Introduction

POMAIS Abamectin 1.8% EC insecticide is an advanced, low-toxicity formulation designed to help you manage critical pest pressures across a wide range of crops. As a member of the macrocyclic lactone family, it delivers both contact and stomach poison effects, causing pest paralysis by disrupting the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmission pathway. This leads to fast immobilization and death in common pest targets like leafminers, mites, diamondback moths, and rice borers.

Thanks to its translaminar penetration, Abamectin 1.8% EC reaches hidden pests beneath leaf surfaces while being gentle on beneficial insects. You can apply it confidently across crops such as vegetables, cotton, potatoes, citrus, rice, and ornamentals. Its compatibility with various active ingredients also makes it a core product in IPM rotation plans. With customizable packaging, export documentation, and registration support, POMAIS ensures that your abamectin supply chain remains efficient, reliable, and tailored to your market needs.

It has high insecticidal activity and rapid medicinal effect.

Has a strong osmotic effect.

It is resistant to rain erosion and has a long lasting effect.

Package

The abamectin should be stored in a dry, cool, ventilated, and rainproof place, away from fire and heat sources. Keep it out of reach of children and lock it. Do not store or transport with food, beverages, grains, or feed.

Mode of Action

When you apply Abamectin 1.8% EC, its unique mode of action targets the nervous system of pests with fast and irreversible effects. As a neurotoxic insecticide, abamectin binds to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors at the nerve endings of arthropods. This enhances GABA release, which disrupts neural signal transmission, leading to muscle paralysis, loss of mobility, and ultimately death due to starvation and dehydration.

Unlike systemic pesticides, abamectin works mainly through ingestion and contact, but its translaminar movement allows it to penetrate leaf surfaces and reach pests feeding on the undersides. This makes it highly effective against leafminers, mites, and larval pests that are otherwise difficult to reach.

You’ll typically observe initial pest paralysis within a few hours of treatment, with full mortality occurring in 2 to 4 days, depending on pest species and environmental conditions. Its selective toxicity minimizes harm to most beneficial insects when used as directed, making it a preferred tool in IPM (Integrated Pest Management) programs.

Whether you’re targeting mites on fruit trees or leafminers in vegetables, Abamectin provides target-specific control with minimal risk of resistance when properly rotated with other insecticide classes.

Target Pests & Application Spectrum

Abamectin 1.8% EC is engineered to provide broad-spectrum insecticidal and miticidal control in both open-field and greenhouse environments. Its effectiveness covers a wide range of economically damaging pests that affect fruiting vegetables, field crops, and ornamentals.

Primary Target Pests:

Mites (Tetranychus spp., Panonychus spp.) – including red spider mites and two-spotted spider mites
Leafminers (Liriomyza spp.) – especially damaging in tomato, cucumber, and leafy greens
Diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) – a major pest in cruciferous vegetables
Rice stem borer (Scirpophaga incertulas) – prevalent in paddy fields
Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) – destructive to cotton and legumes
Thrips and beet armyworms (Spodoptera exigua) – on floriculture and vegetable crops
Fire ants – in orchards and non-crop settings

Crops & Application Zones:

Crop Type	Target Pests	Application Stage
Cruciferous vegetables (cabbage, kale)	Diamondback moth, leafminers	2nd instar larval stage
Rice	Stem borers, leafrollers	Peak egg hatching or early larval stage
Cotton	Mites, bollworms	Early infestation monitoring
Citrus & Fruit Trees	Red spider mites, thrips	Early season and maintenance applications
Mint & Ornamentals	Mites, leafminers, thrips	At visible signs of infestation
Ginger & Tubers	Pyralid larvae	3–5 leaf stage or pest appearance threshold

By incorporating abamectin insecticide into your crop protection program, you ensure precision pest control across both open-field and protected cultivation systems, reducing yield loss while maintaining residue compliance standards.

