INDIANAPOLIS—Dow AgroSciences has received federal registration of XXpire WG insecticide, an ornamental product that combines two new active ingredients, spinetoram and Isoclast Active, a brand-new class of insecticide chemistry. Effective on 39 pests, including seven of the Top 10 most troublesome ornamental insects, XXpire WG controls both chewing and sap-feeding species.
XXpire WG offers two modes of action and provides excellent knockdown of pests. Isoclast is a recently registered active ingredient and the sole member of the sulfoximine class of insect control agents. Spinetoram is a spinosyn insecticide that offers improved insecticidal activity and longer residual control.
At press time, state registrations for XXpire WG were pending. The product is scheduled to be available this fall.
