Pylon Miticide-Insecticide

Pylon is a suspension concentrate miticide-insecticide containing chlorfenapyr, the only pyrrole-class (IRAC Group 13) active for this range of greenhouse pests. Chlorfenapyr uncouples oxidative phosphorylation, cutting off the pest's ability to produce energy, which makes Pylon a strong rotation partner for resistance management.

Pylon is for use only in commercial greenhouses on ornamentals, juvenile fruit and nut trees, vines, brambles, bushberries and fruiting vegetables. It controls motile stages of mites and several insect pests, with most pests dying within 72 hours and 14 to 21 days of control depending on pest pressure.