Application Methods & Recommended Dosage

To achieve maximum efficacy and crop safety, Abamectin 1.8% EC should be applied through foliar spraying during specific pest development stages. Proper timing, dosage, and equipment calibration are critical to its performance.

Application Guidelines:

Dilution: For 1.8% EC formulation, dilute at a ratio of approximately 1:1000 (1 liter per 1000 liters of water), depending on crop and infestation severity.
Spray Volume: Ensure thorough and uniform coverage on both upper and lower leaf surfaces.
Frequency: Typically, 1–2 applications per season are recommended, with a spray interval of 7–14 days based on pest resurgence.

Recommended Dosage by Crop and Pest:

Crop	Target Pest	Dosage (Product/ha)	Method
Rice	Cnaphalocrocis medinalis	15–20 g/mu	Foliar spray
Ginger	Pyrausta nubilalis	30–40 ml/mu	Foliar spray
Brassica crops	Plutella xylostella (DBM)	35–40 ml/mu	Foliar spray
Cotton	Helicoverpa armigera, mites	50–160 ml/mu	Foliar spray
Soybean, potato	Leafminers, beet armyworms	30–50 ml/mu	Foliar spray
Fruit trees, citrus	Red spider mites, thrips	600–1000 ml/ha	Foliar spray

Note: Always avoid spraying on windy days or when rain is expected within one hour. Follow crop-specific PHI (Pre-Harvest Interval) guidelines to ensure residue compliance.

Using calibrated knapsack or boom sprayers will improve distribution and increase the active ingredient’s leaf penetration, particularly on crops with dense canopies or waxy surfaces.

Tank Mix Compatibility & IPM Integration

Abamectin 1.8% EC demonstrates excellent tank mix compatibility, making it a reliable partner in combination with various insecticides, acaricides, and fungicides. This allows you to optimize application schedules, reduce labor costs, and broaden pest control spectrum in a single pass.

Compatible Mixtures:

Abamectin can be tank-mixed with a wide range of agrochemicals, including:

Neonicotinoids (e.g., Acetamiprid, Imidacloprid) – For extended activity against aphids, whiteflies, and leafhoppers
Diamides (e.g., Chlorantraniliprole) – Enhances larval control and leafminer suppression
IGRs (Insect Growth Regulators) (e.g., Diflubenzuron, Pyriproxyfen) – Effective in anti-resistance strategies
Fungicides (e.g., Difenoconazole, Propiconazole) – Suitable for combined pest and disease management in vegetables and orchards

Note: Avoid mixing with alkaline substances, as Abamectin is pH-sensitive and may degrade in high pH tank mixes.

Role in IPM Programs:

Abamectin plays a strategic role in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) due to its:

Selective toxicity to target pests while preserving many beneficial insects
Low environmental mobility, minimizing off-target effects and groundwater contamination
Resistance management potential when used in rotation or in combination with other MOA groups

Its rapid knockdown combined with a relatively short pre-harvest interval (PHI) makes it ideal for low-residue programs and late-stage interventions in high-value crops.

POMAIS recommends integrating Abamectin with biological controls and cultural practices, such as:

Timely crop rotation
Use of pest monitoring tools (sticky traps, pheromone lures)
Strategic spray timing during pest egg-laying or early larval stages

By adopting an IPM-based approach with Abamectin 1.8% EC, you not only improve control efficacy but also prolong the field viability of your pest control tools.

Environmental Fate: It binds tightly to soil particles and undergoes microbial degradation, thus minimizing groundwater contamination risks.
Impact on Non-Target Species: Although toxic to fish, bees, and silkworms, its non-systemic, low-residue profile reduces long-term impact when applied properly and in accordance with label directions.

Handling Precaution: Avoid contamination of water bodies and pollinator-rich areas. Do not mix with alkaline products. Store away from food, feed, and heat sources.

Worker Safety:

Re-entry Interval (REI): Typically 12–24 hours post-application, depending on crop and national regulations.
Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI): 3–7 days for most vegetables and fruit crops, 14 days for rice and long-season crops.
