How Floramite SC Miticide Insecticide Works

Bifenazate, the highly effective ingredient in Floramite Miticide Insecticide, has a mode of action that still remains unclear by researchers. Because this ingredient causes paralysis in mites, researchers suggest that it acts on the nervous system. However, other research indicates that bifenazate targets the mitochondria, which could explain its selective nature. Because it doesn't provide systemic activity, you'll have to cover the upper and lower surfaces of leaves and fruit for maximum control.

Floramite SC Miticide Insecticide Target Pests

Although Floramite Miticide Insecticide controls many invasive mite species, it does not control rust, broad and flat mites.
