Short Description:
EVERGREEN
® is a synergized pyrethrin
formulation for ULV adulticide applications. The emulsifiable concentrate
contains 0.5 lb pyrethrin and 5 lb of synergist (PBO) per gallon, which
provides the highest pyrethrin to PBO ratio of 1:10. Labeled for aerial and
ground ULV treatment, the concentration and specific gravity make this
formulation an ideal choice where organophosphate or pyrethroid resistance
is a concern. EVERGREEN is an option for use in product rotation for
resistance management.
Active Ingredient:
Pyrethrin; 60% Piperonyl butoxide (PBO)
Mode of Action:
Acetylcholine Receptor Agonist, Neurotoxin. Pyrethrin affects the
sodium channel at the nerve axon, which interferes with the nerve function
causing repeated and extended misfiring of nerve impulses, causing quick
paralysis and knockdown. PBO has no insecticidal activity, but has synergistic
properties when combined with pyrethrin. The synergist interferes with insects'
ability to metabolize pyrethrin, thus allowing less pyrethrin to be required to
produce mortality.
Where/When to use:
Approved for urban, rural, residential, agricultural areas, cropland,
wetland, recreational areas, etc. Very broad range of use sites. No crop
restrictions, however, not certified for organic crops.
Formulations/Packaging:
- 5 gl pail, 30 gl dr, 55 gl dr, 275 gl returnable tote
Features/Benefits:
- Provides highest synergist ratio for pyrethrin and PBO formulations.
- Has higher specific gravity than most pyrethroid formulations, making it a good alternative for aerial applications.
- Excellent choice for chemical rotation for resistance management.
