Consider 5 EC acaricide non-systemic growth regulator for mite control and thrips, 1-liter capacity

CONCID 5 EC - acaricide, growth regulator insecticide for pest mite and spider 1 liter CONCID 5 EC - acaricide, non-systemic growth regulator insecticide, contains active ingredient Hexythiazox at 5% concentration in an emulsifiable concentrate EC. Used to control pest mites and spiders on agricultural crops, especially at the beginning of infection appearance and before increasing the number of mobile stages inside the field. CONCID 5 EC works differently from traditional acaricides, targeting mite eggs and immature stages such as nymphs, helping to prevent egg hatching and stop the development of small stages, thus limiting re-infection and breaking the pest's life cycle. Therefore, it is a suitable option within agricultural pesticide programs, especially when used early and as part of an integrated pest control program for spiders. Acaricide, growth regulator for pest mites and spiders Spiders and mites are pests that can spread quickly on vegetables, fruit trees, and ornamental plants, especially in hot and dry weather. Infection often appears as yellowing or small spots on leaves, weak growth, light cobwebs, or decline in leaf and fruit quality. CONCID 5 EC helps manage infection by targeting eggs and nymphs, not directly killing adult spiders. It is best used at the beginning of infection or within a program containing another pesticide targeting mobile stages when there is strong infestation. This approach helps reduce pest density and prevent re-emergence more effectively. Specifications of CONCID 5 EC Trade name: CONCID 5 EC Product type: acaricide / acarosan Active ingredient: Hexythiazox Active ingredient concentration: 5% Formulation: emulsifiable concentrate EC Mode of action: growth regulator IGR Effect: targets eggs, nymphs, and immature stages Effect on adults: does not directly kill adult spiders Mobility: non-systemic with a local translaminar effect inside the leaf Resistance group: IRAC Group 10A Suitable crops: vegetables, fruit trees, ornamental plants according to label recommendations Country of origin: Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Capacity: 1 liter Features of CONCID 5 EC for mite control Contains Hexythiazox at 5% active concentration effective against mite eggs. Helps prevent egg hatching and stop nymph development. Contributes to breaking the pest’s life cycle and reducing re-infection. Has a longer protection period compared to some fast-acting pesticides. Possesses a translaminar effect, helping reach infection sites inside the leaf. Suitable for early use at the beginning of infection before spider populations spread heavily. Beneficial within integrated control programs because it does not rely solely on killing adult stages directly. Can be rotated with other acaricides to reduce resistance development. Uses of CONCID in vegetables and fruit trees CONCID 5 EC is used to control red spiders and mites on vegetable crops at the early stage of infection, especially to reduce eggs and nymphs before they become dense mobile stages. It can also be used on fruit trees such as citrus, apples, pears, peaches, and grapes according to label recommendations. In ornamental plants, it is suitable when early mite or spider mite infestations occur, with a limited test on a few sensitive plants before widespread application. Since pests are often on the underside of leaves, good coverage during spraying is necessary. To improve coverage, use appropriate tools from the sprayers and agricultural spraying equipment, adjusting nozzles to ensure the solution reaches the underside of leaves and mite gathering areas. Method of using CONCID 5 EC Always adhere to the product label and specified doses according to the crop and severity of infection. Based on product data, general usage rates are as follows: Vegetables: used to control red spiders at 0.7 to 1 ml per 1 liter of water, or 70 to 100 ml per 100 liters of water, with full coverage of the plant. Waiting period: 7 days. Fruit trees such as citrus, apples, pears, peaches, and grapes: used at 0.7 to 1 ml per 1 liter of water depending on infection severity. Waiting period: 7 days. Ornamental plants: used at 0.7 to 1 ml per 1 liter of water depending on infection severity and plant sensitivity. Preferably spray at the beginning of infection, not after severe spread. Focus on the underside of leaves, as it is the most common place for spiders and mites. Important technical notes when using CONCID CONCID does not directly kill adult spiders, so it should not be used alone in severe infestations. The best timing for use is at the beginning of infection or when eggs and nymphs are observed. In case of strong infestation, it is preferable to use it within a program with another pesticide targeting mobile stages. It is not recommended to repeat use more than twice per season to reduce resistance risk. Rotate with pesticides from different groups when long-term control programs are needed. Good coverage of the underside of leaves is a key factor for treatment success. Precautions for using CONCID acaricide Read the entire product label before use. Do not exceed the recommended dose for the crop and pest. Do not spray during high heat or strong wind. Wear gloves, mask, and protective clothing during preparation and spraying. Avoid contact with skin and eyes or inhaling spray mist. Do not mix randomly with other pesticides or fertilizers without compatibility testing. Entry into the field is prohibited until the spray solution dries. Keep out of reach of children, food, and feed. Wash spraying equipment thoroughly after use. Why is CONCID used in spider control programs? Spiders need a precise control program because they reproduce quickly, and new generations can appear in a short period if eggs and nymphs are not targeted. Here, CONCID 5 EC is important because it does not only target mobile stages but also helps limit re-infection by affecting eggs and immature stages. However, it is not recommended to use it as a sole solution in advanced infestations. The best approach is to include it in an integrated program that involves early inspection, using a suitable pesticide for mobile stages when needed, improving ventilation, reducing plant stress, and rotating pesticides among different groups within agricultural products. Frequently asked questions about CONCID 5 EC Is CONCID 5 EC an acaricide? Yes, CONCID 5 EC is an acaricide containing Hexythiazox used to control mites and spiders. Does CONCID kill adult spiders?
