FMC Admiral 10EC
Admiral is an easy to use, selective insect growth regulator with attributes well-suited to managing
whitefly populations. Admiral contains pyriproxyfen, a juvenile hormone mimic that interferes with
whitefly reproduction and development. Juvenile hormone is secreted naturally in the early larval
stages of insects and is responsible for maintaining larval characteristics. As juvenile hormone levels in the insects decrease and disappear over time, they progress on to later instars and ultimately pupate and emerge as adults. Juvenile hormone also controls insect ovary development.
It is a pyridine-based pesticide which is found to be effective against a variety of arthropoda.
