Features & Benefits
- Product Features
- HexamiteTM provides residual control of immature pest mite species which is dependent upon the rate used, growth stage of the mite, species of mite and environmental conditions under which the product was applied.
- HexamiteTM controls newly deposited eggs and eggs which are laid after application. If a medium to high population of adults is present, HexamiteTM in combination with another registered miticide (adulticide) may result in improved control.
- Good translaminar action that the EPA has classified as practically nontoxic to beneficial insects makes HexamiteTM ideal for use in IPM and resistance management programs.

- Application Information
Use sufficient spray volume to obtain thorough, uniform coverage of all plant surfaces. Apply using ground equipment, chemigation or air unless otherwise specified under the crop comments or on supplemental labeling supplied by Albaugh.
- Use Recommendations
For best results, apply HexamiteTM at first sign of mites before adult mite build up. HexamiteTM will not control adult spider mites. Use higher rates on moderate to high mite infestations, large trees with dense foliage, or for extended residual control. The lowest rate of HexamiteTM may be used in conjunction with other IPM strategies, or for shorter residual control later in the season. The use of less than label rates is not recommended since it will result in poor performance and contribute to resistance development. If adult mites are present in medium to high populations, better results may be obtained using HexamiteTM in combination with a registered contact adulticide. HexamiteTM may be tank mixed with horticultural grade oil. Refer to all precautions regarding phytotoxicity on the oil label. Do not make more than one application of HexamiteTM per year

Safety & Health
- Restrictions
Do not graze or feed livestock on cover crops growing in treated areas. HexamiteTM is an emulsifiable concentrate to be diluted with water for application in commercial plantings only. Apply HexamiteTM prior to adult mite build up. HexamiteTM will not control adult spider mites. Use higher rates on moderate to high mite infestations or for larger plants with a dense canopy. If adult mites are present in medium to high populations, better results may be obtained using HexamiteTM in combination with a registered contact adulticide. The use of less than label rates is not recommended with HexamiteTM. Do not make more than one application of HexamiteTM or any other Hexythiazox product to the same crop per calendar year. Do not plant rotational crops other than those on this label within 120 days of this application.
