OHP Marketing Log-in

Spider mites have rasping-sucking mouthparts. Feeding damage appears a light-colored spots, or stipples on upper leaf surfaces. Spider mites also produce webbing. Heavy infestations can kill plants or cause leaves to drop off, and webbing can cover leaves and flowers resulting in aesthetic injury.

Spider mite developmental stages are egg, larva, protonymph, deutonymph, and adult. Development from egg to adult takes about 8 days (77°-95° F, 25°-35° C) to 28 days (50°-68 °F, 10°-20 °C). Hot and dry conditions are most favorable. Spider mite development is affected by the host plant, plant nutrition, leaf age, and moisture stress. Moisture stressed plants often have higher spider mite populations. High moisture slows mite dispersal. Spider mites are usually on undersides of leaves, but may be on/in flowers in heavy infestations.

Pylon® - Miticide
For use on ornamental crops grown in commercial greenhouses.
Rate: 2.6 fl. oz. - 5.2 fl. oz. per 100 gallons
Signal Word: Caution REI: 12 hours

Pylon is a member of the new class of miticides known as Pyrroles. With good contact and stomach activity, its mode of action is different from the miticide classes available today.

Pylon works well as a rotational miticide for the control of Spider mites including Two-spotted spider mite, Broad mite, Cyclamen mite, Rust mite and others. Pylon should be applied in combination with other effective miticides/insecticides with a different mode of action when used in a subsequent crop in the same greenhouse structure. Do not store below 32° F or in direct sunlight or heat. Always read the label.

Note: With the many new varieties and cultivars it is wise to test each for phytotoxcity before doing large areas if there is no local experience.
