• PRODUCT INFORMATION
• Powerful Systemic Control for Sucking Pests
• K-MEC 18EC is a high-performance systemic insecticide formulated with Abamectin 18g/L. K-MEC provides effective control of Red spider mites, spider mites, and leaf miners, in roses, French beans and tomatoes respectively.
• K-MEC 18EC interferes with nerve transmission in pests, causing paralysis, stopping feeding activity, reducing pest movement.
• If you are searching for the best miticide for red spider mites in roses or an effective solution for leaf miners and spider mites in tomatoes and French beans, K-MEC 18EC offers reliable protection.
• MODE OF ACTION
•  Abamectin is an avermectin insecticide, miticide, and nematicide in IRAC Group 6. Abamectin acts primarily through contact and stomach activity by affecting the nervous system of insects, mites, and nematodes. It binds to and activates glutamate-gated chloride channels, increasing the flow of chloride ions into nerve and muscle cells. This causes hyperpolarization of the cells, disrupting nerve signal transmission and leading to paralysis. Affected pests rapidly cease feeding and eventually die due to irreversible nervous system impairment.
• Key Properties:
• Translaminar penetration through leaf surfaces
• Contact and stomach action

METHOD OF APPLICATION

Fill the spray tank with half of the desired quantity of water. Add the recommended amount of K-MEC 18EC. Complete to fill until desired quantity of water while stirring constantly.

APPLICATION GUIDELINES

1. Spray at onset of spidermites and leafminers.
2. Do three applications, in the intervals of 7-10 days.
3. Apply as a full-cover foliar spray
4. Avoid spraying during extreme heat
5. Target young pest stages for best results
6. Apply as a full-cover foliar spray, ensuring thorough coverage of all plant parts.

KEY FEATURES:

Translaminar Penetration

When sprayed on foliage, abamectin K -MEC 18EC is absorbed into the leaf tissue, forming a reservoir within the leaf, making it effective against leaf miners and spider mites feeding on the underside of leaves.

Extended Residual Control

Provides lasting protection, reducing the need for frequent re-spraying.
