8 topicsWhy farmers choose itWhy Choose Mainichi? Key Benefits
- ⏱️ Stops Damage Instantly: Although mites die over 3-4 days, Mainichi causes them to stop feeding immediately upon contact, saving your leaves from further harm.
- ?️ Breaks Resistance: It uses a unique chemistry (Group 12C) that kills mites resistant to other common pesticides, making it an essential "rescue" spray.
- ⏳ Long-Lasting Residue: The spray stays active on the leaf surface for 10 to 14 days, killing any new mites that walk over the treated area.
- ?️ Hidden Mite Killer (Vapor Action): It releases fumes that penetrate dense webs and reach the undersides of leaves where sprays usually miss.
- ? Japanese Quality Assurance: Manufactured with Mitsubishi's rigorous standards, ensuring the chemical is stable, pure, and effective every time.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Mainichi works by cutting off the mite's energy supply. It inhibits "Mitochondrial ATP synthase," which is like unplugging the mite's battery. This unique Triple Action process ensures total control:
- Contact Action: Kills mites immediately when the spray droplets land on them.
- Vapor/Fumigant Action: In warm weather, it releases a gas that penetrates through the thick webs spider mites create, killing pests hiding inside.
- Residual Action: It sticks to the waxy leaf surface, creating a toxic zone that kills any mites walking on the leaf for up to two weeks.
Note: While it doesn't kill eggs directly, the residual layer kills the babies (larvae) the moment they hatch.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tea | 300 - 500 ml | 160 - 200 L | 2.0 - 2.5 ml | 7 Days |
| Chilli | 600 ml | 200 L | 3 ml | 7 Days |
| Brinjal | 400 ml | 160 - 200 L | 2.5 ml | 6 Days |
*For Apple: Use 5-10 ml per tree with approx. 10L water per tree (PHI: 9 Days).
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply when you first see mites or "bronzing" on leaves. Avoid spraying in temperatures above 35°C to prevent leaf burn.
- Mixing: Do NOT mix with Oil (Petroleum) or Sulphur/Bordeaux mixture. These combinations cause severe crop damage.
- Coverage: Mites hide under leaves. Ensure the spray covers the underside of the foliage thoroughly.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Highly toxic to fish—do not use near water bodies.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I mix Mainichi with sticking agents or oil?
You can use a standard sticker/spreader, but NEVER mix Mainichi with any oil-based product or apply it within 30 days of an oil spray. It will burn the crop.
2. Does it kill mite eggs?
Mainichi is not a direct egg killer (ovicide). However, its long-lasting residue kills the young mites (larvae) immediately after they hatch, breaking the lifecycle.
3. Is it safe for honey bees?
It is moderately toxic to bees. Avoid spraying during peak flowering times or when bees are actively foraging (mid-day).
4. What is the difference between Mainichi and other miticides?
Mainichi has a "fumigant effect." Unlike standard sprays that only kill what they touch, Mainichi releases vapors that kill mites hiding deep inside webs where sprays can't reach.
5. How long should I wait before harvesting (Tea/Chilli)?
You must wait at least 7 days after the last spray before harvesting tea leaves or picking chillies to ensure residue safety.
