- Floramite 240 SC is a specialized acaricide containing the active ingredient bifenazate 24% as a suspension concentrate (SC). It is used to control red spider mites, two-spotted spider mites and other mites on agricultural crops, especially in greenhouses. It acts by contact, disrupting energy transfer within the pest's cells, so the mites stop feeding and then die. It is effective against the mobile stages of spider mites and provides good residual activity. Suitable for use within integrated pest management (IPM) programs.
