Target Pests: Whiteflies (Bemisia, Trialeurodes, Lecanoideus), Aphids, Root Aphids, Thrips, Mealybugs
When spores of NoFly WP come into contact with the insect pest they attach to the body and begin to grow almost immediately. Once the spore germ tube penetrates the host cuticle, fungal multiplication takes place through formations of hyphal bodies in the host hemocoel. The NoFly microbe mechanically disrupts the host's internal organs and initiates tissue necrosis. This leads to lack of feeding, inactivity and eventually death. Insect pests sprayed with NoFly WP stop feeding in about 24 hours and are killed in about 5 days.
This organic wettable powder mycoinsecticide contains spores of the entomopathogenic fungus Isaria fumosoroseus strain FE 9901. This naturally occurring fungus is a common and aggressive predator of insect pests but is not a plant pathogenic organism and will not adversely affect beneficials (including bees). When the spores in NoFly WP come into contact with the insect pest, they will immediately attach themselves to the body. As they grow, the spore germ tub will penetrate the host body and fungal multiplication will begin through the formation of hyphal bodies inside the host insect's body. This process will disrupt the normal functions of the insect's internal organs and tissues, and it will stop feeding within 24 hours and die in 3-7 days.
