Overview
Suffoil-X Bio-Pesticide
This insecticide’s mode of action is through suffocation of eggs, larvae and nymphs of insects and mites and adults of soft-bodied insects. This mode of action necessitates total spray coverage. As a fungicide this product interferes with the attachment of the pathogen to the host and acts as a suffocant. Use enough spray solution to completely penetrate the leaf canopy and cover both top and bottom of all of the leaves until wet without significant runoff. Most mature trees will require 20 to 500 gallons of spray solution per acre although citrus trees may require 15 to 1000 gallons of spray solution per acre. Row crops generally require 20 to 100 gallons of spray solution per acre. Greenhouse Use – Apply at the rates of 20 to 100 gallons of spray solution per acre for control of the greenhouse pest. (Be sure to check with your equipment and local recommendations.)
This product may be used to control mite and insect pests in the egg stage, including: spider mites, eriophyid mites, armored scale, soft scale, mealybugs, psyllids, whiteflies, aphids, leafrollers, leaftiers, webworms, cankerworms, plant bugs, leafhoppers and adelgids. This product will kill other immature insect forms if the spray covers the insect. See APPLICATION RATES tables for species claimed to be controlled on specific types of plants.
