Not all products are permitted for use on orange, so always follow the label for details on proper use including adjuvants.

b

Significantly more reduction compared to untreated control (P<0.05). Duration of reduction is one number representing days significantly fewer D. citri were observed on treated trees compared to untreated trees. Magnitude of reduction is mean ± SEM calculated from reduction observed on multiple dates until significant effect was observed.
