BotaniGard and Mycotrol products now available through Certis Biologicals

Certis Biologicals, the manufacturer of BotaniGard and Mycotrol mycoinsecticides, has fully completed transition of the proven legacy products back into its leading portfolio of biopesticides and has begun managing all distribution of these products through its established network. Effective immediately, growers in the U.S. and Canada can source the mycoinsecticides from Certis Biologicals through leading retailers and distributors.

Products included are: BOTANIGARD 22WP, BOTANIGARD ES, BOTANIGARD MAXX, MYCOTROL WPO and MYCOTROL ESO. These products, powered by the GHA strain of Beauveria bassiana, provide effective control against all life cycle stages of aphids, thrips, weevils, whiteflies and many other insects that threaten the health and yields of crops.

“We are proud to manufacture these products in our U.S.-based manufacturing facilities and now we are delighted to partner more closely with growers to ensure their successful use on a variety of crops and growing conditions,” said Jim Black, business director. “During the transition, Certis has invested heavily in our internal sales and technical team to fully support these products and the growers who rely upon them.”

Led by Black, the Certis Biologicals Garden, Greenhouse and Nursery team includes industry veterans Lee Schaber and Gabe Diaz-Saavedra as key account managers, as well as recent additions Dr. Jeremy Wagnitz as technical manager and Dr. Matt Brecht as regional sales manager.
