Forbid 4F Miticide is another product for the control of mites and whiteflies. Forbid offers control of mites and whiteflies in all stages with fast knockdown and up to 30 days of residual control. The active ingredient, spiromesifen, is a lipid biosynthesis inhibitor that prevents the insects from maintaining a water balance necessary to sustain life. A tertramic acid, the acid ingredient blocks fat synthesis which causes the target pests to dry out and die. This mode of actions mean that Forbid has a lower potential for resistance development.

When Forbid 4F Miticide is applied to the host plant, it offers a translaminar activity, allowing it to penetrate the leaf and enter the vascular system, making the active ingredient available at the bottom of the leaf where whiteflies and mites primarily feed.

Talus 70DF is the only IGR labeled for control of Whitefly, Mealybug, Scale, and Grassy-winged Sharpshooter that has Chitin Synthesis Inhibition as its mode of action. Talus disrupts molting by blocking the formation of chitin, the building block of insect exoskeleton. The exoskeleton, the insect’s skin and bones, must be absorbed and then re-formed during each successive molt. Without the ability to synthesize chitin, molting is incomplete, resulting in malformed pests that soon die. Talus delivers toxicity to pests via contact, ingestion and vapor activity. There is little or no systemic movement of Talus in plants. But its vapor activity allows Talus to reach leaf undersides where many pest species dwell, and it helps protect new growth. In addition to its primary mode of action, Talus also suppresses egg-laying and causes egg sterility in treated adults through secondary hormonal activity. Talus has also shown to be fully compatible to a broad variety of beneficial insects making it ideal for IPM programs.
