Tristar 8.5 SL Insecticide

Tristar 8.5SL is a water-based suspension formula that provides the same effective, long-lasting insect management growers who’ve used Tristar 30 are accustomed to. This is the fastest acting insecticide for landscape and nursery-period! It is also labeled for use on certain vegetable including greenhouse tomatoes Would be a great product to stop an infestation to then be followed up with a longer term systemic insecticide such as Garant, or Midash. Provides contact, systemic and translaminar (moves through the leaf) activity to penetrate and protect the old and new growth. Absorbs and spreads within the plant to provide quick knockdown of a wide spectrum of insects (in as little as 12 to 15 min. as a direct spray). Long lasting residual. Up to 4 weeks on bedding plants, 4 to 6 weeks on woody ornamentals and trees (depending on the plant material). TriStar exhibits ovicidal activity on select insects such as whitefly. Good IPM and resistance management tool. Effective alternative to organophosphates, pyrethroids, and other classes of chemistry that may have developed resistance. Excellent tank mix partner. Goes into solution easily and is compatible with most commonly used fungicides and miticides. EPA classified as a reduced risk insecticide. TriStar has a minor impact on many beneficial insects, including bees. TriStar provides a higher level of worker safety as it is a non-cholinesterase inhibitor unlike organophosphates and carbamates. 12 hr. REI for Nursery and Greenhouse sites.
