Trigard 75 WP is a non-systemic insect growth regulator (IGR) for leaf miner control, containing the active ingredient cyromazine 75%. It is effective against the larvae of leaf miner flies (Liriomyza spp.) that attack many vegetable crops, beans and onions. It inhibits chitin formation in the insect's body (chitin synthesis inhibitor), stopping larval development and causing early death, which reduces infestation and protects leaf health and crop quality.
Key Features:
- Specialized and effective against leaf miner larvae in various crops.
- Innovative mode of action as a chitin synthesis inhibitor that stops insect development.
- Reduces leaf damage and preserves leaf vigor and fruit quality.
- Easy to use and disperses in water.
- Suitable for greenhouses and open fields.
- Long-lasting activity reduces the need for repeat applications.
