Description

Fluvalinate is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide and acaricide known for its potent activity against a broad spectrum of pests. This compound is valued for its effectiveness in integrated pest management programs, offering reliable control with a favorable safety profile when used as directed. It is a critical active ingredient for agricultural producers, animal health formulators, and professional pest management services seeking to protect crops, livestock, and stored products from damaging insect and mite infestations.

Application

• Agricultural Crop Protection: Control of mites, aphids, whiteflies, and other sucking insects on fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants.
• Animal Health (Veterinary Use): Key component in ectoparasiticide formulations for controlling ticks, lice, and mites on livestock, poultry, and companion animals.
• Public Health & Pest Control: Used in professional formulations for managing pests in stored grain, food handling facilities, and structural environments.
• Apiculture (Beehive Treatment): Specifically formulated for the control of Varroa destructor mites in managed honeybee colonies, a critical application for pollinator health.
• Non-Crop Uses: Protection of textiles, wood, and other materials from insect damage during storage and transport.
