Nufarm Americas, Inc. recently received new label registration for DiPel Pro DF biological insecticide for use on light brown apple moths.
“The market-leading DiPel PRO DF plays a crucial role in pesticide management programs for greenhouse and ornamental operators,” Rick Fletcher, technical service manager at Nufarm Americas, said. “This new label use provides an opportunity that applicators hadn’t had previously for controlling the invasive, plant-destroying pest that is the light brown apple moth.”
A widely used biological insecticide, DiPel PRO DF was already approved as a broad-spectrum control of more than 30 species of lepidopterous insects, including tent caterpillar and various bagworms, looper, army worms and tobacco budworm.
OMRI-listed for organic products, DiPel Pro DF's is safe for ornamentals, people, the environment and beneficial insects.
The new expanded use applies to California as well as other parts of the country.
