Mode of action:. Abamectin attacks the nerve system of insects and mites, causing paralysis within hours. The paralysis can not be reversed. Abamectin is active once eaten (stomach poison) although there is some contact activity. Maximum mortality occurs in 3-4 days.
Application:. Controls mites, leafminers, pear psylla, cockroaches, and ants. For optimum control, apply abamectin when the leaves are young to allow better absorption into leaf tissue. This will extend the residual control period. As leaves age and harden off they lose the ability to take up abamectin and
residual control is greatly reduced.
Note: the specific crop-pest combination must be on the label.
