How It Works: Mode of Action
Canister combines two active ingredients that affect pests in different ways.
- Mite growth is disrupted: Hexythiazox interferes with the formation of material needed for mite development.
- Pest energy is affected: Diafenthiuron blocks an enzyme involved in cellular energy production.
- Use within a rotation: Plan treatment around the identified pest and the supplied label, rather than repeating the same action groups throughout the season.
Two ingredients do not make resistance impossible. Follow local resistance-management advice and the supplied label.
