How to use spirodiclofen insecticide

What is spirodiclofen insecticide?

Spirodiclofen is a new selective, non systemic acaricide belonging to the chemical group of the spirocyclic tetronic acid derivatives.Cas148477-71-8Spirodiclofen is an acaricide and insecticide it acts by interfering with mite development, thereby controlling such pests as Panonychus spp., Phyllocoptruta spp. Spirodiclofen is active by contact to mite eggs, all nymphal stages, and adult females (adult males are not effected). Spirodiclofen is structurally similar to spiromesifen, which is also a tetronic acid insecticide. Spirodiclofen is registered worldwide for use on a variety of crops including citrus, pome fruits, stone fruits, grapes and ornamentals.

Spirodiclofen is an acaricide and insecticide used in agriculture to control mites and San Jose scale.It is used on citrus, grapes, pome fruit, stone fruit, and tree nut crops.

Spirodiclofen belongs to the tetronic acid class and acts by inhibiting lipid biosynthesis.

Spirodiclofen is an insecticide widely used to control various pests. The use of spirodiclofen is prevalent in agricultural and horticultural applications to safeguard crops from pest damage. It is also employed in household settings to control insect pests.spirodiclofen belongs to the cyclanilide class of insecticides, which are synthetic derivatives of the naturally occurring insecticide spinosad. It disrupts the insect′s nervous system, leading to paralysis and demise. Its effectiveness is particularly notable against soft-bodied insects such as aphids and mites.

What is the use of Spirodiclofen insecticide?

Spirodiclofen is an insecticide/acaricide belonging to the chemical class of ketoenols or tetronic acids and acts as inhibitor of lipid biosynthesis, mainly against mites. It has registered uses in many countries on fruits, fruiting vegetables, tree nuts, coffee and hops.

Spirodiclofen can be used to control the eggs, larvae and nymphs of spider mites. Combining with abamectin to control adults can greatly improve the insecticidal effect and lasting period;

 It has a wide insecticidal spectrum, which can not only control spider mites, but also has good effects on pests such as psyllids, Lepidosaphes ulmi and leafhoppers;

 It has no cross-resistance and can be used with most pesticides (except strong alkaline pesticides and copper preparations). When used together with acaricides with different action mechanisms, it can not only improve the quick-acting property of spirodiclofen, but also benefit the resistance management of mites.

Spirodiclofen insecticide features

1.Spirodiclofen insecticide  New structure and unique mechanism of action: the active ingredient of spirodiclofen is tetraketofen, and the mechanism of action is to inhibit the fat synthesis in harmful mites. It has no cross-resistance with existing acaricides and is suitable for controlling harmful mites that are resistant to existing acaricides.

2. Wide acaricidal spectrum and strong adaptability: acarids have good control effects on spider miteapepper and tomato. In addition, Mite Dangerous has a very good control effect on pests such as pear psyllid, elm oyster scale and leafhopper.

3. Kill both eggs and young: the effect of killing eggs is particularly excellent, and it also has a good contact killing effect on young nymphs. Although mite danger cannot kill female adult mites quickly, it has a good sterilization effect on female adult mites. 96% of the eggs laid by female adult mites could not hatch and died in the late embryonic stage after being exposed to the pesticide.

4. Long duration: spirodiclofen has a long duration. After spirodiclofen is applied to the leaves of crops, it is resistant to rain erosion, and the normal performance of the drug effect will not be affected by moderate rain after 2 hours of spraying.

5. Low toxicity, low residue, good safety. It is very safe to crops under different temperature conditions, safe to humans, animals and crops, and has low toxicity. Suitable for pollution-free production.

6. No mutual resistance: It can be mixed and used with most pesticides (except strong basic pesticides and copper preparations). Mixing with other acaricides with different action mechanisms can not only improve the quick effect of spirodiclofen, but also facilitate the control of mite resistance.

How to use spirodiclofen insecticide

1. Uniform Spraying

This product controls eggs, nymphs and adult females of harmful mites through contact killing, and has no systemic properties. The opposite sides and the surface of the fruit can maximize its medicinal effect.

2. Application Time

To prevent and control Panonychus citrus, it is recommended to apply it in the early stage of pest mite damage, so as to give full play to the characteristics of long duration of mite danger.

⑴ MEDICATION PLAN 1 IN SPRING

When the damage of spider mites reaches the control index, can control spider mite  for about 50 days.

⑵ MEDICATION PLAN 2 IN SPRING

For example,use spirodiclofen 1-2 times, and use about 34% for the first time. Ten days after May, spray once with 4000-5000 times of spirodiclofen suspension. It can control spider mites and yellow spiders for about 50 days.

⑶ MEDICATION IN AUTUMN

According to the damage of mites, 34% spirodiclofen  sprays again or mixed with other pesticides to control citrus pests.

Mainly used for the treatment of harmful mites, including rust mites, gall mites and spider mites. It also has a good control effect on whitefly and red spider.

Spirodiclofen is a tetronic acid acaricide fungicide used in controlling red mites.

Spirodiclofen is an organochlorine acaricide, a dichlorobenzene, an oxaspiro compound and a gamma-lactone. It derives from a 1,3-dichlorobenzene.

Mode of action Spirodiclofen is a progenitor of tetronic acid derivates (inhibitors of acetyl CoA carboxylase), characterized by an original (unique) mechanism of action which combines long-lasting protection with anthocorid safety for effective integrated pest management.

It interferes/inhibits the lipid biosynthesis of Mites, Mealybugs and Pear-psylla.

Advantage spirodiclofen insecticide

Long lasting effect, spirodiclofen is resistant to rain washing after being applied to crop leaves, and moderate rain will not affect the normal performance of the efficacy after 2 hours of spraying.It has a good killing effect on harmful mites' eggs, young mites and nymphs.

Why use the Spirodiclofen?

Spirodiclofen is an organochlorine acaricide, a dichlorobenzene, an oxaspiro compound and a gamma-lactone.It derives from a 1,3-dichlorobenzene.

Spirodiclofen is an insecticide/acaricide belonging to the chemical class of ketoenols or tetronic acids,and acts as an inhibitor of lipid biosynthesis, mainly against mites.It has registered uses in many countries on fruits, fruiting vegetables, tree nuts, coffee and hops.

Mites, mussel scale and pear sucker can be especially difficult to control in orchards and once established destroy fruit quality.

Mites are notoriously challenging to control and the choice of effective products is limited.

Spirodiclofen has a unique mode of action and shows safety to anthocorids –making it an essential component in pear sucker control programmes.
