Nealta Miticide Receives EPA Registration

BASF announced today that Nealta miticide received full, unconditional registration with the EPA. The miticide is labeled for use on treenut (including almonds and pistachios), grape, strawberry, apple and pear crops, providing growers with a powerful miticide that can be used as part of an effective integrated pest management program.

With a unique site of action not found in any other miticide in the U.S., Nealta miticide delivers residual control of mites at all life stages. Cyflumetofen, the active ingredient in Nealta miticide, is highly effective against mites that have developed resistance to other acaricides.
