Apache EC 1.8% Abamectin Insecticide – Mite is listed at Agroprime for customers looking for reliable insect control products for gardening, agriculture and outdoor care.

Apache EC 1.8% is a broad-spectrum acaricide and insecticide formulated using Abamectin, a naturally derived compound extracted from the soil bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis. This product is highly effective against mites, leaf miners, thrips, and other insects that pose a serious threat to plant health and crop yields.

Apache EC features translaminar movement, meaning it penetrates leaf surfaces and reaches pests that are difficult to target using traditional contact sprays. This makes it ideal for use in greenhouses, field crops, orchards, and ornamental plants where pests are often hidden.

Thanks to its dual action—both ingestion and contact—it ensures rapid pest paralysis and death, while its residual effects reduce the need for frequent reapplication. Apache EC is formulated for ease of use, compatibility with most foliar sprays, and safe handling when applied according to label instructions.
