Mauget receives expanded label approval for Abacide 2 insecticide

Abacide 2 is an injectable insecticide formulated with 2 percent abamectin, an effective insecticide commonly used to control boring and phloem-feeding insects. Formulated for use with ornamental, residential, forest, nursery, orchard and Christmas trees, Abacide 2 is a proven system for controlling invasive insect species through a single, long-lasting late summer or fall application.

 

The newly expanded label for Abacide 2 includes a higher dose rate and a new group of insect species which can be controlled, including ips, coniferous bark beetles, western, mountain and southern pine beetles, and other boring and phloem-feeding insects which commonly target ornamental and forest trees.

 

“The increased dosage and expanded label for Abacide 2 makes a great product better than ever,” says Nate Dodds, general manager and owner of Mauget. “Horticulturalists, nursery operators, park managers, and home and business owners can use Abacide 2 to prevent damage or invasion from a new group of insects and protect their plants longer than ever before.”
