What is Hexythiazox?

Description

Hexythiazox is an acaricide that induces toxicity in larvae of the two-spotted spider mite T. urticae and the European red mite P. ulmi (LC₅₀s = 0.15-0.58 and 0.23-0.62 mg AI/L, respectively), as well as in the summer and winter eggs of P. ulmi (LC₅₀s = 2.2 and 20 ppm, respectively). Hexythiazox is toxic to bluegill (L. macrochirus; LC₅₀ = 3.2 mg/L) and D. magna (EC₅₀ = 0.36 mg/L) but not rats (LD₅₀ = >5,000 mg/kg). Formulations containing hexythiazox have been used in the control of mites in agriculture.

The Uses of Hexythiazox

Hexythiazox is a mite growth regulator and a thiazolidine based acaricide that has long-lasting effects against many kinds of mites and is applied at any stage of the plant growth from budding to frui ting.

The Uses of Hexythiazox

Nonsystemic acaricide.
