Agrochemical Insecticide Abamectin 95%TC
is a mixture of avermectins containing about 80% avermectin B1a and 20% avermectin B1b. These two components, B1a and B1b, have very similar biological and toxicological properties. The avermectins are insecticidal/miticidal compounds derived from the soil bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis. Abamectin is a natural fermentation product of this bacterium. It acts as an insecticide by affecting the nervous system of and paralyzing insects. Abamectin is used to control insect and mite pests of citrus, pear, and nut tree crops, and it is used by homeowners for control of fire ants.

Mode of Action |
l 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 Timing |
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. |
Application Tips |
l Add horticultural oil or nonionic surfactant to tank to improve foliage wetting and enhance penetration in leaves. l Ensure thorough coverage. l Do not apply when bees are actively foraging. |
