ActivityAcaricide/Miticide
Bifenazate is a contact acaricide active against all life stages of spider-, red- and grass mites, including eggs. It has a rapid knockdown effect (usually less than 3 days) and residual activity on the leaf lasting up to 4 weeks. The product’s activity is not temperature-dependant - control is not reduced at low temperatures. It doesn't control rust-, flat- or broad-mites.
Studies to date suggest bifenazate acts as a GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) antagonist in the peripheral nervous system at the neuromuscular synapse in insects. GABA is an amino acid present in the nervous system of insects. Bifenazate blocks the GABA-activated chloride channels, resulting in over-excitation of the peripheral nervous systems of susceptible pests. This mode of action is reported to be unique among acaricides, which suggests the product could play an important future role in mite resistance management strategies.
Bifenazate is active against mites resistant to standard and recently introduced acaricides. It is safe to predatory Stigmaeid mites (including Zetzellia mali - see ESA 2002), Phytoseid mites (Typhlodromus accidentalis, T pyri, Phytoseiulus persimilis, Amblyseius fallacis) and beneficial insects such as green lacewings (Chrysoperla carnea). Uniroyal recommends it for use in IPM programmes.
Studies at the University of Florida in the late 1990's identified a possible emergence of resistance to abamectin in two-spotted mites in strawberries; bifenazate may provide an alternative treatment.
In field trials, no phytotoxicity has been reported, even at rates much greater than those recommended. -
