ArborSystems, a chemical manufacturer for tree care, added an Emamectin Benzoate insecticide-miticide for two-year control of Emerald Ash Borer to its direct-inject chemical line. The product is used in its Wedgle Direct-Inject Tree Injection System.
Boxer Insecticide-Miticide is available in 120 ml and 1000 ml Quick-Connect Chemical Packs. It is designed for the control of mature and immature insect and mite pests of deciduous, coniferous and palm trees on residential and commercial landscapes, parks, plantations, seed orchards and forested sites in private, municipal, state, tribal and national areas.
“Arborists, urban foresters and tree care professionals can now provide two-year control of EAB with no drilling damage using our new product, Boxer Insecticide-Miticide,” said Chip Doolittle, president of ArborSystems in Omaha, Neb. “Applicators can increase the number of trees treated per day using our advanced technology for tree treatment.”
Boxer contains the active ingredient Emamectin Benzoate and is formulated to translocate in the tree’s vascular system when injected. It must be placed into active sapwood and will actively control pests for up to two years.
The Wedgle is a no-drill tree treatment system. Also there is no need for power, pumps, mixing in the field, waiting for uptake of chemicals, guarding during draining process or return trips by applicators.
