Syngenta Ardent Miticide

Ardent 0.15 is a generic equivalent to Avid 0.15EC. Both products share the same active ingredient, Abamectin, and provide the same level of efficacy for mite control.

Translaminar action means the product penetrates the leaf tissue and creates a reservoir of active ingredient inside the leaf. This allows it to control mites that are feeding on the underside of leaves, even if the spray didn't reach them directly.

Ardent 0.15 provides residual control for up to 28 days. Because it is slow-acting, you should expect it to immobilize mobile mite stages shortly after contact.

No, Ardent 0.15 is not safe for pets or children. You must keep them away from the treated area until the spray has completely dried and the area has been properly ventilated.

Ardent 0.15 is specifically labeled for use on ornamental plants in greenhouses and outdoor settings. It is not intended for use on food crops or edible plants.

Yes, Ardent 0.15 is not selective and is harmful to beneficial insects. You should avoid applying it when pollinators or other beneficials are active in the area.
