New Organic Mycoinsecticide From BioWorks Now Registered In Every State

Posted by Brian Sparks|August 17, 2016

BioWorks recently announced that its Mycotrol ESO, an organic mycoinsecticide, is now registered in all U.S. states. It can be used for control of whitefly, thrips, aphids, and other insects in greenhouses, nurseries, and on turf and vegetables as well as landscapes and interiorscapes.

Mycotrol ESO is the organic version of BotaniGard ES. Based on the fungus Beauveria bassiana strain GHA, it is versatile enough to use as a stand-alone, as a tank mix partner, or in rotation with other insecticides.

Mycotrol ESO is exempt from residue tolerances, has a 0-day pre-harvest interval, and a 4-hour REI. There is no limit to the number of times it can be applied in a season, and it is compatible with many beneficial insects.

“Mycotrol ESO is an important tool for many of our growers,” says Joe Gionta, Director of Marketing and Sales at BioWorks. “It enables growers to control many troublesome insects with an organic product.”
