Mealybugs pose a serious threat to ornamentals and agricultural plants. Ornamental growers need to defend against mealybugs in many crops, including orchids, gardenias, hibiscus, ferns and others. For agricultural growers, mealybugs are a growing problem in grape vineyards, pome fruits and other tree fruits crops. Large-scale infestation can cause leaf drop, and mealybugs also produce sticky honeydew that encourages growth of sooty mold which causes cosmetic injury to ornamentals foliage and decreases the quality of fruits.
In the face-off against mealybugs, Valent provides preventive and curative armor.

For grape, pome fruit and other tree fruits growers: control mealybugs with a fast-acting, long-lasting third-generation neonicotinoid.
For California grape growers: control vine and grape mealybugs with soil or foliar application.
For grape growers, take out whiteflies and grape and vine mealybugs; third-generation neonicotinoid has translaminar activity when applied to foliage and is super-systemic when soil applied. Venom is also a fast-acting insecticide against whiteflies in vegetables and other specialty crops.
For Lawn Care Operators and golf course superintendents: preventive and curative control of scale, mealybugs and grubs; wide application window, longest-lasting residual, no need to water in.
For ornamental growers and lawn care operators: control Q- and B-biotype whiteflies, mites, scale and mealybugs with fast uptake, increased concentration, long residual.
For ornamental growers: control mites and mealybugs in- and outdoors.
