Mode of action: MILBEKNOCK EC is a milbemectin-based insect-acaricide used in horticultural crops, controlling a broad spectrum of mites and other insects such as whitefly, aphids, lepidopterans, leafhoppers, leafhoppers, leafhoppers, leafhoppers, leafminers, thrips, etc.
It is produced on the basis of a natural substance obtained from the bacterium Streptomyces hygroscopicus subsp. Aureolacrimosus, being considered as a substance from a natural source.
It has a unique mode of action different from other conventional acaricides, thus it acts on the peripheral nervous system, resulting in mites and other insects that come into contact with the product dying without any movement or spasm.
Mites may remain on the leaves but become paralyzed, stop feeding and die. It is effective on all developmental stages eggs, larvae, nymphs and adults.
Suppressing reproduction in females contributes to a residual effect. The product is rapidly absorbed into the leaves where it remains for up to several weeks. Maximum mite control is achieved 7-14 days after application. It also has a translaminar action and is not influenced by temperatures at the time of application.
Break to harvest: vines (wine and table grapes) - 14 days; apple orchards - 14 days; cucumbers - 7 days;
