BioCeres® WP

This Versatile Biopesticide Can Be Used In A Tank Mix Or As A Stand-Alone.

TARGET: Aphids (Aphidoidea), whiteflies (Aleyrodoidea), thrips (Thysanoptera), plant bugs (Lygus lineolaris), spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii), borers, beetles and weevils. DESCRIPTION: This OMRI Listed biopesticide uses the power of Beauveria bassiana to control insects in developing and adult stages. Upon application, the spores will adhere to and begin penetrating the insect’s outer shell. Once inside the insect, the spores will continue to multiple until they reach its hemolyph (blood). When the spores encounter the blood they will begin feeding on it. Death will occur in 7 to 14 days. 0 pre-harvest interval and 4-hour REI. SUGGESTED USE: Repeat at 5-7 day intervals as needed. Apply 1-3 lbs. per acre, according to the density of the insect population. For conventional air and ground applications, use at least 50 gallons of spray volume per acre. Thoroughly cover plant foliage with spray solution, but not to runoff. 1332890 BioCeres WP - 1 lb. Bag $80.00 1332892 BioCeres WP - Case of 1 lb. Bags/12 ct. $880.00

Mycotrol® WPO

A New Formulation For A Reliable Favorite!

TARGET: Adult and immature stages of whiteflies, thrips, aphids, psyllids, weevils, mealybugs, leafhoppers/plant hoppers, scarab beetles and plant bugs (Heteroptera) and more. DESCRIPTION: Mycotrol WPO is a wettable powder mycoinsecticide that contains live spores of the naturally occurring fungus, Beauveria bassiana. In fact, this formulation contains the highest concentration of any insecticide containing Beauveria. These spores adhere to the host insect and use enzymes to attack and ultimately dissolve the cuticle that surrounds and contains the body cavity. This fungal penetration will ultimately kill the unwanted insects but will not harm beneficials. SUGGESTED USE: For use in greenhouses, nurseries, landscape and interiorscape settings. Mycotrol WPO can be used for a wide range of vegetables, fruits and berries, herbs and spices, ornamentals, ground covers, trees and turf.

Beauveria bassiana

Beauveria bassiana is an entomopathogenic fungi that causes white muscadine disease in a range of insects including whiteflies, aphids, thrips, grasshoppers and certain types of beetles. B. bassiana spores simply need to come in contact with a host. Once the host insect is infected, the fungus rapidly grows inside of the insect, feeding on the nutrients present in the host’s body and producing toxins in the process. When the host dies, the B. bassiana covers the carcass in a layer of white mold that produces more infective spores.
