Description

Clofentezine CAS NO 74115-24-5 is a highly effective, specific acaricide belonging to the tetrazine chemical class. It matters as a critical tool for integrated pest management (IPM) programs, offering long-lasting control of phytophagous mites, including eggs and active stages. This product is essential for agricultural producers, formulators, and agrochemical companies seeking reliable and potent miticides to protect high-value crops such as fruits, vines, and ornamentals from devastating mite infestations.

Application

• Primary use as a contact ovicide and miticide in agricultural pest control programs.
• Formulation into various end-use products like suspension concentrates (SC) and wettable powders (WP) for foliar application.
• Protection of pome fruits (e.g., apples, pears) and stone fruits against spider mites (Tetranychus spp.) and rust mites.
• Control of mites in vineyards to safeguard grape yield and quality.
• Use in ornamental plant and nursery production to maintain plant health.
• Component in resistance management strategies, often rotated with miticides of different modes of action.
