MultiMite Control

Natural Broad Spectrum Mite Control

MultiMite Control is a plant-derived insecticide that targets all mites, aphids, thrips, whiteflies, stinkbugs, and leaf/plant hoppers. This extract is derived from the Sophora plant, which functions through enzymatic inhibition eradicating adults and preventing the pest from ever reaching their adult stage. It is applicable on the leaves as a foliar spray, kills on contact or ingestion, and is fast acting. MultiMite Control leads a new class of bio-rational insecticides that have 0-hour REI and no toxicity restrictions.

Pests Targeted

Effective against the following target aphids, mites, thrips, and whitefly listed below:

• Effective against all mites (spider and two-spotted).
• Effective against aphids (apple, cotton, green peach, and mealy plum).
• Effective against plant-hoppers and stink bugs.
• Effective against thrips (flower and palm).
• Effective against whitefly (greenhouse and sweet potato).

MultiMite Control has been tested on a wide variety of crops with an average efficacy greater than 80% on various aphids, mites, and whitefly field tests.

Application

At the beginning of mite infestations, use 5.8 mL (1 1/6 tsp.) of product with one gallon (1 gal.) of water in order to dilute MultiMite Control. It can also be used in other quantities respecting always the dilution rate of 1:650, product to water. After dilution, spray the product onto plant leaves. In area applications, use 10.4 oz to 20.8 oz per acre of land. Do not apply prior to excessive rains since this may reduce product effectiveness.

Active Ingredients

MultiMite Control uses natural plant extracts of Oxymatrine as the primary ingredient to reach the highest level of efficacy, while greatly reducing the environmental impact of using this product. Oxymatrine is extracted from the Sophora root and is used as a pesticide to prevent mite, thrip, aphid, whitefly and other insect infestations.

Safety & Environmental Info

If ingested, may cause stomach irritation. It is nontoxic to people and livestock and causes no pollution to water and soil. Appropriate land management practices should be used at all times with any pesticide; this material should be prevented from entering public or private water supplies (including wells) and any lake, stream, or river.

Mode of Action

MultiMite Control must be applied on leaves. Applying the product on leaves inhibits feeding and can kill aphids on contact. Oxymatrine causes paralysis of an insect’s nerve center, then solidifies albumen and blocks the air vents of the pest, causing it to suffocate and die. It also suppresses food absorption of insects and reduces larvae livability. Oxymatrine also hinders their growth and prevents insects from laying eggs.
