How Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide Works
Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide contains 2 percent abamectin, a common nerve poison that's used in various insecticides for professional use. It impacts an insect's nervous system but does not kill the pest immediately. Instead, the active ingredient causes gradual paralysis and gives the pest time to transmit the poison back to the colony. Afterward, the pest infects other members before dying. Abamectin works by contact and ingestion and is less harmful to the environment, having a class IV rating on the General Use Pesticide scale.
