LWP Complete Pesticide Test Kit
75 vials, in a sturdy white cardboard box with a foam inlay of cells for the vials
Vial size: 10 x 50mm

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This kit started out many years ago with 25 vials and progressed to 3 kits totalling 75 vials as more pesticide vials were added over the years. The 3 kits have now been combined into one kit of 75 vials (and discounted). If you purchased any of the separate kits in the past and wish to be updated let us know.
