Product details
Omite Miticide | Propargite 57% EC
A contact miticide for selected mites in tea, chilli, apple and brinjal. Omite is aimed at mite problems, not a general substitute for insect or disease control.
Active ingredients
Propargite 57% EC
Pack sizes
250 ml, 500 ml, 1 ltr
What it controls: The crop-specific spider, red, pink, purple and scarlet mites listed below.
When to use it: When monitoring identifies a label-listed mite problem requiring treatment.
What to include: Coverage appropriate to the mite’s location and the crop-specific formulation and water instructions.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🕷️Dedicated mite control: An acaricide is a product used against mites. Correct identification avoids treating a different insect problem with the wrong product.
- 🎯Contact activity: It acts against mites reached by treatment. Good coverage remains important, especially where mites shelter within foliage.
- 🍃Vapour contribution: The manufacturer describes vapour activity in the crop canopy. This does not turn Omite into a room fumigant.
- 🌳Different crop-use bases: Apple tree recommendations need their own directions; an orchard concentration or per-tree measure is not an acreage recipe.
- 🔄Identifiable resistance group: Propargite is Group 12C. Track that identity when planning subsequent mite treatments.

How It Works: Mode of Action
A contact miticide for selected mites in tea, chilli, apple and brinjal. Omite is aimed at mite problems, not a general substitute for insect or disease control.
- Mites are exposed: Contact with treated surfaces and the product’s vapour activity expose susceptible mites in the treated canopy.
- Energy production is disrupted: Propargite affects the system mites use to make usable energy inside their cells.
- Feeding and activity are affected: Disruption of energy production limits normal mite function. It does not guarantee control of every mite species or resistant population.
Changing the brand name alone does not change the mode of action. Account for Group 12C in a locally advised resistance-management programme, together with crop monitoring and suitable non-chemical measures.
Target Crops & Pests
Match each target to its own crop or use site. A product listed for several crops is not a general treatment for every problem in those crops.
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Tea |
|
| Chilli |
|
| Apple |
|
| Brinjal |
|
Chilli mite information is based on Indian guidance for propargite 57% EC. Confirm that use on the supplied Omite label.
No tomato or other crop use is added from general blog advice, and no all-life-stage or all-mite guarantee is made.
Dosage & Application Guide
Use the complete directions on the supplied label for your crop. The product amount, water volume, method, timing and harvest interval must be confirmed together before treatment.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tea | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Chilli | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Apple | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Brinjal | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
Do not transfer a dose from another formulation, crop or application method. Tank size alone does not determine the amount of product.
*Follow the current supplied label. An unstated value does not mean zero or unrestricted use.
PHI is the time between the last treatment and harvest. Follow the label separately for repeat treatments, worker entry and rain-free conditions.
Apple directions may use a concentration and a per-tree water basis. Do not force them into an area dose or apply them to tea, chilli or brinjal.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Check that the problem is mites: Inspect the affected foliage and identify the mite problem. A product called an insecticide in a catalogue can still be specifically intended as a miticide.
- Plan coverage, not just concentration: Use the labelled method to reach the parts of the crop where mites occur. Vapour activity is not permission to reduce coverage, omit protective equipment or use it indoors.
- Keep the full directions together: Select the crop, target, product amount, water, method and timing as one programme. Do not combine separate recommendations from different products.
- Measure accurately: Use dedicated measuring equipment. Do not use the container cap as an assumed measure or treat a retail pack size as an acreage rate.
- Protect the operator and surroundings: Use label-required protective clothing and equipment, avoid spray drift and keep people, animals, food and drinking water away from handling and treatment.
- Keep a treatment record: Record the date and use site and retain the supplied label. Observe its harvesting, worker entry, equipment-cleaning and disposal requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Omite for mites or for every insect?It is a miticide, also called an acaricide. The uses here are crop-specific mite uses; they do not establish control of aphids, whiteflies, caterpillars or diseases.
2. Does vapour action mean I can fumigate a room?No. The manufacturer describes vapour action in treated crop canopies. This is not authority for room, store or enclosed-space fumigation.
3. Can the apple recommendation be used per acre?Not by simple substitution. A per-tree amount or labelled concentration needs its matching tree water volume and application directions. Do not convert it to acreage without that complete basis.
4. Does contact action make coverage important?Yes. Treatment needs to reach the relevant mite-infested parts of the labelled crop. Follow the full application directions rather than relying only on a high concentration.
5. Will it control mites resistant to any other product?No universal resistance guarantee is made. Propargite is IRAC12C. Identify the pest, review previous treatments and use locally advised, label-approved resistance management.
