FAQ
What is Cyhexatin 60% SC used for?
Cyhexatin 60% SC is a broad-spectrum acaricide used to
control various mites in agricultural crops, ornamental plants, and fruit trees. It
effectively targets spider mites, rust mites, gall mites, and other harmful mite species
that can cause damage to crops.
How does Cyhexatin 60% SC work?
Cyhexatin works by
disrupting the mite's ability to produce energy, leading to the mites' death. It interferes
with the mite's ability to metabolize fats, ultimately causing it to starve and perish. This
mode of action makes Cyhexatin an effective and reliable solution for mite
control.
Is Cyhexatin 60% SC safe to use on crops?
Yes, Cyhexatin 60% SC is safe
to use on a wide range of crops when applied according to the recommended dosage and
application guidelines. It has low toxicity to mammals and birds and breaks down quickly in
the environment, minimizing its impact on non-target organisms.
How should Cyhexatin
60% SC be applied?
Cyhexatin should be applied as a foliar spray, ensuring thorough
coverage of the plant surfaces where mites are present. It is important to follow the
specific application instructions provided on the product label to achieve the best results.
Consult with a professional if you are unsure about the application process.

How long does Cyhexatin 60% SC remain active in the
field?
Cyhexatin 60% SC has residual activity that can persist for several weeks,
depending on factors such as environmental conditions, application rate, and mite species.
Regular monitoring of mite populations is essential to determine the need for reapplication
and maintain effective control.
