Nufarm’s OpteraPro DUO Insecticides Receive EPA Registration

Nufarm has expanded its insecticide portfolio with EPA registrations of OpteraPro® DUO LC and OpteraPro® DUO GC. The dual-active formulation combines contact and systemic activity to help turf and ornamental professionals manage a broad spectrum of destructive soil-dwelling and surface-feeding pests as well as nuisance insects such as ants, ticks, and fleas.

“As pest pressure evolves across market settings and time constraints remain a key management factor, OpteraPro DUO insecticides offer a convenient, economical, and effective single-application solution for a broad spectrum of pests,” says Jamie Heydinger, Lawn Care Segment Lead, at Nufarm.

OpteraPro DUO LC and OpteraPro DUO GC combine the proven performance of chlorantraniliprole and bifenthrin to deliver both fast-acting and long-lasting control of surface and subsurface insect pests. While the formulation technology is the same, each brand is labeled to support professional use requirements:

• OpteraPro DUO LC is a non-restricted-use option for lawn, landscape, and sports turf.
• OpteraPro DUO GC is the restricted-use pesticide (RUP) label for golf, greenhouse, and nursery professionals.

Nufarm is supporting this introduction with a limited-time launch offer for OpteraPro DUO brands.

For commercial greenhouse and nursery growers, OpteraPro DUO GC halts damage and provides systemic protection from foliar pests like aphids, beetles (including flea beetle), borers, caterpillars, clearwing, fungus gnats, lace bugs, moths, mites, scales, thrips, weevils, whitefly, and soil-dwelling white grubs, pillbugs, and centipedes.
