TetraCURB™ Concentrate - Mite Control Solution For Commercial GREENHOUSES & Horticulture operations 

*Kemin internal document TL-18-00007

Mode of Action - Smart Blend for Full Spider Mite Control

Leveraging our understanding of plant science and pest management, the TetraCURB smart blend formulation acts through multiple modes of action to target mites in the adult and nymph stages of the pest life cycle. The multiple modes of action target mites through consistent application resulting in quick knockdown and high mortality.

1. The rosemary oil targets the octopamine receptor in mites to disrupt their nervous system, causing avoidance behavior, paralysis, and suffocation.
2. The emulsifier allows for uniform product contact across the plant surface. This provides maximum product efficacy of the action with minimum phytotoxicity.
3. The soap disrupts cuticular waxes of the insect allowing rosemary oil to quickly penetrate and induce water loss in mites, resulting in desiccation and death.

TetraCURB Helps Growers Overcome Spider Mite Resistance

Because the TetraCURB smart blend provides unique modes of action, it is more difficult for spider mites to develop pesticide resistance.

As a targeted and environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic pesticides, TetraCURB can be used in an IPM program to help kill spider mites and mitigate pesticide resistance.

Six-week efficacy trial 

In a six-week efficacy trial on marigold flowers, TetraCURB reduced challenging mite populations by more than 90 percent without harming plants. 

directions for use

Easy to Apply and Convenient to Incorporate

• TetraCURB is labeled for use on all indoor and outdoor plants, including food crops. Read the product label for complete guidelines.
  
• TetraCURB should be diluted in water and applied to plants using traditional spraying equipment.
• Growers can spray TetraCURB at any time during the growing season, but we recommend applying the product at the beginning of a crop cycle.
• If using TetraCURB as part of an IPM program, there are multiple application rates and frequencies, depending on the level of infestation.
  • As a preventative treatment, we recommend only one spray per week.
  • Whereas for a heavier program, with already established populations of spider mites, we recommend spraying a minimum of two to three times over two weeks.
