Abamectin is a mixture of avermectins containing about 80% avermectin B1a and 20% avermectin B1b. These two components B1a and B1b have very similar biological and toxicological properties. The avermectins are insecticidal/miticidal compounds derived from the soil bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis. Abamectin is a natural fermentation product of this bacterium. It acts as an insecticide by affecting the nervous system of and paralyzing insects. Abamectin is used to control insect and mite pests of citrus pear and nut tree crops and it is used by homeowners for control of fire ants. Active Ingredient: Abamectin 1.8% -

Omite is a contact miticide used to control mites on a variety of field, fruit and vegetable crops as well as ornamentals. Upon application, the spray must be applied to existing mites and mite eggs or any mites to come in contact with the spray deposits. Spray thoroughly to cover the entire plant surface. If temperatures are high at the time when Omite is applied, “vaporization” may occur and this reaction also contribute to mite control. But this process must not be used as a substitute for thorough coverage. Omite doubles up as a repellant that incites increased movement giving motile mites more opportunities to make contact with the spray deposits. Once in contact with this miticide, mite will stop feeding egg laying decreases and paralysis occurs slowly. Resistance to propargite products slow to develop. Active Ingredient: Propargite 57% -

This product contains a unique combination of iron phosphate, which is a plant nutrient that occurs in soils, with slug and snail bait additives. The bait which is not ingested by snails and slugs will degrade and become a part of the soil. The bait is ingested by slugs and snails when they travel from their hiding places to plants. Ingestion, even in small amounts, will cause them to cease feeding. This physiological effect of the bait gives immediate protection to the plants even though the slugs and snails may remain in the area. After eating the bait, the slugs and snails cease feeding, become less mobile and begin to die within three to six days. Dead slugs and snails may not be visible as they often crawl away to secluded places to die. Plant protection will be observed in the decrease in plant damage. Active Ingredient: Iron Phosphate 1.0% -
