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.
Where to Use Floramite SC Miticide Insecticide
Floramite SC Miticide Insecticide works on all ornamental plants, including flowerbeds, foliage plants and bulb crops. It knocks mites off perennials and shrubs and protects nonbearing fruit trees and greenhouse-grown tomatoes. In the following areas, Floramite SC Insecticide provides control of mites on plants that grow in the ground or in containers:
- Plant nurseries

Floramite SC Miticide Insecticide Target Pests
Although Floramite Miticide Insecticide controls many invasive mite species, it does not control rust, broad and flat mites. Therefore, you'll need to combine it with another miticide to combat those specific mites in greenhouses and landscapes. Floramite acts on the mobile stages and also has some ovicidal activity. Some of the more common mite species that Floramite controls include:
- Bamboo mites
- Citrus and clover mites
- European red mites
- Pacific mites
- Southern red mites
- Strawberry mites
- Two-spotted spider mites
