Basic Information

Product Name: Etoxazole

CAS.No:153233-91-1

Mechanism of Action: It inhibits chitin synthesis in mites, disrupting their molting process and leading to their death. It has significant effects on mite eggs, nymphs, and adults.

Registered Crops: Primarily used for fruit trees (such as apples, citrus fruits, and grapes), vegetables (such as tomatoes and cucumbers), and ornamental plants.

Toxicity Level: Low toxicity (relatively safe for mammals and the environment, but regulated use is still required).

Product Overview

Etoxazole is a highly effective, low-toxic, specific acaricide widely used in modern agriculture to control mite pests such as red spider mites and yellow spider mites. Its unique mechanism of action disrupts the mite life cycle, providing long-lasting protection. This product is not only highly effective but also has minimal impact on beneficial insects and natural enemies, aligning with green agriculture and integrated pest management (IPM) principles and making it a popular choice among growers.

Key Features

Highly Effective Mite Control: Effective against eggs, larvae, and adults of mites, rapidly reducing mite density in fields and minimizing crop damage.

Long-Lasting Effect: After a single application, the drug's effects last for weeks, reducing frequent application times and labor costs.

Environmentally Friendly: Highly safe for beneficial insects such as bees and ladybugs, helping to maintain the ecological balance of farmland.

Low Toxicity and Low Residue: Low residue levels at the recommended dose meet food safety standards and are suitable for export crop production.

Resistance Management: No cross-resistance with other acaricides, making it an ideal rotational agent to slow the development of resistance.
