Madex® XLV | Advanced Viral Insecticide for Resistant Pest Strains
Madex® XLV introduces a powerful new baculovirus strain specifically developed to combat resistant populations of codling moth and Oriental fruit moth. This advanced insecticidal virus provides growers with a competitive edge in managing these challenging orchard pests, offering a unique mode of action that enhances existing control programs.
Formulated as an aqueous suspension concentrate, Madex XLV is designed for foliar application where it targets larvae upon ingestion. The virus rapidly infects pest cells, causing feeding cessation and mortality while producing additional viruses to continue the control cycle. This product works synergistically with other viral insecticides like Madex HP and Cyd-X HP for comprehensive resistance management.
