions to serve international markets like India and Southeast Asia. The brand remains a leader in pest control technology, specializing in fast-acting knockdown formulas for a variety of flying and crawling insects.
