Better Control at Lower Rates and Tank Mix Compatible 

Easily integrates with existing insecticide programs to reduce population, increase effectiveness, and manage resistance.

The active ingredient is naturally microencapsulated within protein occlusion bodies (OB). OBs must be ingested by a codling moth larva to be effective. The highly alkaline environment of the larval digestive tract dissolves the OBs, releasing the virus to infect the cells lining the larval gut to kill the pest.
