Introduction :
The active ingredient, milbemectin, is a mixture of natural endotoxins derived from soil microorganisms and is produced through a fermentation process. Ultiflora™ is a broad spectrum miticide that is active on all mite life stages. Ultiflora has minimal impact on beneficial arthropods, excellent crop safety, and carries a “Caution” signal word. 

Milbemectin is unique in that it acts not only as a contact miticide on all mite life stages but at sublethal levels, it also significantly reduces oviposition of exposed adult females.
